Does the 6 Week Body Makeover Work?
Does the 6 Week Body Makeover work? This is a question that is asked by many people that are planning on purchasing the program, or have heard about the program through an infomercial.
Yes, the Michael Thurmond diet program does work and you’ll lose a lot of weight. However, the only way that you will lose weight on this program is by sticking to the eating program. You will not lose weight if you fall off the plan and go back to your regular eating habits.
The basis of the program is to re-train your eating habits and within a 6 week duration. The reason why you need to retrain your eating habits is because your current eating habits and food choices are making you fat. Your metabolism and lean muscle mass is the number one factor for weight loss. I’m sure the majority of you that are reading this post right now do not have enough lean muscle mass to burn the amount of calories needed to lose weight.
More lean muscle equals an increase in metabolism. Another way to increase your metabolism is by eating foods that will help you with your weight loss goals. Foods react differently when consumed by different body types. Foods that help burn fat and build muscle for some people may not burn fat for another person. Determining what types of foods you need to eat to burn fat starts with building your 6 week body blueprint.
The Michael Thurman 6 Week Body Blueprint is a building block for determining what type of body you have.
Basically, it’s a questionnaire that asks you about your lifestyle, eating habits, ideal weight, weight loss goals, body characteristics and hunger level. You will be assessed as a body type A, B, C, D or E after you have answered all of the questions. Without the blue print, you will not be able to go onto the next step of your eating program, which is customizing your own fat burning meal plan.
Your 6 Week Body customized meal plan will insure that you lose the weight that you currently have problems with. You can choose from the accelerated fat loss program, Infinite Menu Planner or a mix of both. The accelerated fat loss program is an eating program that allows you to lose the maximum amount of weight. The Infinite Menu Planner is a food book that allows you to choose the foods that you want to eat and still lose a lot of weight.
The key to this program is to eat more. The more you eat the more you will lose. Many people are confused by this theory because they think overconsumption is the reason they’re fat in the first place. Eating more meals doesn’t necessarily mean you are eating more food. On the 6 week diet program you will eat more meals, however the meals are very light and are packed full of nutritious foods (that you prepare). More meals throughout the day will keep you full all the time and allow your metabolism to think that it’s OK to burn more calories.
Your metabolism controls how many calories your body burns throughout the day. Obviously, the higher your metabolism, the higher amount of calories burned in a day. Your goal on this program is to allow your metabolism to be a”hot burning fire” and burn consume all the fuel that you feed it. The food that you eat on this program will be the perfect for your “fire” which will allow you to burn the fat calories that are stored within your body.
Lastly, if you want to burn even more calories, you will have to exercise. Many people want to lose weight without exercising. You will lose weight without exercising by simply eating the meals; however, you will burn more calories if you perform 18 minutes of exercises twice a week. 36 minutes of exercises in a week does not sound awful and will greatly impact how much weight you lose.
The way to lose weight with the body sculpting program is by using the body blue print cards and locating your problem areas. Your problem areas are the fattest parts of your body. These problem areas store the most fat and your goal throughout the program is to increase lean muscle mass in these areas so that you can burn the maximum amount of fat.
Are you ready to take your blueprint now that you know a little bit about how the 6 Week Body Makeover?
Michael Thurman 6 Week Body Makeover Complaints
“I didn’t lose weight on the Michael Thurman 6 Week Body Makeover. It’s a big scam”. I’ve read so many post stating this and other similar complains about the Michael Thurman diet. I’m tired of people whining about not losing weight on this diet and want to address some of the issues that I’ve seen. I’m currently using the Michael Thurman makeover and am going to make an unbiased opinion about my results and what I’ve observed so for from my body makeover. Have I lost weight on the Michael Thurman body makeover? Yes, however my weight loss is not as much as others who have taken the program as I have modified the plan to better suit my needs (I eat more within my portions, however I exercise more).
The important question is: Will you lose weight?
Absolutely, as a matter of fact, you will lose A LOT of weight as long as you stick to the meal plan. Even though many people complain about this program, the majority of the times they claim that they HAVE lost weight. Isn’t that the whole point of the program? I guess everyone needs something to complain about because even though they’ve stated that they lost weight, they still need to complain about a certain aspect of the program.
What is the reason why you’ll lose weight on the Michael Thurman Six Week Body Makeover?
It’s because you are eating more meals throughout the day…well I wouldn’t call them meals because the portions are considered more like snacks to me. However, because you are eating around 6 small meals a day, you won’t feel hungry as it feels like you are constantly eating. This is why the Michael Thurman program works so well. Your metabolism gets tricked into thinking that there is no shortage of food and will burn calories (energy) at a faster rate.
Many people complain that the diet is too restrictive.
I agree that this diet is restrictive, especially for body types A, B & C. These diets are restrictive because they are DIETS. That’s whole part about losing weight, it’s not supposed to be about eating everything that you want and eating unhealthy foods (that’s the reason why you gained weight and want to diet in the first place). I would say that once you are committed to losing weight, then you should start the program. This meal plan is going to kick your butt, however you will lose a lot of weight fast and the results are well worth it. So it all depends on this question, “how much are you willing to sacrifice to have a health and thinner body?” Are you willing to give up the chocolate bar or scoop of double fudge ice cream? Some people say that the diet is too restrictive and that they need to wean into the diet. I believe that these people have not fully committed themselves to losing weight and will fail, REGARDLESS of what diet they are on.
Sure you can buy processed, prepackaged and frozen meals and have a variety of foods (these meals have high calories by the way, the portions are just smaller). You will pay a ton for microwave lean cuisines and will end up eating three of them which defeats the purpose of buying small portions in the first place. You need to be disciplined and most people don’t have what it takes to lose weight.
Many people want to lose weight without doing anything. Everyone is always looking for the easy way out in life and the convenient way. So many people are lazy and will consider liposuction over exercise to lose fat. These type of people do not deserve to lose weight and probably won’t because they are always seeking the “magic bullet”.
The Michael Thurman Six Week Body Makeover teaches you how to eat healthy for a lifetime, not just for a short duration of time. I think of the meal plans as a common sense solution to losing weight. It’s very simple: eat less, eat healthy and exercise a bit and you will lose weight. Here’s an even simpler model: Output of calories should be greater than your input of calories equals weight loss.
You won’t lose a ton of weight overnight, but you will lose weight in the long run…and that’s what everyone should shoot for. In the long-run, once you learn how to eat healthy and exercise more, you will keep the weight off indefinitely. Look at stars like Kristie Alley who’s endorsed such products as Jenny Craig. Yes, she lost weight…but now look at her! She’s ready to explode!
The main point is that you will lose weight on the Michael Thurman diet, that’s only IF you follow the meal plan. The people who say they didn’t lose weight did not follow the Michael Thurman plan. If they honestly had to answer the question “did you follow the meal plan?” I’m sure they would say no. The Michael Thurman meal plan is a no brainer and it’s inevitable that you will lose weight. All body types will lose weight as the intake of calories will be less than the output of calories.
Also, people complain that they gain all the weight back when they go off the diet. Well, what do you expect? You are eating healthy and then suddenly you start eating fried brownies, of course you’re going to gain all the weight back. This whole meal plan is about eating healthy for the long-run. It’s not a fad diet that will make you lose weight fast. This program will teach you how to eat healthy so that you can stay lean forever on the Michael Thurman 6 Week body makeover.
