Beyond Sugar Shock Book Review and Giveaway

Sugar - lately this has been the bane of my existence...really.  With everything going on in my world, and the world around me, I seem to think of sugar at least 50 times a day.  I'm sure many of you go through something similar.   Maybe you have a lifetime of battles with sugar, or maybe you just now have realized that this 16 calorie per teaspoon, nonfat substance is just plain bad for you.  If you feel rather stupid (like I do) that this food substance has taken over part of your mind, then I may have just found some help for you. 

Beyond Sugar Shock by Connie Bennett is a follow up book to the best seller Sugar Shock.  In this book, she explains what sugar is, how it harms you, and why it is just so addictive.  I kind of knew all of the health claims and risks already.  But, if you are like me, then you need to know how to get rid of that addiction once and for all. This is where this book succeeds. The book is really informative, but also is a fun workbook that takes you step by step through six weeks that won't be torture.

The first thing you need to do is have a plan.  The first 3 weeks is building a foundation.   The book guides you right along on planning for exercise, making goals, creating a positive mind-set, and seeking out support.  The second 3 weeks are about keeping your work so far in action.  Keep affirming that you can do it, accept your charge over your health.  In other words, the book does a great (and possibly life saving) job of getting you on, and keeping you on, track.  

Filled with inspiring stories, practical solutions, and plenty of reminders on how and why to work through sugar addiction, I found the book really easy to read, and even easier to use.  It's been about 5 days since I picked up this book, and I have to say, it is working.  I keep going back to making a plan, and then working that plan.

Slimmer, Sexier, Sweeter.....I'm ready?  Are you?  You can pick up Beyond Sugar Shock at many retailers, or online.
