Joyous and Energetic

This is from a reader on antidepressants who learned about the Serotonin Power Diet on iVillage.

I cannot get over how energetic and high spirited I feel, I know I am eating fewer calories, but I am very satisfied and have not had any cravings, which is remarkable for me since I usually have PMS cravings and binges this week, and my six-year-old came home with so much Valentine's candy it seemed liked Halloween, I haven't wanted or thought about it.I will keep you posted on my progress, thanks much for your interest.Janet (Atlanta, GA) 2/26/07 Nina, I lost 5 lbs the first week of the program, this is the first time I have ever lost while on medication! What a relief, it is possible and I feel great, not hungry, not missing anything. I felt a little out of sorts Friday and Sat, but much better today. Happy on Serotonin, Janet 3/12/07

Hello Nina, just an update, today I started week 4 and have a total loss of 8 lbs, this is awesome for me.The chapter in the book on intensifying your workout was a big stimulus for me this past week, and I have cranked up my strength training too.My clothes are looser and my arms look much leaner and fit.This plan is a wonder for me, thanks much.Janet
