Welcome. Come on in. Get some help. Chat with us. Watch videos. Get fre*e gifts. We're here to serve you in this supportive Stop SUGAR SHOCK! social network. This group is for anyone, but it's ideal if you'd like to shed pounds, break free of your sugar addiction, manage your diabetes or resolve your hypoglycemia symptoms. This forum dates to Nov. 2002, when ex-sugar addict and Sugar Shrew No More! Connie Bennett founded KickSugar (on Yahoo) to inspire, educate and encourage sugar sufferers. Now, your Stop SUGAR SHOCK! social network, moved to Ning, is co-founded by Connie Bennett and James Hahn II.

Connie is a warm, sensitive life coach, health counselor, radio host (Gab With the Gurus), blogger (on the Sugar Shock Blog, Huffington Post and Psychology Today), speaker, journalist and author of SUGAR SHOCK! (Penguin Group). She kicked sugar in 1998 on doctor's orders, and ALL 44 of her ailments vanished, including her ferocious headaches, crippling fatigue and brain fog! Read her story here and get lots of FRE*E STUFF here, including a Healthy Shopping List, the Sugar Shock Quiz, ways to Say No With Sass!, Help to Find a Doctor and Chuckle at Cartoons.

James is also a former sugar slave, who once weighed 273 pounds. He shed 87 pounds by kicking sugar and refined carbs. Now, he helps others, and he is a dynamic, compassionate life coach, speaker and blogger at Slave2Freedom. Read his remarkable Journey to Freedom here.
