This is what Michael Thurmond says about his Six Week Body Makeover:
Before receiving the plan you need to make an appointment or fill out the nutritional analysis questionnaire in order to be assessed for your body type and your body “blueprint” in order to receive an individualized eating and exercise program.
The eating plan would consist of five to seven meals per day and include foods that are supposed to stimulate your metabolism and interact correctly with medications if you are taking any. This eating program should speed up your metabolic rate, help you retain and gain muscle tissue and enable you to lose body fat quickly and safely. You are required to send in your eating and exercising logs every weeks, so that modifications can be made to your program if found necessary.
After reaching your desired weight, you will be given a maintenance program, so you can stay there.
You can choose to exercise with a trainer (if you live in Southern California) or do the exercises by watching a video sent to you within Nutrition Only program.
The reason that this diet is supposed to be successful is because it involves dieting and exercising, which is the only way to lose weight. Further more, the eating plan and exercises are designed to fit your own body type and it is additional reason the plan should work for you.
Six Week Body Makeover program doesn’t include buying any medications, pills or specific foods from them. All that the program includes are cardiovascular exercise and eating habit modifications necessary for any weight loss program to be effective.
The 6 Week Body Makeover program costs between $1,600 - $1,800 for the full program, $500 for 6 weeks of the nutrition only program and $5,500 per week for the in-spa program.
For those who don’t have time to cook but can afford it, there’s an in-home chef catering service that includes a minimum food order of $250, plus delivery charge.
This is what others have said about Michael Thurmond’s Six Week Body Makeover:
Making meals 5-7 times a day is too time consuming and tiring
The meals are tasteless and very low in calorie because the plan eliminates all salt, added sugars and most fat.
The foods include a lot of lean protein and limited vegetables and grains.
Drinking 12 glasses of water each day is essential but you don’t have a desire to drink water when eating foods without salt
Thurmond recommends slow to moderate levels of exercise. However, they may be hard to do if only seen on videos and without a personal trainer
Some people believe the program is not healthy as it is too low in calories and certain nutrients.
The plan is very hard to stick to due to the tasteless foods and the fact that you need to eat 5-7 times a day (eating smaller meals a few times a day is a general weight loss formula)
It is not a good long-term weight loss program but it could be good for those looking to lose around 5 to 10 pounds
People who had purchased this dieting plan from infomercials had problems with getting their money-back guarantee. The company they purchased the diet from kept referring them to the Makeover Headquarters for a refund while the Headquarters claimed they had no say over refunding a purchase made outside their original store.
