❤My Video about BodySlims - • The Weight Loss Progra...
In today's video I'm putting your questions to Gerard Moran also known as the "Weight Whisperer" and the man behind the incredible BodySlims programme. The programme that I used to help me lose 183 lbs. There were so many questions we didn't get to answer them all but let us know in the comments if you would like a part 2.
Join me here and on my Instagram (bit.ly/halfofc...) as I share my journey to continuously show up for myself!

Brilliant! Gerard is such a talker. I am saving up for the following B.S. I have already started intermittent fasting, 16-8. I know my next step is reliable walking daily for an hour. I am working up to it. Today I got 30 minutes. Tomorrow will be 31+. 💜💜💜💟
Well done! Small progress wins :)
Thanks for answering questions I didn't even realise I had 😅 both of ye are an inspiration ❤ about to start bs for the first time, feeling more reassured and excited ☺️ thank you 😁👍🏻
It always makes me chuckle when people join a program then want to change it to suit what they’re currently doing. If what you’re doing isn’t working then why not try the program the way it’s written?
To answer the question of what you can do before it begins, I would say to begin walking so that on the first day you’re able to do the 60 minutes with no difficulty and to keep it up for the 10 weeks (and hopefully beyond.)
Bodyslims is life changing !!! Bottom line ! Best 25$ a week I have ever spent . It has given me confidence and a desire form good habits in the rest of my life .
Carla my blood pressure is down, I feel better . Thanks to seeing you on utube I started this plan. You are helping saving lives ! You really are !
Are you in the US?

Bodyslims is amazing, down 33 lbs since the start of the April program and have maintained my goal weight since September. I'm a believer, the best life changing program ever. Eternally grateful, Carol 💜

💜💜
Awww my 2 best friends that ive never met but both are helping me change my life
when the student is ready; the teacher will appear! xx love this video!
Great vid and top quality content.
It was an amazing journey to do BS for the first and successful time. 100% commitment meant no wine (OMG) or lazy carbs like bread pasta etc. (OMG). If you had said to me early 2023 that I would change my habits, eliminate wine etc for 10 weeks and feel really satisfied with an alternative focus I would have run away. My daughter who had completed one course successfully had decided to do a follow up to finish the journey. (Original size 14 to size 8. Well done to her and she’s luvving it).
She persuaded me to give it a go. It wasn’t her weight loss that was inspiring although it was really visible. It was her confidence, self belief, motivation, appreciation and kindness towards herself.
I watched the seminar and listened to the audio of it EVERY DAY until the next one.
Positive whispers every night. Just saying.
It’s 8 weeks since completion of April course ended July 5th with 28lbs loss achieved.
As Gerard says the pay back is there every day. Clothes fitting well. Climbing stairs easily. Body discomfort gone. This programme is gold standard.
Just about to start my second round.Really excited.The course is brilliant for weight loss but fantastic for mental health!
Best thing I’ve ever done.
Hi Carla, I’m making this comment with nothing but respect, but honestly this whole video was a little bit worrying in that a lot of what Bodyslims advises seems to be directly counter to most modern weight loss science. There might be a good reason for that, and I would love to be proven wrong, but there are several points in particular that really, really worried me. It would be amazing to have these addressed in some way 😊
1. Why does Bodyslims encourage members to be in such a large calorie deficit? I know that no specific numbers are discussed in the video, but given that Gerard says members frequently say, ‘I’m going to be starving!’ and looking at some of your ‘What I eat in a day’ videos, it’s clear that the calorie limits are pretty low. Most of the science shows that the best way to lose weight, and keep it off, is gradually, with a moderate calorie deficit. Could you explain why Bodyslims encourages a large calorie deficit?
2. Why is weight training discouraged? Weight training has been shown time and time and time again to be excellent for fat loss and has a slew of health benefits. Why on earth would it be discouraged, especially when the person asking the question already said they loved weight training? Surely encouraging someone to break a fantastic healthy habit just for the sake of following a programme is dogmatic and counterintuitive?
3. The question about how Bodyslims is different to other slimming clubs wasn’t really answered in any meaningful way. When you said, ‘It works,’ well, any slimming club can claim to work if you follow the programme to the letter. Go to Slimming World, Weight Watchers, Cambridge Weight Plan, Exante diet, and god knows how many others, and their websites and PR materials all have tens, if not hundreds, of success stories showing members who lost huge amounts of weight using their programmes. Anecdotes and individual success stories are not proof that Bodyslims is any better than any other weight loss programme. What’s the long-term success rate? How many members stick the programme out? How many members maintain that weight loss once they’ve lost it? You said a lot about behaviour change… isn’t every weight loss programme about behaviour change to some extent? The only tangible differences I could see is the 10-week cycles as opposed to being every week.
4. When you said ‘You can eat whatever you want’, that isn’t something unique or different about Bodyslims. Most weight loss programmes claim you can eat whatever you want, as long as you remain in a calorie deficit. In fact, given that Bodyslims seems to keep calories very low, you’re probably less likely to be able to eat what you want on Bodyslims than on other weight loss programmes.
5. Regarding loose skin. Gerard is absolutely correct that you can’t ‘tone’ loose skin per se, but weight training can absolutely improve the appearance of loose skin by ‘filling out’ the void left behind by losing fat. Again, given that we as a society seem to have, thankfully, moved past the ‘weight training will make me bulky’ assumption, it’s really strange to have it be actively discouraged as part of Bodyslims.
Please don’t take this comment as being hateful or rude, I promise it isn’t intended to be! It’s just that there are some aspects, e.g. discouraging weight training, large calorie deficit etc., which are odd given the latest research. Hope that makes sense and thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this 😊
Hi Jessica
Hope I can help answer a few 😊
Bodyslims is not extreme at all .. people can feel fearful starting any weightloss regime and one of the fears .. afraid of being hungry /starving .. but people can eat loads on the program
Weight training is not promoted only while on the program .. 10 weeks . Bodyslims is not anti weight training . Gerard does explain this in the video . We get hundreds of gym goers who come to us , shift the weight and resume the gym after the 10 weeks 👍
Bodyslims is very different to other weightloss programs . Gerard addresses 3 areas .. food /exercise and of course the mind ! Fix the head and the ass will follow 😍
Gerard supports you through the 10 weeks on a daily basis . The mental side of this program is huge . Bodyslims is a process which brings each person on a journey . To understand bodyslims you need to do it .. probably more than once ❤
If you would like any other questions answered please email us at info@bodyslims.com as we are always happy to help
Best wishes
Happy new year
Sharon 😊
Why has this been making more sense than anything else I have listened to or tried.
I've signed up for the worldwide BodySlims program without coaching (the one with coaching sadly was already sold out) and am hoping it will be the start of something more positive. Have been thinking about this for a year now, this is not an impulse decision 🙂
Don't worry re not getting the couching one, the only difference is you get feedback on your food diary. I did the sept without coaching & it was amazing. Can't wait for Jan one to start.
Thanks Gerard for BodySlims and Carla for being my inspiration to try BodySlims. I’m on the 3rd round so far and down 4 st in total so far.
💜 love this insightful chat between the two of you. Can we have more plse? So motivating.
A very powerful discussion. Thank you. ❤
Best decision I made wad signing up! Only regret is not doing it earlier! Ready for my 2nd round starting 18th January! 💜💜
Lovely to see Gerard, love how down-to-earth and honest he is. You are both amazing and very inspirational!
💜💜💜 Thank you both! I'm beginning week 5. Never thought I would start to believe I could do it, but that is the most amazing thing about this. It's becoming harder and harder to argue with my own success. It turns out I can do this! I especially love that Gerard is so good at knowing what my excuses are that it makes me laugh on a daily basis. Whenever I think I need to take it easy the next day Gerard announces it needs to be a hot day. What again? Yes! Lol. The man is hilarious.
Wow! Will definitely be tuning in Carla. I was just researching BodySlims and considering signing up because of you. This must be my sign!!! Happy New Year to you both!
Yay!! My two favorite people together ❤️ 💓 💗 lookin good both of you xxox
💜thank you so much. I had so many of these questions that I wanted answers to. My start date is September 20,2023 and I didn’t want to lose my momentum and my confidence. I feel like I will finally be able to see this through.Thanks.
💜 thank you Carla for having Gerard on. I love you guys. Can't wait to start on Jan 18 for my first round. I ABSOLUTELY love hearing Gerard speak. Thank you for this Carla.
❤can’t find the purple heart 🎉
OMG! I can't believe it! I just signed up for the September 2024 Body Slims! So excited! I wonder if there is a way to connect now with others beginning Body Slims in September...
I signed up as well!! Can’t wait!
Same, see you there!
About to start my 2nd round, and my friend will be joining for her first! Can't wait! 💜
How much weight did u lose during the first round?
I had been on the fence about signing up (been thinking about it for a year). As soon as this last one opened up I decided to sign up! I’m so excited :)
Me too!
Starting my second round in 2 weeks, already down 10 kg. So glad I found your channel! Forever grateful
Even just watching these videos helps to reignite my personal power switch.
💜 Thank you both!
Absolutely easier to do it 100%. BodySlims is brilliant and SO much more than just weight loss! As soon as I can save up, I will definitely be back for my 2nd round. (Shooting for April.🤞)
💜(for Carla)💜(for Gerard) - I am equally thankful to each of you for your incredible inspiration!
BodySlims really works! My starting weight in September ‘22 was 22.5 stone. ‘If Carla can do it, maybe I can, too” was my hope as I began. In 10 weeks I dropped 3.5 stones. Maintenance over the holidays had it’s slippery spots, but water weight from enjoying a few white carbs came off today and I’m celebrating my 4th stone gone!!! I’m motivated to continue the BodySlims lifestyle and so excited for the January session to start!
Excellent interview - both of you! People of excellence! Thank you Carla! Thank you Gerard!
💜 I'll be starting in April and watching this Q&A has really helped. Thanks! I'm looking forward to April
Signed up on Monday! ❤️ Really looking forward to the mental aspect (which has always been my difficulty).
💜 💜💜 I needed my Gerard fix as I wait for September 2023, thank you Carla and Gerard! Laura xx
💜 Words of wisdom from the dynamic duo! Thank you, Carla, for being such a relatable, down -to-earth inspiration. Looking forward to my second Body Slims experience!!💜
So wonderful! Ger is in my head when i screw up which is daily. Carla is the evidence of what is possible. Everyday is a new day.
💜. Great stuff. Thanks Carla and Ger. Looking forward to my second programme starting in a couple of weeks.
Hello Carla and Gerrard
Greta video and BodySlims is a programme like no any other, life changing and works n then mind and body and your inner self.
💜Thank you so much! This video gave me the motivation to go for my walk today! My weight loss has stalled, but I still feel better everyday.
💜thanks for this, all helpful, quite apprehensive about my ability to do this and stick to it but you’re a great role model!
I really enjoyed this interview. Both of you really made me think about my health journey in a new way. Thank you for sharing
Thank you Carla and Gerard for your kindness and insight! 💜
💜 Thanks for a wonderful Q&A this is my first time on BS and I'm loving it. Carla you're so inspiring 💗 and I love listening to Ger.
💜💜💜great questions re excess skin, limiting beliefs & clear scientific answers re why do just walking for best fat burning.
My only other question is can I do intermittent fasting while doing this program? I am doing 16/8 and 18/6 with great results.
💜💜💜 So great watching this, it got me excited to start my second round! Huge fan of BodySlims and what it has done for my life!!!
Great video. I've never heard of this plan.
💜 Thank you Carla & Ger. Great context to refresh ahead of my 4th (!) programme. Carla, you’ve been a fantastic addition to
the programme. Totally inspired by your honesty and your weekly messages really resonated w me.
I’m signed up for my first one on the 18th following the instructions on the emails now for the last few weeks I am getting revved up and ready to go !
Well done. You’ll love it.
💜 love this, and so glad there’s an online version! Might just have to join the next round!
💜 Always a pleasure...looking forward to my second round of Body Slims. Such a great way for self care in the new year. xo
💜 thank you 🙏 I’ve been watching a lot of your videos these past few weeks
Love this video! 💜 Thank you for the great content and the best weight loss program. So excited for January 18th. It really works! First holiday season that I haven't gained weight and felt brilliant! Can't thank you both enough. 💜 If you're on the fence about signing up for Body Slims just do it. It will be the greatest gift you give to yourself.
💜💜💜 Really great video with such important questions addressed. I am excited to be starting my third round of BS next week. Thank you for this wonderful program. You are making a difference to many people! 😊
💜 Loved hearing and learning more about the program!! Thank you Carla and Gerard, I will definitely look into the September 2023 program for both myself and my husband! Would totally enjoy another Q&A with the two of you 💜
Thanks so much Tif, please let me know if you have any specific questions cx
@@HalfofCarla I find your videos very inspiring and educational. Thank you for all the wonderful content! I have been walking since December 2022 and to find YOU has been a gift from God (like Gerard said "When the student is ready, the teacher appears" Love that! Thank you Carla. I am going to have my husband watch this video this weekend, he has already told me he is on board to do the September BodySlims ❤
💜Amazing content, as always. I feel like a sponge soaking it all in!! Thank you so much Carla and Ger. I'm looking forward to starting my second round in a few weeks💜xoxo
💜💜 looking forward to starting my first BodySlims program next week!!
❤❤💜💜 i will do this program one day carla. I hv spent thousands on pt and have lost some weight and body fat and gained muscle. I went on this journey to lose visceral fat and overall body fat and i cannot undo years of muscle building by stopping weight training for 10 weeks! But i lovethe concept and think if i rly cant see anymore progress i may try it out. Im 58yo this year and tired ofbeing overweight. Its mainly for my healththat im doing this. Thanks carla for being such an inspiration...❤❤
You are unlikely to lose the muscle you've built in just 10 weeks.
🌞You are so brave!! Thank you for sharing your heart!!
Thank you for sharing this fantastic interview Carla, you are both brilliant and down to earth people and doing so much to help others xxxx
Thank u Carla U have come so far as u said u have a beautiful boy..U have a good mindset. Happy New Year 💜
💜💜💜💜💜 Carla and Gerard you are both such a huge inspiration for me and now my friends and family. This was such a great video to watch and I will be recommending it to everyone!! Even though I’ve already done 2 cycles of bodyslims I have learned so much from watching this. Well done and can’t wait to see you both on the 18th of January for my “good to great” cycle!! 🎉
💜 Great Q & A with you two. Wonderful insights and information. Thank you so much!!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜. Awwww it was amazing to see Gerard, I miss him! It was around this time last year that you turned me onto BS but I was too late for Jan but I signed up there and then for April and haven’t looked back! I did 2 programs and lost 35 pounds, I want to lose 10 more but if I don’t do it on my own I will be back to BS in Apr and if I do I will be back anyway just for the mental benefits. We have just come through the holidays and man I never got tired of hearing I looked great. Also really happy to report I maintained my weight and no Xmas gain. Thanks to both of you! To anyone sitting on the fence……Go now, right now and sign up! I promise you, you won’t loom back! Sharon Prophet xo
Amazing Sharon xx
Starting the programme this day week - really looking forward to getting started :)
Just watched your you tube video with Ger, back for my 4th round can't wait for new program to start..Thank you so much Carla for your advice 💜
Great video Carla and Gerard 💕 i don't know why i didn't get notifications on this video 🤔
I’m excited to get started Jan 18th!
💜 - Thank you for doing this!
Great video, can't wait for Jan cycle to begin! What a great pair you are x 💜
This channel is incredible. Thank you both for hope and being there for us.
💜 so excited about starting 20th Sept!
I love this but I wish things like PCOS and insulin resistance were discussed because for a huge portion of us it's not as simple as a calorie deficit and an hour walk. I look at food and pick up weight, and exercise loads :( my body cannot use what it needs properly. I wouldn't be able to do body slims by the sounds of it, but it seems to work great for so many and I'm happy it helps!
Just signed up to do BodySlims starting the 18th of January 🤓😃
Just signed up for September 23 Cant wait 😊❤
💜💜 I definitely want to get on board!
💜 Thanks Carla and Jared!

💜Thank you so much for your videos!
I'm 5 ft 7 and 190 lbs😓 was binge eating and carb and sugar cravings but will try to do more walking and see what these body slims are. I feel so ugly it's the first ti.e at 49 years old I've been fat😔
💜💜💜 Brilliant, thank you.
💜💜 Really enjoyed this video, thank you Carla xx
💜💜💜 just brilliant , thank you x
Its a time bound strategic intervenion.......thats how its different and thats why i want to give it a go!😊
“Stick to the formula”…
So do you think that alternating between 10 weeks of weight loss through walking and 10 weeks of muscle building through weight training is an ideal pattern?
He said no
💜 Joined the Jan 18th start
Thanks both 😊
💜 phenomenonal people 💕
💜💜 So informative!
Thank you! 💜
