The Daniel Plan: 40 Days to a Healthier Life

Amazon Snippet

Revolutionize Your Health ... Once and for All During an afternoon of baptizing over 800 people, Pastor Rick Warren realized it was time for change. He told his congregation he needed to lose weight and asked if anyone wanted to join him. He thought maybe 200 people would sign up, instead he witnessed a movement unfold as 15,000 people lost over 260,000 pounds in the first year. With assistance from medical and fitness experts, Pastor Rick and thousands of people began a journey to transform their lives. Welcome to The Daniel Plan. Here's the secret sauce: The Daniel Plan is designed to be done in a supportive community relying on God's instruction for living. When it comes to getting healthy, two are always better than one. Our research has revealed that people getting healthy together lose twice as much weight as those who do it alone. God never meant for you to go through life alone and that includes the journey to health. Unlike the thousands of other books on the market, this book is not about a new diet, guilt-driven gym sessions, or shame-driven fasts. The Daniel Plan shows you how the powerful combination of faith, fitness, food, focus, and friends will change your health forever, transforming you in the most head-turning way imaginably---from the inside out.

My Thoughts

I'm really enjoying the book so far. I needed a reference for foods to avoid that might possibly be the trigger to migraine headaches. I love plant-based recipes and this seems to be a complete list of great nutritional tips. The top five ingredients to this successful plan are:

Faith
Food
Fitness
Focus
Friends

This is a book meme where I enjoy sharing with my readers what it is I'm reading during the week. Then I quote a sentence or two from the 56th page and share it with everyone at fredasvoice.blogspot.com

"God's love is long enough to last forever."
-- Rick Warren

Hope you'll join in!
