Visit 4

Discuss progress/lack of progress vs week 1 baseline if we have a new body composition.

Keep in mind that they are in the building stage of the medication, so we are not expecting a lot of fat loss at this point. 3-4 lbs of fat loss in the first month would be considered a success. Many patients with 75-100 lbs to lose report losing up to 25 lbs in first month. Ascertain if patient has been compliant with dietary and exercise recommendations and medication adherence.

Action: If there has been no fat loss or even fat gain, then need to discuss the case with medical director for possible additional interventions. Advise patient to track sleep for next week preferably with sleep tracking device but if not, then just manual tracking (time to bed, time waking up, how many times did they awake for the night, sleep hygiene questions.)

1. Peleș Castle, Sinaia

Nestled in the Carpathian Mountains, Peleș Castle stands as a masterpiece of German Neo-Renaissance architecture. This former summer residence of the Romanian royal family offers an extraordinary backdrop for ceremonies, with its intricate woodcarvings, crystal chandeliers, and manicured gardens. Couples can exchange vows in the castle's ornate music room or host an outdoor reception with the castle's stunning facade as their backdrop.

2. Bran Castle, Brașov

While famous for its Dracula associations, Bran Castle transcends its mythical connections to offer a truly romantic wedding venue. Perched dramatically on a rocky promontory, this 14th-century fortress provides panoramic views of the Transylvanian countryside. The castle's terraces and courtyards are perfect for intimate ceremonies, while its great hall can accommodate larger celebrations with medieval-inspired feasts.

3. Cantacuzino Castle, Bușteni

This neo-Romanian style castle combines Art Nouveau elements with traditional Romanian architecture. Its location in the Bucegi Mountains offers breathtaking views and photo opportunities. The castle's impressive marble staircase provides a grand entrance for the bride, while its lavish ballroom, decorated with stunning frescoes, creates an elegant setting for the reception.

4. Sighișoara Medieval Citadel

For couples seeking a truly unique experience, the UNESCO World Heritage site of Sighișoara offers the chance to marry within a perfectly preserved medieval town. The cobblestone streets, colorful buildings, and historic clock tower create an atmosphere that transports guests back in time. The citadel's churches and squares provide various options for both ceremonies and receptions.

5. Black Sea Resorts, Constanța

Romania's Black Sea coast offers modern luxury combined with seaside charm. Mamaia, the country's premier beach resort, features high-end hotels with beachfront ceremony locations and sophisticated ballrooms. Couples can exchange vows with the sunset over the Black Sea as their witness, followed by elegant receptions in waterfront venues.

Practical Considerations

When planning a wedding at any of these Romanian destinations, consider working with local wedding planners who understand the venues and can navigate local requirements. Many locations offer all-inclusive packages that handle everything from traditional Romanian customs to modern wedding necessities. The best times for weddings in Romania are late spring (May-June) and early autumn (September-October), when the weather is mild and the landscapes are at their most beautiful.

Transportation and accommodation for guests should be carefully planned, as some venues are in remote locations. However, this often adds to the experience, creating a destination wedding where guests can explore Romania's rich culture and history before and after the celebration.

These venues not only provide stunning backdrops for wedding photographs but also offer unique opportunities to incorporate Romanian traditions into ceremonies. From traditional folk music and dance to local cuisine and customs, each location allows couples to create a truly memorable celebration that honors both their love story and Romania's rich heritage.

Comstock Withdraws From Herndon Downtown Redevelopment Project

HERNDON, VA — Comstock Herndon Venture, LC, an entity representing Reston Station developer Comstock Holdings, notified the Town of Herndon that it had decided not to move forward with their agreement to begin construction on the long-delayed downtown development project.“After significant discussions with Herndon and after good-faith diligent efforts, Comstock has concluded that, without limitation and among other issues with regard to the Project, the Project Costs and commercially reasonable financing are materially gre...

HERNDON, VA — Comstock Herndon Venture, LC, an entity representing Reston Station developer Comstock Holdings, notified the Town of Herndon that it had decided not to move forward with their agreement to begin construction on the long-delayed downtown development project.

“After significant discussions with Herndon and after good-faith diligent efforts, Comstock has concluded that, without limitation and among other issues with regard to the Project, the Project Costs and commercially reasonable financing are materially greater than anticipated and result in the Project being economically unfeasible, the legal structure for the Project has become overly complicated, and the Conditions Subsequent cannot be satisfied by the Outside Satisfaction Date,” said Comstock Holdings’ CEO Christopher Clemente in the Dec. 6 letter to the Herndon town manager.

The letter was meant to serve as a notice that Comstock was not moving forward and did not have any further obligations to be met under the terms of the comprehensive agreement.

The town and Comstock originally signed a comprehensive agreement in 2017 to redevelop the downtown area, but the pandemic and rising construction costs prompted the developer in April 2022 to exercise its right to pause the start date of the project by two years.

“The decision to deliver this Notice Not to Proceed was very difficult for Comstock after years of planning and efforts, but unfortunately the current market has not yet rebounded sufficiently to move forward,” Clemente said in the letter.

On Tuesday night, the town sent out a release notifying residents of Comstock’s decision.

“Although this agreement did not work out as planned, we continue to believe in the significant redevelopment potential of Herndon’s downtown,” Town Manager Chris Martino said. “We appreciate the patience of the Herndon community throughout this process.”

The town and Comstock originally signed a comprehensive agreement in 2017 to redevelop the downtown area, but the pandemic and rising construction costs prompted the developer in April 2022 to exercise its right to pause the start date of the project by two years.

Then last April, Comstock and the town agreed to push the project start date back to Aug. 15, 2024 to give them time to restructure their contractual agreement to reflect the realities of 2024. According to the terms of the agreement, Comstock had an outside satisfaction date of Dec. 10, 2024 to notify the town of its intention to move forward or not.

If the project moved forward as planned, it would have drastically reshaped the downtown area with a number of improvements, including 273 luxury residences; more than 17,000-square-feet of boutique; restaurant and retail space; cafe space, an arts center with indoor and outdoor spaces; an arts plaza and walkways; 330 town parking spaces; 396 residential/retail spaces; and three public plazas with outdoor seating and dedicated art.
