Happy Holiday weekend! We do have office hours this morning and tomorrow (what's next, Dr.Scrooge making people work on Christmas day???) but we are closed this afternoon. The weather is supposed to be very nice so plan some outside recreational activities.
Reminder: at the cookouts and gatherings alcohol will be the number one culprit for derailing your weight loss efforts followed by excessive carb intake. Try to strategize your approach to the events you will be attending and have a "plan" as to how to NOT make the hoiliday weekend an eat and drink-a -thon that will make you get on that scale this week and shake your head in dismay. Learn how to attend these functions and have a great time without having to consume too many calories.
And...if you do gain a bit of weight because of the holiday events, do NOT cancel your appointment next week! We understand that certain times are more challenging than others and the one week NOT to cancel your appointment is the one wheree weight is gained. We can help you refocus and get that weight off.
Enjoy!!!!

Holiday picnics often include an array of salads and protein items. Diet sodas, bottled waters, and unsweetened teas are also frequently offered. Avoidance of alcohol and dessert trays is one way not to slide, while still allowing a person to enjoy the holiday festivities.
I just read this morning on AOL about all the free food offers to celebrate the 4th...free chicken wings at Checkers, free stuffed pizze rolls at Pizza Hut, and buy one,get one free sundaes at Ben and Jerrys and Blizzards at D.Q.
Someone made an interesting comment about offfering these "deals" to an already obese nation can't be good and we don't even have to get out of our cars to get the food!
What's wrong with this picture?
