How was your Christmas?
Did you manage to retain some sense of balance or was it an orgy of gorging and bingeing? Today is an alcohol free day as I start to plan some new stuff for the clinic in 2007. We have at last gone live with our e:commerce site so people can buy stuff stright from the site. I won't bore you with the technicalities of html, shopping carts and payment gateway integration - believe me it's been a trial but I think we're there.
I'm now hard at work on the next issue of Good Living, which is long overdue mainly because I've been working on the e:commerce site. Lots of new articles and stuff to share with you to get 2007 off to a good start on the wellbeing front.
Our big theme for 2007 is weight loss and weight management, with two new programmes launching in January. The Natural Plan for those who don't feel comfortable with medication, and the Platinum Plan which combines our doctors, nutritional therapists and food intolerance screeners all working together in what I think is a unique way to help our patients shed the flab.
What are you doing for New Year's Eve? We are off to a fabulous dinner dance in Weybridge with a brilliant band fronted by our neighbour's son. He plays keyboards and trumpet and the band covers everything from Motown to jazz via blues and soul.
Big upheaval on the domestic front in January as we move to Richmond. We are downsizing from a 5 bed house to a 2 bed flat so there are some painful decisions to be made. Ever tried selling second hand furniture? You can't give it away these days. Even charities have got warehouses full of the stuff...
Whatever you are doing at New Year, enjoy it and keep reading as we bring more advice, tips and hints and new stuff to you in 2007.
Warmest best wishes for 2007.
Graham
