The 21-Day Weight Loss Kickstart Diet (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
I just finished a 21 day Daniel Fast and I was looking for more vegan recipes which this book offers. Major difference with this book is that the Daniel Fast requires only water to drink, no yeast or sugar on the vegan diet and the spiritual connection one has during the process which is amazing. I have to say that the Daniel Fast wasn't hard. I didn't feel hungry but I like veggies, fruit, beans and whole grains. Ripe fruit replaced my sugar cravings. I feel more clear headed, energetic, no longer have pain in my joints/ back and I now wear clothes that are 2 sizes smaller! This is the book that brought me back to vegetarianism. I found out at the beginning of June that my cholesterol was 234 and I knew that changing the way I eat would lower that level. I am a big believer in the connection between the foods we eat and our health and I just needed a "kickstart" to return me to healthier habits.The day I learned about my high cholesterol, I purchased the Nook book edition and started reading. The fact that Dr. Barnard guides you through the program day by day is extremely helpful and is like having a friend support you. Two weeks into the plan, my cholesterol dropped to 205 and after completing the full 21 days, I lost 4.5 pounds!I highly recommend this book to anyone trying to improve their health and is willing to learn about how a vegan lifestyle can be healing.
