Reshaping it ALL.. and a giveaway or two


As I recently mentioned, I have been reading Reshaping it ALL by Candace Cameron Bure and Darlene Schacht. I finally finished the book. I love to read and normally don't re-read a lot of books. However, I know for a fact that I will be coming back to this book many times. I even bought it on my new Nook so that I can have access to it more. Candace and Darlene (I feel as though they are old friends) do any incredible job of combing motivation that helps you physically as well as spiritually. Scripture is woven through out the entire book. As well as personal stories of triumph over weight. Losing weight has always been an issue of mine. I have tried the diets. Tried the pills. Tried sweating it out at the gym. But I have never been consistent with anything. Candace helped bring to light how important our mind set and our spiritual life have to do with our bodies. At the end of every chapter, Candace includes The Pantry Dish in which she shares The Main Ingredient, A Slice of Advice, A Pinch of Practicality, Food for Thought, The Candy Dish, and From My Stove to Yours. I love that Candace always points you back to the Word of God. On a website (I forgot which one) during a video interview about the book, Candace described that book as a spiritual makeover. I must agree totally. I thoroughly have enjoyed reading this book. So much so, that on my birthday- January 28th, I will be giving away two (2) copies of Reshaping it ALL. So leave a comment on this post and you will be entered to win. Also for an extra entry, you can follow me on Twitter and mention the giveaway. Happy reading!

  15. I would love to win Reshaping it All, Ive been wanting to read it since it came out. Mainly for the spiritual and food portions. Unforthunately i dont have a job right now, so i cant buy it at this time. But i am just dying to read it also because im a huge fan of Candace Bure.

  17. Your review makes me even more excited to read the book than I was before. I've been interested in reading it since Candace began teething about it. As a girl who has "won some" and "lost some" in the battle with weight (and all that goes with it) since I was in middle school, would love a new, spirit-filled perspective. And as a new youth minister, I would love to be able to share the extra wisdom and spiritual health with my teen girls. Thanks so much for an opportunity to win a free copy!!

  20. Hello, I would love to enter this contest. My daughter recently got married & has been having a rough time
    (Money seems to be a very big problem) I was trying to find a way to buy this book for chritsmas for her
    & I ended up having all of my saved money stolen by a stranger. My daughter has been going through many conflicts
    & has been trying to lose weight, but has had no motivation. She adores candace more than anyone. She's looked up to her
    Since she was only 8 when she was on full house. When she found out on about her new book, she tried to find a job, but so far no luck.
    My daughter deserves this motivational book more than anyone. I know for a fact that you'd not only make me happy, but my daughter.
    I will do anything, anything to win a copy. My daughter's email is mrandmrsvmluna2k10@hotmail.com . Her twitter username is SugarMau5
    If you could please let me know what I can do to win a copy, please, let me know.
