We would like to wish all of our patients and their families a happy holiday season As the holiday season quickly approaches with events and parties the dieter is often left out in the cold. Th choices at parties are rarely diet friendly. The holiday atmosphere is usually carefree with lots of family, friends, co-workers trying to convince you to partake. You have worked hard all year and may feel that you deserve to let loose. You are tempted to pack away the diet for the duration of the holiday season and sort out the fallout with a New Year Resolution to get back on track. That is a HUGE MISTAKE! This year do something different: 1) Continue to come for your weigh ins. Accountability and support will help prevent self sabotage. 2) We will provide you with tips that will allow you to partake in the Pre- holiday fun without piling the pounds back on. 3) You will get a little break with our Holiday Break Out Plan that allows you to enjoy a bit of everything. 4) We will deal with the inevitable New Years Resolution after enjoying the holidays with no guilt and no judgement for what has happened. 5) We will sit down together and plan where to go from here.
