Jillian Michaels Review
Jillian Michaels is the famous, no-nonsense fitness trainer and weight loss guru from the popular TV shows The Biggest Loser and Losing it With Jillian, in addition to her numerous bestselling books, workout videos, and online program. Her concept of weight loss is vigorous exercise, healthy eating and behavior modification. Calories-in versus calories-out is the primary focus of her food plan, a stark contrast to the popular dieting obsession over what to eat.
On the weight loss competition show The Biggest Loser, Ms. Michaels serves as a coach to overweight and obese contestants, organizing and directing their daily exercise and food consumption. She has been the most succesfull coach on the show to date, garnering her lots of buzz and increasing fame, which has led to a starring role on a new reality show called Losing it with Jillian.
On the show, Jillian works with a different family each week to empart her own signature brand of tough love. She tackles the issues each family member faces and gives them the tools necessary to make bold lifestyle changes. She's controversial and in-your-face but she knows what works and aims to succeed at all costs. She doesn't waste people's time while taking their money like most other supposed weight loss experts. Great show!
Anyone can use Jillian Michaels' weight loss strategies with her interactive online program which has become very popular. It starts with a free personal profile and weight loss plan which asks you some basics questions about the type of activities you like to do, the types of food that cause you cravings, and questions regarding your body shape. From there, the personalized program recommends a course of exercise, a food plan and a behavior modification plan of attack. You are aided by online tools such as daily menus and recipes, an interactive weight tracker, fitness diary, calorie counter, online discussion groups and chat rooms. We love the online program better than the TV shows, books and workout videos because it gives you an interactive resource to manage your own independent weight loss program, where ultimately you become the expert.
