"Connie, I could not have kicked sugar without you."
"Dear Connie, I can't thank you enough! I've struggled with a sugar addiction for as long as I can remember, and during the past 10 years, my addiction has become so much worse as the stress in my life increased with career and children. Being a chiropractor and fitness freak, I switched to `healthy' sugar -- as if such a thing exists! Sugar addiction has caused me so much sadness, time, money and energy, and I've spent a lot of time looking for a solution. While it hasn't always been easy for me, I couldn't have kicked sugar without your intense coaching. You brought me through the tough times, and now I feel better now than I have in years! I don't feel as though I am going to jump out of my skin every month when it's that time of the month. (I used to have terrible PMS.) I just didn't know what it was like to feel good on a regular basis. Thank you so much!!!! I could not have done this without you."
Dawn in Mass. (Gave up sugar Feb. 5, 2009)
Thank you for being a wonderful teacher full of compassion and knowledge.
"I've now gone nearly one year LIVING free of sugar and simple carbs after taking your Sugar Freedom Now Course. I have never felt better! I'm more relaxed, and I don't crave sugar anymore! I am enjoying the natural sweet taste of healthy foods and I have already slowly brought my children along for the ride. I weighed 143 when I started, and I quickly went down to 123 pounds. I look and feel so good! Plus, my blood pressure has gone down so it's now at a normal range. And I don't have any more heart palpitations.
"The reason I'm successful this time (as compared to other times I've tried to kick sugar) is your wonderful lead with the weekly programs and daily connections, but also that I WAS READY to change my life. Thank you for being a wonderful teacher full of compassion and knowledge. My favorite day of the week now was Tuesdays at 5 pm. [Pacific time], when your calls take place. My bloated look is also gone. I'm happy, full of energy and fun to be around and that I laugh again. All those qualities blocked by sugar are back. Sugar will no longer take hold of my life. That was then...this is now! Thank you for the wonderful opportunity, encouragement, and techniques you shared in this program. This is the first time I can can remember feeling so FREE and PEACEFUL [despite a variety of stressful situations]. Sugar no longer has a "hold" on me. =) I have been able to healthfully deal with everything that has come my way with positive, clear thoughts and actions. I am forever grateful to you. By the way, one of the most exciting things that has happened since I got off sugar is that my desire for intimacy and love in my marriage is alive and kicking. Unbelievable how sugar sabotaged that!
Another two neat things that have come out of living sugar-free are that I have incredible energy. And I'm happily cooking for my family for the first time. My mom said to me, "If I didn't know better, I'd think you were on drugs." My reply: "Nope. I'm off them!" : ) - Sugarfree and Happy,"
Michele M. (Released sugar April 10, 2010.)
"Your Kick-Sugar Program sounded too good to be true!
"Connie, when I signed up for your Kick-Sugar Program, little did I know that it would change my life. I consider myself very savvy about nutrition and exercise. But at 55, I had always been a total sugar addict so all that knowledge and info went out the window when offered sugar. But your program -- which sounded too good to be true -- was not only effective, but it showed me that I was not alone and that there was a way out. At the end of your 10-week Fast-Track, Kick-Sugar program, I was 15 pounds lighter (I only needed to lose 20) and a whole lot happier and more energetic. ... I should also mention that I own 3 copies of your book, Sugar Shock! which I use for reference and lend to clients and friends (and I, of course, encourage them to buy their own). Now, five years later, I'm happy to be 80% sugar-free. I'm so glad I found you, your book Sugar Shock! and your program. Connie, I hope that you realize that all your hard work has made a tremendous impact on the lives of many people."
June Kamerling, Richmond, California
Who am I and Why Should You Listen to Me?
Now, let me tell you why I'm ideal to help you break free when you’ve always failed before.
I'm Connie Bennett, and on April 15, 1998, I very reluctantly kicked sugar and refined carbs on doctor's orders.
Initially, I did NOT want to give up my beloved candies, red licorice and chocolate chips.What's more, I did NOT even know if I could quit my cherished sweets! (Sound familiar?)
Back in 1998, I was very much like you, as my coaching clients often reveal to me. Like you, I was caught up in sugar desperation, frustration and aggravation. Even though it's more than 13 years ago, I can still feel the unbearable pain, the overpowering self-loathing and the utter hopelessness of being an agonized, frustrated, struggling sugar addict.
Let me paint a portrait of my plight when I was at the height of my sugar obsession and addiction.
In all, I suffered from a whopping 44 confusing ailments, from mood swings to severe PMS to heart palpitations.
Worse still, my boyfriend at the time dumped me because he'd had enough of my irrational, erratic, moody, crybaby, unfocused, seemingly unbalanced, "Sugar Shrew" behavior. (See how I suffered for you! LOL!)
As coaching clients often share with me, much of this will ring true with you, too.
Even more embarrassing, I'd do strange things to get my sugar "fix." For instance, on a typical day, I’d:
- Drive across town to buy my favorite, low-calorie hard candies. (Who was I fooling? They were loaded with sugar and/or high fructose corn syrup.)
- Sit in a supermarket parking lot and wolf down half a dozen or a dozen sticks of red licorice before seeing my boyfriend Mark for the evening. (At the time, I didn't realize that's why we argued afterward. Sound familiar?)
- Travel to a special, gourmet shop known for chocolate to buy these candies to get “energy,” “soothe” my stress,” or “lift” my spirits. (Do you do that, too?)
Looking At Me, You Wouldn't Have Known That I Was Hooked on Sugar.
That's because my weight was normal (other than 5 to 7 pounds I wanted to lose), but I was trapped in a vicious cycle of sugar highs and lows. What’s more, while watching my calorie intake, I neglected to get ample quality, nutritious fare. Junk food ruled me! (I'm sure I ate much as you now are, as people like you have told me.)
At my lowest point, a friend urged me to get help. So I wearily dragged my baffled, befuddled self to yet another physician, one of many I'd seen over the years.
My new M.D. quickly discovered my sugar addiction and hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). Next, he prescribed “the impossible"!
"Connie, kick sugar and refined carbs," my doctor ordered me. "If you do, I predict that your life will change dramatically."
Frankly, I didn't want to listen, but I really had no choice. I’d already hit rock bottom, and I had nothing to lose (other than feeling life a lifeless, energy-sapped slug). So I decided to follow my M.D.'s advice.
What came next was one of the most lonely, frustrating, but ultimately exhilarating periods of my life! Have you tried to kick sugar and refined carbs all by yourself? I imagine you have and that's why you're here.
Frankly, I was stumped. How was I going to quit the sweet substance? After all, I’d been hooked on and off for most of my life. Meanwhile, my friends, family members and then-ex-boyfriend didn't believe I could do it. But their disbelief just fueled my desire to succeed.
So I decided that I could and would beat the odds because I had some special skills — a natural curiosity; a determination to succeed to "show" others; special training as a reporter (I have a master's in journalism); a need to not suffer any more; and a deep desire to feel better and have a great life.
So I mapped out my own kick-sugar course and made it my mission to excel at kicking sugar — even if everyone around me thought I was kooky.
Soon, I became excited, motivated and sustained by the promise of a happier, healthier life.
Kicking sugar became my prime focus.
To make the long story short, with my new skills and strategies, I finally succeeded!
I kicked sugars and refined carbs all by myself!
And guess what? My doctor's predictions came true! Amazingly, within weeks of kicking my favorite sweets and quickie carbs, all 44 of my strange maladies disappeared!
That's not all.
Just the simple act of stopping the sugar and simple carbs was the most remarkable, empowering, life-changing action that I've ever taken!
Soon after kicking sugar and refined carbs, I regained my energy, enthusiasm and elation. Not to sound trite, but I felt REBORN just by removing sugar and fast-acting carbs from my diet!
Now, 13-plus years after kicking my sugar habit, I'm on a mission to help you. I’m driven to educate and empower sugar addicts worldwide to successfully overcome a horrible habit and begin a new life as I once did.
In short, I'm committed to serving you.
My intention now is to motivate, inspire and educate you. I want you, too, to feel excited, empowered and energized just from taking control over your sugar habit. I want to help you feel the joy, pride and self confidence that comes from breaking free of your unhealthy habit.
Because I want to help you as much as I can, I:
- Researched and wrote my book SUGAR SHOCK! (for Berkley Books) and my upcoming book, The Beyond Sugar Shock Diet (which will be published in 2012 by Hay House).
- Often give talks at health conferences, community centers and corporations.
- Regularly give radio, TV and teleseminar interviews and why I write articles about the joy of living sugar-free (or close to it.)
- Received additional training to become a certified health coach from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and a certified life coach with the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC) and the International Coach Federation (ICF). (Soon, I'll be going through intensive hypnotherapy training, too.)
If I can kick sugar, you, too, can easily dispose and discard your sugar addiction or obsession) as you would rotten, disgusting food!
A wondrous future lies ahead of you, and I'd be honored if you'd let me help you make it a reality.

“Connie, You Are My Inspiration and Savior”
"Since I became a member of your Kick-Sugar group, I’ve lost 50 pounds, and I feel so much better. I learned that eating a lot of sugary foods made me upset, cranky, overweight, neurotic, sick, unfocused and depressed. When I gave up sugar, I became energetic, aware, happy, focused, much healthier, and much, much more. Then, I had the greatest pleasure and honor to meet you, my favorite American Idol—Sugar-Free Idol, that is, at a health conference. You are beautiful, happy, energetic, smart, educated and inspiring. Connie, you are my inspiration and my savior. I love you, Connie. And thank you very much for letting me be a part of your programs."
Alina Deren, Brooklyn, New York
"Your Kick-Sugar Group Saved Me Many Mornings From Feeling Totally Hopeless”
"Great KickSugar group. I've learned a lot about avoiding sugar and caffeine. After three months clean, I feel great. My moods are stable, my energy is great and my outlook is so much more positive. I'm feeling sensations of well being that I've not felt in a long time. Your group saved me many mornings from feeling totally hopeless... Connie, I'm very grateful for all that you do to help folks out with this crazy condition of sugar addiction and hypoglycemia—-please don't ever stop your great work."
Ron McMillan, Fairfax, VA
Don't think you can do what these Successful Sugar Kickers quoted have done?
You may believe that they have special personality traits that you don't possess.
So let's deal with your pressing objections right now. We'll examine your resistance so you don't self-sabotage yourself by not taking action now. Based upon my extensive research and what I've witnessed by personally interviewing, corresponding with and coaching sugar and carb addicts, these are the top 7 reasons you may not register for this 6-week Break Free of Your Sugar Addiction to Get a Breakthrough Program.
Your Top 7 Reasons Why You May be Hesitant to Sign Up for This Life-Changing Break Free of Your Sugar Addiction in 6 Weeks Program
Reason # 1: "I simply don't have the will power to kick sweets."
Hogwash. That isn't what kicking sugar is all about. You'll learn really easy tactics in this Break Free Program that won't require will power to keep you from eating sweets.
Reason # 2: "I just feel so darn deprived when I can't have sweets and my favorite carbs. So why even bother?"
No problem. We'll help you change your mindset so that deprivation is the last thing on your mind. Rather, you'll learn to focus on what you gain by kicking these low-quality carbs.
Reason # 3: "It's just not possible to give up sweets while living in any 'civilized,' industrialized city in America or abroad."
Trust me: You can give up sweets even if you're in the midst of the most trafficked, sugar-laden, fast-food-filled city in the world! You just need some special secrets and strategies to help you pull it off, and we'll give you some wonderful ones so you, too, can win!
Reason #4: "If I give up sweets, I won't be able to socialize with my friends and family anymore, because they're all eating that stuff."
It's understandable that you feel that way, but that's a faulty assumption. You’ll get tips on how to socialize without sweets and how to focus in on the people you're with rather than on the food that's served.
Reason # 5: "There's no way that I can deal with stress without my sugary 'fixes."
I hear that objection often from clients I coach. That’s why I'll give you foolproof, super-effective stress-breaking techniques. You’ll even get ideas in one hour with esteemed integrative physician and stress-reduction expert Jill R. Baron, M.D.
Reason # 6: "I need to take candy bar breaks just to get enough energy to get me through the day."
Actually, that's just not true! Sugar robs you of your energy and drains you of vitality. You’ll learn much better, more healthy ways to rev yourself up.
Reason # 7: "Every time I've tried to kick sugar in the past I've failed, so why should I even bother to try again?"
“I Can Hardly Believe [That I’m] This Stable, Friendly Person…”
"Sadly, there is very little understanding by the general public—or even among doctors—as to the havoc sugar addiction plays with one's emotions, relationships and health.
"Even now, after four years off sugar, I can hardly believe that I’m this stable, friendly person, who lay hidden for half a century under the crazy roller-coaster mood changes of my former sugar-controlled self.
"There is a great need for reliable sources of information regarding the dangers of sugar and refined carbohydrates and the chance to share solutions to the problems they cause."
Ruth M., Somerset, England
“Reduction in PMS Symptoms is a Nice `Side Effect’ of Kicking Sugar”
"Since joining your group 3 months ago, I significantly cut back on my sugar and simple-carb intake. Besides the immediate benefit of not feeling exhausted and irritable, I have noticed a longer term benefit — significantly reduced PMS. I have suffered from PMS - bloating, cravings, being overly emotional—since I was 13. I have tried all sorts of things from herbal to chemical to relieve me of my symptoms. Since I started severely restricting my sugar intake, I have noticed that I don't have most of my symptoms, and if I do, they're not as severe.
"I can't attribute my reduction in PMS symptoms this to anything else except cutting back significantly on sugar. It is the only thing that I have done that would make a difference. Reduction in PMS symptoms is a nice 'side effect' of kicking sugar!"
Anita Toth, Hamilton, Canada
"I Became a New Person."
"Over the course of a day, I'd swing from bad-tempered to lighthearted; from depressed to boisterous all for no apparent reason. All day I'd be ‘self-medicating' with a regular intake of sugar, in particular, chocolate. My favorite main courses were all sugar-laden ones such as sweet-and-sour pork and barbecued ribs.
"Once I stopped consuming sugar and other refined carbohydrates, my mood swings, weepiness, morning sensitivity, and lethargy ceased! The transformation was extraordinary; I became a new person and had to get to know myself all over again — a strange experience in one's 40s."
Maria (pseudonym), Sussex, Great Britain
"Sugar is Cheap, Socially Accepted and Tied to Love and Every American Holiday"
"I've had a sugar problem for 20 years. Eating sweets was very isolating. Physically and emotionally, I'm like two different people. On sugar, I didn't have energy, I didn't exercise, I didn't feel like eating vegetables or fruits, I withdrew from relationships, and my purposeful movement towards meaningful goals wasn't happening.
"When I ate a lot of sweets, I'd get moody, depressed, irritable, impatient, edgy, selfish, dishonest and I wasn't completely present. When you're not present, you can't be intimate with another person.
"It's like sugar would be my lover, not the woman in my life at the time. On some level, people might think that's absurd, but my body craved the sweet of sugar, and my heart wanted the food, not the woman. The sugar would take precedence over the person.
"I can so relate to a heroin addict or crackhead. At times I'm envious of drug addictions that are both illegal and socially disdained. Sugar is legal, cheap, socially accepted, readily available and tied to love and every American holiday.
"...I tried several different anti-depressants over the years. The only thing that worked for me is to not consume the depressants, which, to me, are sugars and refined grains.
(Quit sugar in January 2000)
Robert Foster, Longmont, Colorado
"Connie, You’re Giving Us a Lot of Useful Tools”
"Connie, you're giving us a lot of useful tools and emotional support. I haven't been able to get that feeling from other websites or books. I just wish people would take sugar addiction seriously. Too many people laugh it off, but they wouldn't laugh if you told them you were a drug addict or an alcoholic.”
Marie Towns, Calgary, Alberta, Canada
"People Are Now Going, `Wow, you look good, what are you doing?'"
"When I used to have sugar, I would feel a false, short-lived high. Then I'd crash soon after that initial delicious, tasty feeling. Then, not long after I had some sweets, I'd need more, and this ugly, little junkie-voice would urge me, 'Don't stop. Have another chocolate bar. Get another cookie.'"
"This nagging monkey would be on my back, and I'd often be at the precipice. If I gave into sweets, I'd be having them every day.
"Now that I've kicked sugar, I've become more sculpted and toned. For example, even though I weigh the same — my clothes fit more loosely. Also, as a massage therapist, I've noticed that when I work on people who don't eat sugar, there's a purity of muscle tone that you don't find in people who eat sugar. The skin of sugar free people is more soft and pliable and lacks adhesions, congestion or stagnant energy.
"That isn't the only benefit you can get from kicking sweets. For example, ever since I was 13, I've had acne, which went anywhere from moderate to intense. After six months off sugar, my skin started to become very radiant, supple and smooth. People are now going, 'Wow, you look really good, what are you doing?' For me, the key to having good skin is cutting out sugar."
Lisa Joy Harvey, New York (Quit sugar Sept. 2002.)
"Kicking Sweets Changed My Life!"
>"I've been hooked on sugar my entire life. I would stash rolls of sweet-and-sour candies in every coat pocket, in my purse, in my work bag, in my desk drawer, in my car, in my nightstand drawer, in the coffee table drawer. A 14-ounce glass of iced tea would require five to six sugars, too. Toast didn't get eaten unless it was soaked with butter and covered with brown sugar.
For 10 to 15 years, I suffered. I had no energy, and I was tired all the time. I would get the shakes and dizzy spells, I always had sugar cravings, and I would get moody, bitchy, demanding and irritable.
"Finally, on January 14, 2002, my doctor told me that I was hypoglycemic. She told me to cut out all sugar, eat a minimum of six small meals a day, and eat protein at every meal. She also told me to cut out simple carbs like white bread, rice and cereal and eat complex carbs like vegetables, fruits and whole grains.
"Kicking sweets changed my life! I feel sooo much better today than I did 4 years ago. Believe me, it is VERY worth it! I am more understanding and less demanding. I have more energy. My concentration has improved. I don't get ravenous hunger or dizzy spells anymore unless I go longer than three hours without eating. In general, I feel better overall. And, the best part is that I lost the 15 pounds that I had put on during the year prior to kicking sugar, and I have kept it off!!!"

Dear Sugar and Carb Addicts,
Let me close with a few final words. If you're anything like I was back in 1998, I imagine that you're reluctant to take such a huge step. You may be resisting taking action even as you're reading this. (You'll hear my wacko story about how, in 1998, while I was reading books about sugar's dangers I was still eating candies!)
I feel your pain and mixed feelings. So, I'm not even asking you to quit sweets right now. I'm just inviting you to consider learning more about it. For example, I encourage you to start reading my book SUGAR SHOCK! Then, even if you're hesitant, sign up to attend the Sugar Freedom in 6 Weeks Program. Do the activities and see what happens.
