Jillian Michaels Diet – Online Program Better Than “The Biggest Loser” TV Show?

Jillian Michaels is famous for being a tough love trainer on the TV show The Biggest Loser. She is also well known for her pink shirts. In the past, three of The Biggest Losers have been people on Jillian’s plan. Because of her past success, Jillian’s program is now available online. But does this online version measure up to the success of the hugely popular show?

First, like the contestants that are lucky enough to be on The Biggest Loser, acknowledging that you want to improve your health is the first step. Yet getting chosen for the show is liken to winning the lottery, so many “real” people outside reality television have to do it on their own. Secondly, the past three winners have lost 140, 110 and 112 pounds, respectively. They had two professional trainers, state-of-the-art gym equipment, healthy food and doctors at their fingertips.

Still, as the contestants that have gone home early and lost amazing amounts of weight have proven, it is possible to do it on your own. Jillian Michaels provides you with a customized plan and interactive tools to help you achieve your goal. While she won’t be there to push you in the flesh, her “tough love” attitude is evident in this online program.

The website gives you a visual of Jillian’s Biggest Loser plan that is customized for you. First, you input your weight, height, and age. This takes you to a short questionnaire about your lifestyle. You will be asked about your goals for weight loss, your current exercise regimen, cardio activities you enjoy, your body type, foods you crave and certain injuries you may be sustaining. It then gives you immediate, enthusiastic feedback about your body type and what exercises and food choices you should adhere to.

Though Jillian’s straightforward approach is evident on the website, and may motivate you to click ahead, you will soon find that there is a $4/week fee to use this program. It may be worth it, though, and could be an effective part of your weight loss plan. By joining the plan you get access to Jillian’s advice, online buddies for support, behavior modification information, calorie calculators, recipes and meal plans, printable exercises and fitness advice videos. It’s always important to start a weight loss program with permission from your doctor. And, it may help to wear that pink-colored shirt.
