For my fellow companions on this journey of weight-loss:
Bottom Line, a newsletter said the following:
In a study of 105 people, we found that those who inhaled a chocolate-like aroma whenever they felt like eating lost nearly three pounds in two weeks. A study of 3193 volunteers found that sniffing bannana, green apple or peppermint scents resulted in an average weight loss o f 30 pounds in six months. Sniff the above foods often, and smell every food beofre you eat it. Your brain will perceive that you're eating more, thus suprresing your appetite.
