From the Desk of Dr. Lorraine  December 2007

Greetings From Beyond Wellness Mobile! I am very happy and excited to continue the celebration of  the launching of the long awaited "Beyond Wellness" web site. I continue to be over whelmed by the positive response and great encouragement. Questions are flowing in and I am so happy to be of help to you.

                          ***************Wrap up for 2007****************

**The holidays are here and many are concerned about weight gain over this festive time of the year.Did you know  that most people only gain 1 pound over the time period  between Thanksgiving and New year's day. It is very inportant to be concious of what you are eating ,but all and all it is okay to moderatley enjoy the hoilday parties.Just don't over do it. : )

**Now that the weather is changing(slowly in So Cal) and if you enjoy long baths, consider showering or spending a shorter time in the tub.The act of soaking may be relaxing after a long day at the mall but it is sure to dry your skin out and leave you a bit itchy. If you must, place olive oil with some bath salts,to help defend your skin against the drying effect of the warm soaking water.

** Concentrate on adding more fruits and veggies.Before you eat your main course eat a couple of servings of the veggies.It helps to curb your appetite and help cut unwanted calories.

**Don't wait to the New Year to make a great New Year's resolution........Make it today and get a headstart on the New Year!!

                                     ******************Final Words************************

As this year rapidly winds down and expectation for the "New' is upon us, I would like to say thank-you for over 13 years of rewarding,meaningful work.As I fully transition the practice "mobile" and placing a greater amount of time on helping people at their worksite place and in their private homes.  I also will be now able to help train Lauren during the track season to a greater degree. I am very thankful for the lessons I have learned in treating and caring for patients in private office practice since the time I graduated back in 1995.

Thank-you to my loving for continued support and encouragement family Henry and Lauren , my 1st family Mom and Dad, Gina,Lisa,and Mona and their wonder husbands and the family I have chosen my special friends  Bonnie always on myside ,Jean always encouraging and ready for the Spa,Ursula a sage beyond her years,Dionne a great mom and doctor,Jackie always providing wisdom  and showing be just how much Jesus loves me...and last but not least Kim the marketing genious that is always so willing to share until I get it,even when it take more than one time to get it.
