I have seen my Dr once every 4 to 6 weeks.... and my nut I was seeing every month and now back to every 2 months..but I do see her at monthly support groups....and I know I can call either any time I need to....They are both always easy to talk to and always honest....I never feel rushed out of either office.... Doesnt hurt my Dr is soooo cute !!!!

  19. One thing that helped me is I went out and bought myself a new water bottle a real night one at WalMart for 4 dollars...it holds 4 cups...and every morning I fill it and that reminds me to take vitamins...and then as soon as I drink that I fill it again and I sip all day long...days Im to busy and dont do my rutine...I dont drink as much and I find Im hungry,,,Good Luck..You can do it !
