Latoya: Love this book and principles in it. Good way to reconnect or connect with God with daily readings. The stories help as well because the author makes you feel like she is right there with you in the journey.

Jesus loves You & Me: Amazing book. I can see the difference in my attitude when I had so much sugar vs my attitude after I stopped poisoning my self with it and filling my body with Jesus. Strongly recommend this book!

Doesn’t smell good at all. Cream is abit sticky due to it being basically petroleum jelly.: Changed my life! First few days was meh but I really felt so blessed during this fast and was so proud I’ve never been off sugar so long, decided to give up a few other stuff as the Holy Spirit lead me

Brenda R.: This book is an excellent resource to guide us to identify and turn from those weaknesses in our life and to feast on the Lord in his Word! It’s not just our fight against sugar but anything in your life. It’s a fantastic book that I have read multiple times with different stumbling blocks as my focus.

Jerrell Family: Instead of doing 40 days, I chose to do three days, then another time five days, and then 10 days. I did experience some "sugar flu" feelings. But it was fine going for a walk. It was minimized my biggest take away from this is being prepared and Wendy has really absolutely laid out a great foundation to follow to do it. I'm not quite ready to do the 40 days, but I have lessened my sugar to local honey, what I used to bake with my fresh milled flour for breads & homemade pasta. Essentially I gave up processed sugar. My body feels better. My gut health is better. I don't have the cravings. I don't have to have coffee every day or any processed products. I just overall feel healthier and closer relationship spiritually.

Cliente Kindle: A Wendy é maravilhosa. Esse livro é surreal. Sou suspeita pq eu faço esse jejum todo ano e amo a forma que esse livro te conduz não a uma dieta mas a um propósito espiritual mesmo. Apenas LEIAM e vocês não irão se arrepender.

Joyce E. RempelJoyce E. Rempel: This was my second annual 40 day sugar fast - where physical detox meets spiritual transformation. This book deserves my highest recommendation. Wendy is gentle yet pointed. She pulls no punches but binds up my wounds as she invites us continuously to return to the Lord for satisfaction instead of candy binges, online gaming, compulsive spending or whatever else we use to fill the void and distract ourselves. I’m grateful for these daily devotional chapters by Wendy, the succinct quotes, the encouragement and the absence of judgment. We’re reminded of God‘s grace and his open invitation to every prodigal, “Come to me all you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. My yoke is easy and my burden is light.”

In practical ways, I feel more normal than any normal I’ve ever known. Brain fog is gone, inflammation and joint pain almost nil, and have an elevated mood. I always knew refined sugar affected my mood, but this book helped me learn true, lasting satisfaction comes only from the One who made me. God truly fulfils my soul cravings I’ve been trying to fill with sugar.

I have had been lifted out of depression by this fast, the devotionals,...

AE: This is a truly amazing, inspiring thoughtful resource to help in the journey of the 40 day sugar fast. Each daily devotional is Holy Spirit-inspired. There is a devotional to get the reader thinking of what is really happening to them along the way. It is encouraging and thought provoking. There is a daily Scripture to ponder on, and a heart-felt prayer to pray along with. It really got me thinking of more than just giving up sugar. It has been a life changing experience and I found strength that the Lord has given me that I didn't know I could have. This book is suitable for believers and non believers alike. And it's not just sugar that we can abstain from. There is help and encouragement to help get rid of any addiction or stronghold that we may have. Many thanks to Wendy and the admin team for the opportunity to take part alongside thousands of sisters and brothers. Thank You Heavenly Father for guiding me in this direction , and for setting me free from this poison. God bless everyone who takes up the challenge.xx

fellow writerfellow writer: I have a long-standing love affair with sugar. I inherited a wicked sweet tooth from my dad and an affection for all things chocolate from my mom. There is just one very big problem. As much as I love sugar, it does not love me back. In fact, it is rather cruel, unkind, and frighteningly damaging to my physical body!

Especially after an indulgent holiday season, the battle begins again in my head. How can I make better choices? What is the best way to care for my 50-something body responsibly? I know sugar is my fiercest enemy, but do I really need to give it up completely? Can I find a happy medium, an “everything in moderation” place to land?

I never know the right answer. Ever. I swing from one extreme tactic to another or give up entirely and binge on all the wrong things. The vicious cycle leaves me feeling defeated, helpless, confused – and quite honestly, shockingly alarmed by how much this dialogue raging in my head consumes me!

I gulp back the realization. It scares me to see the breadth and depth of this life-long wrestle. Fear grips me as I wonder if the enemy of my soul has been using this battleground to keep me chasing my own tail for far...
