Easily Digest
This book is great to get your principals straight. It empowers the reader with practical and scriptural context to motivate change. It took me longer than 21 days because I needed time to fully digest each concept. I didn't want to be on promos time (clock ⏰) to finish tho say I've read it. I chose kiaros (God's timing), so I could search myself for my truth. I highly recommend this book. It helps more than eating habits! Great 🔧 tool I intend to use again!

Weight Loss God’s Way is the best way and Cathy Morenzie enlightens dieters and readers on how to accomplish this goal. Healthy by Design is a simple 21-day plan for permanent weight loss and stronger faith. Cathy Morenzie prepares readers with the tools needed to help with weight loss through discipline and scriptures.
For the next 21 days readers will learn to submit to God, set goals, pray, avoid procrastinating; overcome the reasons for their eating habits and a lot more. This is an educational guide to become a better person. The author includes reflections, confessions readers can participate in, as well as challenges to keep readers on track. This book also provides scriptures that readers can study to help them on their dieting journey. This positive affirmation will help many if applied and followed. I recommend Healthy by Design to those serious about weight loss and strengthen their faith.

Very short, and though has some good stuff, there are others that are better in this category. Glad I only paid 99 cents for it.
