Ugh.... Who likes to be weighed?  Not Me!

I got the grim news... and my BMI.... and the breakdown that said how much of me was fat,  how much was muscle, and how much was water.  - 

Weighed, measured... photo taken blood chemistry drawn... injections given...EKG, History and Mini-Physical and a prescription for the appetite suppressant!

I had expected a lecture... but instead he said... this is not all your fault. You eat foods that stimulate insulin production and people who have too much insulin store the majority of the carbs they consume as FAT.

He also said that he knows this to be a fact:  Women can't stick to a diet and lose weight if they are hungry  - so if your BMI is high enough you will get an appetite suppressant  - 7 pills each week... the cost of those pills and the weekly B12 shot are included in your weekly fee.

The appetite suppressant can only be prescribed for 12 weeks... no more.  If you miss a weekly doctor appointment, you miss a week of appetite suppressants. No exceptions. They are very highly re gulated.... and I love them. It is so wonderful to go through the day and eat when your stomach is growling instead of thinking about food all day long. 

I left there with an insulated lunch bag full of supplements, and instructions for the first week.... I can honestly say it was $295 well spent.... every dime of it!
