Oddzilla:
Thank you for the nice response. I will be happy to report the eventual results of replacing Prozac. I hope that I will be able to share positive results. Thanks for the lead to past reports on L-Tryptophan.
Take care.

> Thanks for posting your experiences and the book recommendations. I gained weight on Prozac too. And I took it when it first came out and they were claiming it caused weight loss. So I took a lot of credit for lack of self-control,etc. When I finally got off it the weight gradually came off without any particular effort on my part. It was impossible to lose when I was on Prozac.
