The nurse was very nice and wanted to know what i did and she actually said that IP was a very good diet as even after surgery, the right way to eat is to promote protein meals with veggies and best to separate the fats and carbs.
Now since gastric bypass is covered by the medicare here, i asked her that since i save the government money in not having the surgery, would that give me a boost to have them cover to remove my loose skin..helas it doesn't lol (i was asking jokingly).
So just had to share that IP saved me from surgery and i'm sure i would not have lost the weight faster than the 10 months it took me on IP.
Now if i could just get my tummy tuck approved, i'll be one happy lady
Wow What a great JOB Looking good
