I know, Flame 78, the same thing happened to me. I tried it all (except diet pills which I think may be harmful).

It may be that I've finally found success after learning how seriously injurious grains which contain gluten are. So I've removed them from my diet; my appetite is becoming rapidly regulated so that I don't crave foods and I don't over eat at meal-time. It is primarily WHEAT that is the problem.

Wheat was re-engineered in the 2oth century to contain more gluten because it makes breads lighter. The side effects, however, are very serious. (Please read
the New York Best Seller recently called Wheat Belly by Dr. David Williams.)

Gluten contains a substance called exorphins which act on the opiate centers of the brain creating cravings for more (approximately every two hours). If one is sensitive to gluten, he or she is going to get a "snootful" of undesirable reactions, including
weight gain (and wheat has a higher glycemic index than sugar does! And it's just
as addictive, if not more so.)

I suggest trying it for 2 weeks and see how you feel and how your appetite is.
Dr. Williams says that it's 180 proof nonsense that we cannot live without grains.
All we need to do is substitute green vegetables, nuts, seeds, to get the amino acids contained in wheat.

I have found it to be remarkable in calming feeling tone, as well. The Omega 3 fatty acids are an excellent addition to the diet, and I wouldn't be without them for helping to keep things "cool and calm".

Good wishes.
