Welcome to Body Shape Shifters

Thanks for finding us!

If you are over 35 and over 20lbs (18 kg) overweight you probably have a metabolism that is not working as well as it should.

The problem is that the older we get, the harder it is to stay fit, lose fat, or even keep the fat off. And if you are lucky enough to be reasonably lean – it seems almost impossible to get rid of those last few pounds.

Life is often not very fair – the closer we get to being 40 years old (and once we pass it!, our bodies begin to develop a strong reluctance to change the way they are right now. Our Bodies took a far while to get into the condition they are today and they seem to actively work against us when we try to get leaner and fitter.

Our bodies love homeostasis (the ‘let’s just keep things the way they are‘ control) and in order to change how we look and feel we need to shake things up and work against this innate physical ‘hardwiring’ of our bodies. If we don’t shake things up we won’t be able to achieve a new and diffferent state of homeostasis that works to give us less fat, more leanness, more fitness, and greater health.

It is a fact that our metabolism slows as we age, and it becomes harder to reset your body’s accepted point of  homeostasis . This ‘set-point’ determines the composition of our body and the longer we carry excess bodyfat the more used to it our body becomes and the more our body accepts this as the norm.

A broken metabolism makes it harder for us to alter the way we look & feel.

There is even more bad news – the older we get the more difficult it becomes to manipulate the hormones that our body produces to  control our body composition. Leptin, Ghrelin, Insulin, Estrogen, Testosterone & others –  the interaction of these hormones determines how  fat we are, how fat we get and how fat we remain

The good news is that most, if not all, of this is reversible. You can recondition your metabolism®, manipulate your hormones, alter your homeostasis set point, drop body fat and become leaner, healthier and sexier. You can definately start to LBN.*

Usually the advice on how to achieve this is that you have to eat like a rabbit, exercise for hours like an athlete and live like a monk. Or you have live off of shakes, or cut out all carbs, or all fats, or… you get the idea – many of the so-called solutions that are touted as the answer are unrealistic, unhealthy, short term fixes or just an outright scam.

All of these programs seem to miss the fact that:

Real people live real lives and have real responsibilities.

Spending hours a day at a gym may fit in when you are in your 20’s or even 30’s but for real adults, with real life responsibilities our obligations get in the way. But it is possible to alter your body shape, your body composition and still live a real life.

By reconditioning your metabolism, by manipulating your hormones through food, by tweaking your lifestyle you can turn back the clock and become leaner & healthier whilst still living a real life.

To move from pudgy, or fat, to lean & fit is not ever an easy battle, but it is not an impossible one, nor do you have to put your life on hold to achieve it. By reading this blog you’ve just taken an important first step on the way to changing how you look & feel.

Our mission is simple – we want to help everyone (especially those over 35) who feels overweight, out of shape, unsexy and tired to get in control their bodies, their  fitness and to take charge of their future…
