What Works, Part II

Celexa: Not as an antidepressant, mind you. Or, at least, it's not yet knocking my socks off. But as a weight reducer? It rocks. Or maybe it's just having gone off that godawful-to-me Effexor. Whatever it is, after six-plus months of watching my weight go up and up and up and up despite eating better and better and exercising more and more, I'd finally given up and stopped watching my food so carefully (though I still get out and walk several times a week). Coincidentally, at the same time, I stopped taking Effexor, and started taking Celexa. And now, maybe two weeks later, I'm down a good five pounds. Imagine where'd I be if I weren't indulging in near-daily vanilla ice-cream sandwiches?
