6 Day Body Makeover



Recommended Posts

Has anyone here tried this program? I just borrowed the book from my library and started reading it. It's by Michael Thurman the guy that does all that amazing body makeover stuff with the people on Extreme Makeovers.

Originally I believe his program was the 6 "Week" Body Makeover. This one is the 6 "Day" Body Makeover. He says you can loose a pants size or up to 10 pounds in one week. I'll let you know more about it as I read the book. I hope someone out there can give me their opinion. I have lost 62 lbs. over the past 2 years with my band but have been making very poor food choices lately and have be going in the wrong direction. I thought by trying something like this is would give me the motivation I had at the beginnning of this journey. Also I figure if I could do the liquid diet as well as I did pre surgery and for the 2 weeks post surgery, I could certainly try something for one week.

Thanks

This came up on another thread a few months back. Do a search for Thurman? The concensus was don't spend your money. If you can get the book for free at the library, you are doing very well to glean to good info without spending a fortune. Good luck!! Hey, and get BACK on the BANDwagon, you!!!! (Okay, that's your kick in the pants for the day) :)

I agree that there are a lot of ways to kick-start weight loss and clean out your system for pennies. Search the internet or ask around your local health food store. Maybe if I see someone else do it, I will, too. I have some great colon cleanse pills from a health food grocery chain that work wonders for under $20.00.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
