I purchased this product, received it, and used it. I have had nothing but success. Yes of course! the telemarketers ask you repeatedly, they work on commission lol. This program is drastic, but it is for people who need to make a drastic change mostly. It can help everyone, but Micheal Thurmond himself said this program is for people whos lives depend on it. I am 21 and was over 100lbs overweight. Nothing worth doing is easy, and this program will test you, but in no way is it unhealthy or an unscrupulous company. Good Luck to all!

This eating program is not a fad! It's a healthy, balanced diet. Remember the food pyramid? Well- here it is. This program is amazing. I actually bought the progam back in 2004. I followed it for 3 weeks- lose 15 pounds and then stopped because I was not diligent enough to prepare the food. I now am doing it again with my husband and we're doing great. What is amazing to me is that in the 4 years that have passed since the 1st time I tried the program- none of the foods or methods listed have been proven as fad's or gimics. The program is solid and focused on eating healthy and working out. Basic concept in theory- just hard for some people to do. To everone out there that is thinking of buying and trying it. DO it. It does work! READ all the amazing sucess stories and you will see that the complaints about the program are about ordering errors and what seems to me as user error. No Complaints about the program itself.

I ordered the 6WBM (Six Week Body Makeover), about 5 weeks ago, I was told it would take about 2 weeks to arrive and it got here exactly 2 weeks after I ordered it...there haven't been any additional charges on my card and the weight is coming off and I feel so much better. I get to eat good foods and I get to eat a lot of them! I love the body sculpting plan as well! I have just entered into my 3rd week and I have already lost 13 inches off of my body! 13 inches within two weeks! I recommend this product to ANYONE who needs to lose weight and make a lifestyle change.

I bought this program 3 weeks ago. I have 50lbs to lose and have stuck to it religously. I have lost 21 lbs in 3 weeks! This is not a program for anyone without willpower, you will be changing all of your eating habits and removing many foods you enjoy. However if you are serious about changing your life and losing weight I would highly recommend the program. I have yet to be charged for anything I did not order. The online purchase process tries to get you to buy other extras...just say no! Many of the complaints here sound like they are coming from people who thought this was going to be some kind of miracle do nothing diet....It doesn't exist people, you need to stop eating fattening foods and get some excersise!!! This plan works!

I was very pleased w this product, and all of the information received (though it was quite a bit) was very useful and helpful. It was worth my time, money and effort in all ways. It was indeed hard work (what real diet plan is not) I found the foods permitted to be healthy and tasty. I also found the support of other users to be very helpful. My weight loss goal is 50 lbs to lose, I have so far lost 12 of those pounds in 3 weeks. I also am no longer suffering from heartburn and diarriah (spelling?)

When ordering online you do have to pay attention to what you are clicking OR you will purchase extra things. HOWEVER, this plan definitely works!
I have lost 55lbs in 5 months and I lost 9 lbs my first week. I am reading a lot of entries of people that 'tried' it or 'read through it'. For these people, NO plan will ever work, it is that attitude that may have led to their obesity in the first place.
I had no problems with charges, shipping, unwanted products, etc. I have a friend doing it with me and has lost 35 lbs.
If you are considering this plan, BUY IT! It will be one of the best investments you will ever make. It actually does what it says, but it will take lifestyle adjustments. Don't miss this opportunity just because of unrelated problems with shipping or charges, etc.
I promote this plan daily as people are amazed at my weight loss.

The product works just as described. I lost 44 pounds in 6 weeks. You must stick to the plan. Its hard but if it was easy would we even need the plan.
My suggestions are order online and opt out of every add-on they offer.
Go to the store and purchase a visa gift card. The company can't keep charging you if there is no money on the card. They will call you, but at that point you have the upper hand.
Good luck!

I was not going to buy this product because I was torn between the pluses and minuses of the messages.
I bought it knowing I would be able to send it back in 30 days if I wasn\'t satisfied.
Well, I must say after 8 days I am hooked! I find the program to be helpful and a healthy challenge. If you are truly ready to lose weight and change your life this program will help you do it.
I loved the fact that I didn\'t have to read every single thing and could start the program right away. I live alone and was worried about tons of left overs as I don\'t really care for them, but many of the recipes in the book included are single serving ones.
8 days and down 11 pounds, now I know most is water weight, but it\'s a start on the road to being slimmer.
For those that have not enjoyed the program, put your product on ebay and let someone who is ready for the experience take it.
Also, as the program states it\'s 6 weeks and from there you are living lean with great meals and help all the way.

I bought the program for a paltry $120 bucks in 2005. In 6 weeks I lost 25 pounds; in 4 months, nearly 60 pounds.
Yes, you MUST follow plan for it to work. If you cheat even a little with salty, fatty foods, it will not work.
I mean, if you buy a plan, but don't follow it, can you really say it doesn't work?
Never had any problems with the billing. Never signed up for auto vitamin shipments, but I never would have.
A lot of people sign up for stuff on impulse and when they regret it, they decide to deride the company for their own mistakes.

I have been on just about every plan that there is and have lost and gained the same 20lbs. and some. So when i saw the infomercial and listen to how much sense it made, I decided to purchase the program. I placed the order online without any issues and started the program on 4/13/08. My start weight was 213 and as of this morning, 5/04/08, ending the third week, I weighed 203. I\'m doing the customized exercises and walking atleast three times per week. The plan is a bit detailed and you do have to prepare the meals for the week, but if you\'re serious and really want to make a change then you have to be disciplined. My goal was to change my eating habits and the 6BMO really has changed my mindset towards food altogether. I really don\'t miss the salt, sugar or bread, or dairy (except for in my 1/2 cup of coffee in the morning), but once I get the amount of weight off that I\'m shooting for, I will know how to manipulate the plan to accommodate the once in awhile \"hankering\" and still lose the weight. This plan is truly a lifestyle change. If you haven\'t made up in your mind that you are ready for that change then this plan is not for you.

Yes this program works if you follow the plan. It is the best program out there. I eat every 3 hours and I am never hungry.
The only thing is you have to be prepared with meals so you do not cheat.

I LOVE this program! My husband bought it for "us" in October 2006. It took me a few days to read and assemble the material and I admit the first couple weeks were awful. I agreed to try it for the full 6 weeks before sending it back. When the 6 weeks were up I had lost 26 LB's and 20 inches, so I was hooked! I have lost a total of 45 LB's and 25 inches, dropped 4 sizes. If the program is followed it works. I follow the maintenance portion and have not gained anything back and it has been almost 2 years. The only problem I had was the bands. I do not have a door that I can use them on. I never received anything other than the program and our card was billed 6 payments only of $19.99. BTW, my husband never tried the program and he is still fat!

I actually just ordered this product based on some of the success stories appearing outside of the 6WBM website. I have read most of the complaints posted on this website. It seems to me that so many of the complaints are based around their financial difficulties, that no one really had anything all that negative to say about the actual product. There are several complaints about how people were over charged, and billed twice for their orders. Well, being the Assistant Branch Manager at a bank, my suggestions are this...1) Go to your bank, and fill out an EFT dispute form. 2) Print out a copy of your confirmation to submit as evidence. 3) Sit back and wait. That bank does the work for you. They will conduct the invesigation, and even if it hasn't been resolved within 10 business days...Guess What People! The bank gives you your money back. But, all the lack of complaints on the actual product only does one thing for me...makes me even more excited to try it, because it must work!

I ordered this program via the phone and I got exactly what I ordered in a record time (a week). I finally started it last summer and within weeks, I noticed a huge change. First week I lost 6 lbs (I weighed 192 to start), and every week after I lost about 2.5 lbs. I followed the plan exactly, immersed myself in the forums at provida\'s website and was amazed. I had not been able to loose weight with any other product and not only did I loose the weight- It helped my chronic illnesses of Fibromyalgia and Costochondritis SO MUCH that I was able to return to work, get off all of my medications, and now even my dr\'s are amazed at how healthy I am. So if you have an illness such as diabetes, chronic fatigue, migraines, then you have nothing to loose and a life to get back with this program. You can find me on the forums with my screen name of thatgroovychic if you wish to see my results and get more information!!!! Oh- Now I weigh 146 & size 6/8!

I bought this program and have been on it for 8 weeks. I have lost almost 40lbs and my husband has lost over 30lbs. It is hard to stick to but I ordered online have been being billed my 19.99 a month have recieved no extra charges and recieved no pills because I read the entire thing I was agreeing to and clicked all the places I needed to so that I wouldn't get charged. I think that it should be common sense to READ what your submitting so that you know what your being charged for.

I have tried all the diet fads out there, and this program DOES work. But you have to follow the plan exactly as it is laid out for you. I have lost 32 pounds in 6 weeks. And am continuing for another 6 weeks. Thank you Michael Thurmond, You ROCK!!!!!!! I LOST 20 LBS JUST BY EATING HOW, WHAT ,and when he tells you then I started the excercises and quickly lost the next 12 lbs. I did not order any of the extras just the basic program. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR YOUR 6 WEEKS STARTS NOW! get IT AND GO FOR IT!!!!!!

My name is Juan F. Perez. Michael Thurmond and I developed this product over 10 years ago, base on the knowledge acquired since He started Body Makeover Systems Inc. in 1985. Its based on fact. Yes its hard, anything in life that is worthwhile requires hard work to succeed. We have never had a client who commit themselves to the program fail.I am sorry that some of youare having a hard time with the product. If you stick to it works. I gets easier as you go on. As for the problems with Provida Michael and I are always trying to improve customer relations, they are an independent Corp. We can only do so much. You can also do the regular monitored program visit www.bodymakeovers.com Sincerely. Juan F. Perez

It seems that quite a few complaints are based on the lack of flavor. I myself have no imagination when it comes to cooking and was a little concerned about the lack of salt or sugar, but they have a website with forums where people contribute a ton of different recipes that are in line with the requirements of the program...and they're delicious. I've made evrything from Orange Roughy in a Lemon Sauce to Potato Chips to Bananas Foster for dessert. It's all good an, sure there's a lot of cooking, but if you just spend some time in the kitchen on Sunday, it pays off during the week. The only way I can imagine this program not working is if you don't actually follow what it says.

I came to this site before I ordered the 6 week body make over. I almost didn't purchase it because of all the complaints here, but I realized the complaints were with customer service and not the plan itself. I ordered online. Got exactly what I ordered. Was billed correctly and it came in about a week. I ordered this right after Christmas Dec. 26 and had received it by Jan. 3. I've never had any contact with customer service so I can't say how the people are. What I will say is that this life style works and its something I can do for the rest of my life. I've had to teach myself to eat differently, learning which foods to eat at which times and with certain combinations that help the body burn the fuel. Its slightly restrictive, but I've found ways to eat similar flavors to all the tastes that I craved before. I was an italian food nut, so I found recipe on their forum that worked for me and I've satisfied those cravings. I've just completed week 5 and I'm down 28 lbs. I did no exercise with this until week 4 and added it then so I could actually burn the extra energy I had. I see people on the website fail this plan and that's because they don't try. Its not always easy and the first 10 days are horrible but after that its second nature. If you only 1/2 hearted about it don't spend the money on this. If you really are committed to a life change then welcome aboard. It will work if you follow the plan 100% and are committed.
