My Story: 

I have never been a "small" girl so when people heard what I was weighing they were shocked. I am 5'11 and my normal "healthy looking" weight is 175. 7 years ago I had breast cancer. Part of that treatment was 5 years on Tamoxifen. The first 2 years were uneventful. Then on year 3, I started to gain ALOT of weight = 74 pounds! This truly was unexplained, as I have always been a healthy eater. Not going to deny that I enjoy things like pizza and pasta, and let's not forget the Oreos! but these are all in small moderation. Nothing was working to keep the weight stable or to lose it. I tried literally EVERY program out there, and the net result was weight gain and a whopping 274 pounds on the scale! I was literally at wits end, when a friend of mine (who I see here and there and had commented once that she looked like she was losing weight) posted a pic on Facebook next to her previous sixe 26 jeans, wearing a 14! She tagged IP in the photo and I had to check it out. I am one month in the program, down 22 pounds and 17 inches and this protocol is SO easy once you get the hang of it! LOVE I.P. Literally has saved me!
