In the December 2007 issue of Self magazine, a reporter went on my diet. This is part of what she wrote:
quote:
My enthusiasm for the whole project was waning. It had been nearly three weeks since I popped my first fish oil capsule, and my genitals were still not all atwitter on the highway or in the bedroom. When would I have an orgasmic breakthrough?
In hindsight I think I was too focused on waiting for my body to go into overdrive. That's because the first day that I was so busy with mothering duties for my two daughters, a deadline and a grueling workout that I didn't even have a moment to think about the state of my libido, I found myself initiating sex with Steve, despite my fatigue. A kiss and a grope later, I was in full erotic ardor, as if we'd been at it for much longer. Not to get too graphic, but my sensitivity was electric; this was no ordinary night between the sheets. Afterward, both of us panting, I said to Steve, "I think the plan is working."
"Working" turned out to be the understatement of the year. The change, which seemed to take forever to occur, gave me whiplash when it finally arrived. My sex life went from a 3 to a 9, seemingly overnight. I can only describe it as "louder," set at a higher volume by every measure. I found myself thinking about sex constantly. I couldn't get anything done. And poor Steve! By the end of the month, he started to look scared when I climbed into bed at night. I scaled back on the testosterone-freeing calcium-magnesium-zinc by one third, and my libido calmed down enough for me to get through an entire dinner without tackling my husband.
G-spot orgasms remain elusive, and Lindberg tells me I won't experience them unless I use the Gyneflex. I don't really care. I've crossed an important threshhold. I've gone from enjoying sex to flat-out loving it. The results have been purely physiological and are unrelated to emotion or psychology. I haven't reduced my stress level by taking bubble baths or become gooey and romantic because Steve took out the trash without my telling him. We haven't lingered over a candlelit dinner. God knows, he hasn't given me diamonds. It was a truly physical awakening.
The review in self magazine is what lead to me to your book. I bought the book over the internet the same night I read the article. I am 23 and have PCOS and I am prediabetic. I am hoping that this diet will work for me. I finished reading the book in one night and now all I have to do is get all my supplies together so I can start the diet. I can't wait. I fell awful knowing that I am only 23 and have no desire to have sex and I don't think I have ever actually had a real orgasm. I am really excited about this diet because I would love to be excited about sex and not look at it as something that I wish would be over as soon as possible. I am sure my husband will be very pleased if I could find some pleasure in it. I think the book is great and I love how I feel like I actually know something about you just from the way you wrote the book. I hope the review helps get the word out there for you. It sure attracted me to your book.
Thanks, Ash

I, too, ordered the book after reading most of the review in Self. (I couldn't read all of it because I was doing cardio at the gym and the headline was a little too obvious, considering there was a guy on the machine right next to me. =.)
I'm still reading and haven't had a chance to put any of the diet into action, but I hope to get started on it in the next week or so.

Well I'm new here but belong to another group of moms. A few of us have had problems in the libido department. I saw the article in the self diet and was looking for more information to post on our site when I stumbled upon this site. I've joined here to get feedback and advise. I've taken the fish oil supplements for only about 4 days but I'm already feeling some changes. I've shared the information with my other mom friends too.
