Good Morning all! This weekend, I purchased Diet Rehab and am on chapter 2 right now. It really looks promising and am wondering if anyone here has already read and put this book into practice?

According to other reviews, the author, Dr. Mike Dow, helps readers confront the truly addictive nature of the foods they eat, and why they indulge in the ways that they do. And how the feelings we encounter that make us want to eat in unhealthy ways can be managed. Readers say he offers a succinct and easy to follow game plan on how to combat unhealthy eating habits - so it sounds good to me!
Dow says the central principle of Diet Rehab is this:
"When your life is full of serotonin- and dopamine-boosting activities, and your thoughts trigger big doses of serotonin and dopamine and the self-esteem, optimism and energy they bring, you ill no longer crave the fix of sweets and starches."
Let us know what you think of the book as you get further into it :-)
Sounds super interesting - I may have to move this one a little higher on my current must-read list! haha
Cheers, thanks for sharing!
