I did the 6 weeks initially and lost 15 pounds. Then I went absolutely berserk when I was at the forensic training for a week last month. I did gain 2 pounds, but then when I got back on the program for a week, I lost 8 pounds, for a net total of 23 pounds. I've had days on and days off (mostly intentionally) until I get past the birthday lunch the office is doing for me this coming Wednesday. After that, I plan to do another 6 week stretch, after which, I will go on the maintainance plan.
When I first got the program and listened to the CD's and Michael T. was saying that if you follow the program there is no way in can NOT work, there was a part of me that was thinking, "yeah, right. You haven't had to deal with MY challenges." But I have to admit now that he was right, and if it will work for me, it will work for anybody who is physically capable of working it. There are also modifications built in for special medical conditions that preclude certain aspects of the program. In fact, the whole program is very customized, which I expect is what accounts for its high success rate. The reason I bought the program in the first place was that I really admire Michael Thurmond and was already convinced that he knew what he was talking about. My trust was well-placed in this case, and if I ever met the guy, I'd give him a huge hug and tell him that he's my hero.
