Sweet Freedom Study Guide: Losing Weight and Keeping It Off With God's Help (The Sweet Series)

Old memories, feelings would poke and prod me during the night. I would feel condemnation, toss and turn, pray about whatever was on my mind, but still be unable to sleep. Since I have started spending time asking God these questions that Teresa presents, the sting of these old memories and thoughts are gone. I haven't been bothered by them again, no devastating feelings.I know I had God's word for encouragement before, but the heart knowledge I needed came through using this study guide along with its companion book Sweet Freedom: Losing Weight & Keeping It Off With God's Help. It was not settled in my spirit and soul before. Now I have experience, not just comprehension. I believe this is an anointed teaching and I encourage you to read Sweet Freedom and do the steps in this study guide.

I enjoyed reading the book and learning how the author overcame her struggles. The only thing that I didn’t enjoy was that she mentioned a popular Word of Faith speaker, who is a false teacher. One must know who they’re listening to and avoid false preachers.

Book is life changing in itself! The study guide is a wonderfulAccessory. Reading it, it could almost stand on its own. Very helpfulFor group leading.

This book changed my actions and mindset.

This is a fantastic study guide to do individually and with a small group.

After years, almost a lifetime in fact, of dieting, losing and gaining more weight back, I found solutions of a lasting nature through this study guide and the book Sweet Freedom! Like weeds in the garden, if chopped off at the top they soon grow back. That is exactly what I was doing with yo-yo dieting. As with gardening, there is a root to every weed, which has to be extracted for a permanent solution. Food was my first addiction and had become my faithful friend that I thought I controlled. It was less daunting than relationships with people and even God, especially sweet treats! After confronting the reality of being a sugar addict just as I was an alcoholic, I sought a lasting and rewarding answer to the dilemma. In Sweet Freedom and Sweet Freedom Study Guide, Teresa Shields Parker offers real tools to dig up those body, soul and spirit weeds that have led to barriers to not only lasting weight loss, but also to an intimate walk with God and others. I highly recommend this ground breaking work that will see many finally set free from the bondage of addictions!
