Check out the comment to yesterdays blog entry....the entry is about "control"...how it seems to be the case that the compulsion to eat or the food itself seems to control us as opposed to us controlling the food intake. Why/how does this happen?
There are many things that occur during the day that are not under our control..from the inclement weather to a traffic jam on our commute to a foul mood of a supervisor..often our entire day is full of things/events that are beyond our control.
One of the few things that really is under our control is the food and liquids we ingest. However, at times, it seems that we lose control of this as well. Due to chemical cravings, psychological issues, etc., we often lose control of the ability to make the right choices to be happier and healthier.
Try as best you can to always remember that YOU are the "boss" when it comes to food sources you ingest. YOU decide to bypass the high-caloric derailing food sources (notice I didnt use the words "sweets, treats or goodies") in favor of something that will be much healthier and allow you to look so much younger and feel so miuch better. YOU can exert control and you will be rewarded for this!

So you are saying that it is a matter of changing the power dynamic in my mind...I will think about it. And find ways to change my internal dialogue.
The question however is this - does that overwhelming craving come back after I come off the Serotonin? If so, it would be like asking an alcoholic to drink only a little.
