My cravings are entirely gone!

Here's a story from a participant in one of my recent Serotonin Power Diet weight loss groups.

- Nina

In 3 weeks, I've lost 10 pounds and I feel more energetic than ever. I used to eat ice cream with walnuts, whipped cream and chocolate sauce every evening. I'd even get into the car to go to the store to get some ice cream if we were out. I haven't had any ice cream since starting The Serotonin Power Diet! My cravings for sweets have entirely disappeared which, if you knew me before, is completely different than how I used to be. Now boxes of girl scout cookies sit at home uneaten, and I pass up the cookies and cakes that are everywhere in my office. I don't even crave the butter I used to want to slather on my English muffins - now jam is all I need. I pack my pretzels and carry them with me, and I eat them before lunch and dinner - they really work to control my appetite. My co-workers notice that I'm more social than ever. It's true - this is the first diet I've been on that I haven't felt depressed.

I used to rely on sleeping pills to get maybe 5 hours of sleep but now I fall asleep 2 hours earlier than I used to, I sleep 7 and a half hours, and I don't take sleeping pills. I never tire of carbs and I can live on this diet - it's regular foods I can find anywhere. 6 of my co-workers bought the book to get started on the diet because they can't believe my success. I find the book so full of interesting information. My clothes are looser and I can't wait to buy new smaller clothes, something I love to do. I started The Serotonin Power Diet when I learned it is effective for people on antidepressants, and I've been on those meds for 20 years and I've been gaining weight ever since. Now I want to ask my doctor to reduce my dose of medication because I feel so good.
