Not worth it,
By Chris Higgins "Surprisingly Successful Writer" (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Lose the Weight Caused by Antidepressants: Get YOU Back Again (Paperback)
I recommend that you don't waste your time on this book. It's full of quasi-medical claptrap (and contains a number of glaring typos) which boils down to "the body digests food and your digestive system needs to function well." There, that's the first section of the book. The rest of it is a "plan" that effectively boils down to: take vitamins, manage your diet and exercise (with a brief mention of basic food-combining principles), and again, make sure your colon and digestive system is working properly. There are repeated enticements to buy specific supplements and products from a specific vendor, though it's not clear if the author is affiliated with that vendor. Much of the page count is taken up by a useless appendix listing various medical definitions. Anyway, this is not worth $10.
For what it's worth, it appears that the book is self-published. Each page contains liberal amounts of whitespace to pad what is effectively a pamphlet into a "book." As an overweight person who has been on antidepressants, I thought there would be some genuine medical insight or some "secret" in here. What I found was a pretty crappy pamphlet which was apparently designed to entice those who (like me) Googled for a solution to my problem.

Improved mood and already feel the changes,
This review is from: Lose the Weight Caused by Antidepressants: Get YOU Back Again (Paperback)
I have been using the weight loss approach for 2 days now and I am very impressed so far. Too soon to notice weight loss but my mood and energy have improved beyond belief. If the weight loss also works I will be more than satisfied.

Another weight loss gimmick...Don't waste your money!,
This review is from: Lose the Weight Caused by Antidepressants: Get YOU Back Again (Paperback)
This 28 page book is not worth the money. It is written by an "internationally known SPEAKER" not doctor or any other professional in the medical field. The book is filled with one liners and very poorly written, and can be read in about ten minutes. It is very clear the author's underlying motivation for publishing this book. He wants you to spend hundreds of dollars on products from a company he promotes. I am very disappointed in my purchase and I caution anyone from spending the money and making the same mistake I did.

It Does Work,

This review is from: Lose the Weight Caused by Antidepressants: Get YOU Back Again (Paperback)
I have been on just about every antidepressant out there and I have gained significant weight while taking Zoloft, Lexapro and Paxil. This book DOES work but you must take the Omega 3's and the CLA at the very least. These items can be purchased from Walmart or Walgreens, you dont have to buy them from TRB Health. You also need to watch what you eat. I personally lost weight successfully following Weight Watchers and combining the recommended supplements in the book which I purchased from the drug store. So, you critics, dont knock it til you try it! This is not a "gimmick" and, yes, the author isnt a doctor. But then those of us who have sought advice from the medical community haven't gotten very far, have we? I am grateful for this book and I recommend it highly.

Totally delighted with book,
This review is from: Lose the Weight Caused by Antidepressants: Get YOU Back Again (Paperback)
Here I am now weeks later after my first review.
This book is short and to the point like the review states and I am glad I did not have to wade through hundreds of worthless pages to find what I was looking for. Week number 3 the weight began falling off and I lost several sizes now! Nothing else worked before. I recommend this book to all of my friends.

Not my miracle,

This review is from: Lose the Weight Caused by Antidepressants: Get YOU Back Again (Paperback)
Hoped this would be my miracle...after almost 3 years of trying to lose the weight brought on by anti-depressants I was really excited about getting this book. I've followed the book to the letter for the last 4 weeks and have seen no decrease in size. What looks too good to be true probably is...

I liked the booklet...the only problem is it was difficult to follow, a summary with steps as to what needs to be done/taken as supplements would have greatly helped.
