weight loss and holiday functions

First, I want to cordially invite all of you to our annual Patient Appreciation Nite scheduled for Friday, December 5, 2009 from 5-730PM. We do this every year and this is now our 21st year in practice. Please stop by and say "hi" and allow us to thank you personally for being our patient. There is not a day that goes by when I do not realize that I am the luckiest Doctor in the world to have such a great patient population of intelligent, fun, stimulating and wonderful people who allow me the honor of taking care of their medical and/or weight loss needs. YOU have allowed me to focus on medicine and not get bogged down with a depressing insurance based practice. YOU have allowed us to grow into the largest medically supervised weight loss program in the D.C. area. We never forget your importance to us and want to thank you for being our patient. Karioke again this year!!!! A great hit!!!

As we are preparing for this event, we always ensure that we have "healtheir" food and drink choices for those of us who are trying to control our weight. Obviously, with us running a weight loss center, it would be kind of ridiculous for us to only have cake, sandwiches, beers, etc. There will be lots of healthy choices. However, as you plan your holiday events, always remember that there will be many people at your function who will similarly be in a weight losing mode. Please ensure that you too have "healthy" choices available. Sometimes when we go into a weight losing mode, we take a bit of pleasure in "feeding " others. Have choices available!
