But your appointment isn't until January 20. You still have time. I'd let go of the stress and anticipation and refocus your efforts on eating better and moving more. That's the long term goal anyway. (And maybe give the nutritionist a call. Is it Rebecca? She's terrific. She might be able to give you some practical advice.)
Remember to treat yourself kindly. A lot of us got overweight by talking to ourselves in the most unkind way. Nothing good is ever accomplished by beating ourselves up. Just dust yourself off and take good care of yourself.
Good luck!

I am so glad that I did the 5DPT. I am feeling great and I am confident that my tool works perfectly as long as I work it. I am measuring my food the most I have been able to eat is 4 to 5 oz and I feel extremely full. With dense protein I could barely fit the 4oz today. Wooo hooooo!!
I have lost 7 pounds since Monday My weight is 147 so my goal is to get back to 144 by the end of next week.. I know a lot of it was water weight. I need to lay off the sodium. So I have decided to do the 5DPT again starting Monday for another 5 days. I want to really kick this carb monster cravings for a good long time.
So, I thank you all for reading my updates and for the encouragement and support. I hope that a few people more members feel inspired to do it as well. The 5DPT will definitely help you get back to basics.
Have a wonderful night!

I have missed being on the board as well. I took a little break to back away from som foolish drama. I am now focusing on me and helping others. I will not let petty stuff keep me away from helping others here.
I am so glad you decided to try it. I am very proud of you!!

I don't know what he charges and if he can get you in by that date but you can call and find out.
Dr. David Von Reuden at St. Agnes Hospital. Baltimore, MD 443-928-3068
He is an excellent Dr. as well.
I am sure others will chime in too with their recommendations.
Best of luck in your journey.
