How do you know if you need an adjustment or not?
Issue: #9 October/2009
Car v band

School is back, and it is time to think about getting on track for weight loss. Our support group schedule is back on twice a month, and we have a few specials for you to consider.
Tonight - at 6:30 pm we will have support group at the hospital next door.
New podcasts are coming to the website!
 
Do I need an adjustment
 How do you know?
You haven't lost the weight you should, but you are feeling satisfied between meals. Do you need an adjustment?

This is always the question- but it is best answered before you come to the office.  How do you do it? You perform a few simple science experiments.

Measure your food out for different meals-- four ounces (by volume) of meat/fish/poultry - and six ounces of vegetables. Plate this meal out-- eat it slowly, and note how long it takes you before you start to feel hungry again.

Don't do  this just once, but a number of times-- the more you do it, the more accurate information we have, and the better you can help us determine if you need an adjustment. The key is how long before you feel hungry again.

IT IS NEVER- NEVER - NEVER - a matter of how much you can eat at a single sitting. The band is not a click here to finish the article
Monthly botox party
Botox Baby
We are starting a monthly botox party for those who want to have a bit of help with the wrinkles. Once a month we will have a botox party somewhere in the valley and will provide a special email announcement for those.
But the Friday before Halloween (OCT 30th) -- we will have BOTOX Friday - come in and get some botox at a reduced rate of $10 per unit.   Botox Friday will start at 8 am and end at noon. No appointment needed - just come in for the Botox and we will get you set up!
This next month we will have the party in old town Scottsdale - so stay tuned for this announcement, and think about how botox can get rid of a few wrinkles!
 
A few changes
Car v band Monday afternoons
Monday afternoons is now available for our patients who need to have a fill or come in to see about their bands. We needed another afternoon open for our established and our newer patiens and this seemed like a good one..
 
We are also in the process of opening time once a month on the East side of the valley for fills and perhaps even a support group and seminars. Stay tuned for this.  We are working with an out patient surgery center that is undergoing some construction.
 

We are coming out with a new cookbook shortly, and workbook for our patients. We hope that you find it useful and informative, as we have added some new sections-- all new recipes, and special sections for eating out.

In addition we are starting a new program for our patients-- we greatly appreciate your referrals of patients to our practice -- it is the nicest way that you say thanks to us for the service we have given you.  So we want to say thanks to you. Below is a coupon - if you refer someone and they get a band, you get a fill. This program starts November 1st and runs through the holiday.

Sincerely,

Here is the fine print: refer a patient- once they get a band, then turn in this coupon for a free office visit/with or without an adjustment.

If you don't know that the person had surgery or not- you can still turn in this coupon and once we see they have had their surgery we will credit you with one free office visit with or without adjustment (depending on what you need)
