My Weight-loss Adventure

This Blog is a chronicle of the weight-loss adventure I began on June 12, 2003 with Michael Thurmond's Six Week Body Makeover program, which is available at www.provida.com. It contains my story and the tools I have used to assure success along the way.

Infomercial photos

Six Week Body Makeover 2005 Infomercial

I was one of 18 losers on the Michael Thurmond Six Week Body Makeover, who was chosen to participate in the filming of the new 2005 informercial. There were 17 of us from the U.S. and one from Canada. Two were male and the remainder were female. On the weekend of Sept. 9-12, 2005, we were flown to Burbank, CA and given the royal or star treatment. We had private hotel rooms, a driver, had our hair and makeup done, and had the advice of the wardrobe people. It was an exciting time and the best part was that we got to meet Michael Thurmond himself. At this point (11-3-05) I have lost 146 lbs. on this program and 181 lbs. in all from the time I started trying to lose weight in 2002. The following photos were taken that weekend. Enjoy!!!
Karen, who told us what to expect and who did my telephone interview!
