You can do. Just stick to what you have been doing. If you REALLy feel like you need some "back-up" go out and purchase 5-htp it is an OTC supplement that can help decrease appetite.

What are you going to do?

OMG tell you what I would do, I'd F R E A K ! Then I'd get duct tape ... and ....

Seriously - don't lose focus, PLAN your meals because your hunger may come back and you need to be ready to eat and eat the good for you stuff!

I'd be MORE concerned about AFTER July 18th?
I think I could deal with a week, but possibly longer? Hmmmm

I will check out the Absolutely thin, but it is real right? I am terrified to order online since all the horror stories. Thanks for all the tips guys, I am gonna try to look at this as a "minibreak" so maybe if I keep the weight downish, I can jumpstart and finally get into the 170s! Then the 160s!

Are you in a state that you could order it from Dr. Branch from Absolutelythin? Just a thought.

did you call the office and see if they listed an alternate doc to see in his abence on his voice mail? usually when docs go out for some reason they usually leave a number of someone to touch base with. Does he practice as part of a group of physicians? you might be able to call one of them to handle it in his abence. If you can't get the shot and phen this week, just remember the phen is not entirely responsible for your weight loss! You are the one that has to stop you from eating, and you can do it!

Plan your meals and your snacks out well in advance, make sure you are eating things that will keep you full. High protein, high fiber and drinking lots of water. If you have your meals and snacks all ready and planned out it's much harder to "cheat" Good luck!

I'm so afraid that I will do horrible and this is just MESSING me all up! Don't know what to do...

hey I feel your pain. I went out of town for 3 week and my doc was on vacation the week before. 4 weeks without my shot combo AND I had to take 5 days off phen!!! I was worried too but I did great. 8 pound in 4 weeks, and I didn;t get to work out cause both kids were sick and they needed mommy!!!!! You will be great

I agree. Really, who knows they are going to be sick for seven more days?

I have never had this happen before, but maybe ask...or beg your pharmacist for advice. The pharmacist knows which other docs in your area are prescribing this med, maybe you can get hooked up with one of them.
