The Six Week Body Makeover started with helping children in the San Francisco area improve their self esteem and learn goal setting. The project was a great success and the parents encouraged Michael Thurmond to expand his business to adults! Body Makeover Systems was recently honored with a congressional award for our “Mind, Body, Action” program. A physical fitness and healthy eating program conducted for teenagers and parents in partnership with the Montebello Parks and Recreation department. “Mind, Body, Action” aims to help battle childhood obesity by motivating kids to exercise regularly and to develop healthy eating habits. They are taught to set goals, visualize them and then take the steps necessary to reach them. 

This unique program designed to educate and empower teens to grow embracing a healthy lifestyle has seen inspirational changes. In 2009 The Six Week Body Makeover was introduced to Olympic High School in Santa Monica. The program drew a great mix of students and staff members and produced exemplary results.   

Body Makeover Systems is always looking for schools and youth programs to partner with to promote healthy weight loss and lifestyle habits in children, teens and their parents. Childhood obesity is a systemic problem and the solution must include everyone who makes up the student’s support system. The Six Week Body Makeover fits perfectly between scheduled holidays and school breaks and empowers schools to continue the program indefinitely.
