 What
is the process?
 The first step
is to set up an appointment to come in and see us or fill out the
nutritional analysis questionnaire and return it to us via the web,
email, or fax
(310.576.7856). If you choose to return the questionnaire via email or
fax, it would be beneficial to include front, side and back pictures of
yourself, especially if you’re interested in working with one of our trainers.
If you are more interested in the Nutrition Only program, pictures will
help us design the eating program more accurately and may allow us to
make some suggestions for resistance training or exercise. If you come
into our office, you will complete the Nutritional Analysis, after which
we will take your blood pressure and conduct a complete interview.
From looking at your body in person or in pictures, we will prepare a body
“blueprint” which will give your trainer an exact prescription so that they are
able to shrink what needs to be shrunk, lift what needs to be lifted, and
enhance the body parts and muscle groups you are not happy with.
Your eating program will include five to seven meals per day consisting of the
correct foods to stimulate your metabolism and interact correctly with any
medications you are on. If you have medical concerns, we will need to work with
your doctor. Your eating program will help you retain and gain muscle tissue,
speed up your metabolic rate, and lose body fat quickly, safely and naturally.
You will send in your weekly eating log, tracking your weight and meals, which
will enable us to change your eating program as necessary, all the way to your
goal. When you do get to your goal, we will design a maintenance program so
that you can stay there.
You will weigh yourself weekly, and your trainer will periodically take your
measurements to track your body’s changes. If you choose the Nutrition Only
program, your individual program will be sent to you within 48 hours. You will
have one full year of program support with your exercise and eating program,
whether it takes you six weeks or twelve months to achieve your goal.

Why
will this program work for me when nothing else has?
The reason this
program will work for you is fourfold.
1. The only way to lose weight and change your body is through diet and
exercise.
2. The only way to lose weight with diet is by eating more of the foods
that work with your unique body.
3. The only way to change the body with exercise is not by killing
yourself but to exercise correctly for your unique body.
4. The way the preceding three points are dealt with so that results are
guaranteed is by customizing a program to the individual. No two people are the
same. It will work because the entire program is customized to you! We know
what works for each person.

What
type of "Diet" is this?
This is not a diet!
You will be eating, not starving, to lose weight. As no two people are the
same, the eating plan will be different for each individual. Your personalized
eating plan will be adjusted according to:
· How you feel
· What medical conditions you may have and what medications you may be taking
including hormones, antidepressants, etc.
· What you look like (body shape/type)
· Any other variables that may affect your metabolism
· How fast you are losing body fat/weight
· Your taste and lifestyle

Will
I need to take medications or buy your foods?
The eating plan does
NOT include any drug taking nor require you to buy any of our foods. Our system
is based on real knowledge, service and results.

What
makes you different from other programs on the market?
Programs that
promise quick results without diet and exercise and require you to take drugs
and/or buy their products can be (and in many case are) very dangerous.
Weight loss programs that require you to buy their packaged "food" products can
be bad for your metabolism and even your health. In the long run, they may be
worse for you than what you may be eating now. And of course when you stop
eating their "food" or taking their drugs, chances are the weight comes right
back.
Our program includes cardiovascular exercise and eating habit modification,
which is necessary for a weight loss program to be effective. Programs that do
not include both of these elements are at best minimally effective, if at all.
Finally, we take all of your individual characteristics, such as medical
conditions, into account when designing your program.

How
good are the trainers?
Each trainer that
comes to Body Makeover Systems is put through a stringent assessment process.
They must:
· have a minimum of 2-4 years experience in personal training
· have an athletic background
· be recommended by another trainer or doctor that works with Body Makeovers
· have the required credentials: a degree in a related field or certification
from an accredited school
They are then put through an intense training class combined with a hands-on
internship under the guidance of Michael Thurmond. This process may take up to
one year to complete.

I am
already a member of a gym. Do I have to join one of your facilities?
Each trainer works
out of a particular facility. Due to the number of clients that each trainer
works with, it would be impossible for him/her to travel to each home or gym.
The price of the membership is included in your overall package and will not
exceed the price you are quoted. During your program, you will have complete
access to the facility where your trainer is located for twelve weeks.

Compared
to other weight loss programs, is it affordable?
Comparatively
speaking, the 6 Week Body Makeover program (approximately $1,600 - $1,800)
is more complete and affordable than anything currently offered. We also
offer a customized nutrition only program for clients that live out of
our full service area or cannot do the entire program. We are currently
working with clients all over the world on this program. The nutrition
only program is available through fax, e-mail, and by phone, and the cost
is $500 for 6 weeks.

Does
this program really work?
Simply put, this
program works completely if you do what you are instructed to do.
Back to top
Will
I maintain my new body after the program is over?
You will be
given a maintenance program at the end of your six weeks, and you have
the option of having us monitor you for only $19.99 per month thereafter.
