MIC Injections, Methionine, Inositol, Cholineis, B12

I'm wondering about the success of the MIC Injections for any of you out there?  I just had my 4th weekly injection and am also on a 1200 calorie a day diet.  I have lost 4 lbs at the end of my 3rd week.  What I am noticing is that I am losing inches around my tummy (hips).  These shots are pretty expensive $250 for 5, but I get the weekly visit with my nurse practioner along with a weigh in and support from her & her staff so, I guess that isn't too bad :).  I haven't experienced too much in the way of more energy and hopefully that will come.  I'd love to hear from anyone that was on this program for any length of time and your experience with it.  Thank you.

Ouch! $250 for 5 injections?  Wow.  I've been paying $12.50 per shot.  I have a friend who gets these for $14 each at her doctor's office.  I hope that you get a lot of advice!!!

[sandypar1968]

Wow Judy!  That's expensive  - I am reading the ingredients of the 30ml vial I bought for $100 (total of 15 shots) same ingredients.  I have been using these for about three months & it has really made a difference.  The first month nothin major happened because I had not gotten serious about working out, but when I did (the second month)  the weight started dropping quickly and I am feeling really good.  I have lost a total of 25 lbs so far (and still dropping).  I suggest you find an alternative supplier.  If you know how to self-inject you can buy them online.  There are a couple of reputable clinics that will sell you the kits with syringes, needles and all.  Do your homework and you will save some money.

Best
Sandy

I just noticed you are in Florida.  Healing light holistic Center in Miami is where I get them.  I am happy with the quality and service and again, if you don't mind giving yourself the injections (it's easy) you save.

My goodness that is a lot of money for a visit and shots.  It's to bad you couldn't find a cheaper way of getting the medication and visit.  The doctor I go to offers B12 with Lipotropics shots online as well as in his office.  Google mydietsolutions and you will find them.  If my math is correct it's just under $13 a shot.  I am sorry you are having to pay so much to get healthier.  Maybe this information will help you.

Take care,

hello Sandy,

Healing Light Holistic Center is the clinic I go to in Miami.  I did not know that I could buy the kits.  I will ask her next time I see her if I can do this.  Although, I really like going into the clinic as I get acupuncture, hypnosis, and herbs in addition to the shots.  She charges $20 per shot and $50 for the acupuncture/hypnosis/herbs etc...  I think I might have been b12 deficient because I felt a difference right away.  Dr. G told me that if I happened to have a deficiency which a lot of people do I would feel it right away.

Happy dieting!

Hi Sandy, that seems very expensive. Try calling Dr. Scott Redrick in Crystal River, FL.352-564-8245. I am going there and the shots of MIC, B12 and B6 are less expensive

[CompounderRx]

I'm a compounding pharmacist and re-selling these shots to you from the doctors office breaks the triad law. It is against the law to resell these shots, it makes both parties manufacturers which is illegal for compounded products. These shots are made by a compounding pharmacy and if you are not careful you will be caught up in the mix as well. If you are caught and the doctors office is reported, all parties will be brought up to the state for a mandatory review, especially the pharmacy and physician office.

If you get these shots, get them within the office for "office use" purpose only. Also these shots must stay cold and out of the light or else they will lose activity in a short manner of time.

To anyone living in the NJ area, MIC injections are also offered at High Crest Health in Fairfield, NJ.  I just started going there, and am now on my second week of shots.  I have lost 3 lbs already in the first week, this is without exercise.  I have been following the diet plan that they gave me, and have not felt that deprived feeling that I normally get when I diet.  I'm excited to see how much more I will lose in their 10 week program!

[kay1969]

I am getting 2 MIC injections weekly through Medi Weight Loss Centers. I pay $70./wk which includes: body fat analysis, 500 cal/day diet (protein only), phentermine, vitamin supplements including a fat burner to take with meals, the MIC injection is given to me in the office, and I may take another shot home with me to use half way through my week. Im only on week 2 and have lost 5 lbs the first week, I'll know Thursday after my appointment how much I lost the 2nd week. If you're serious about losing weight, I highly reccommend medi weight loss. You are under a doctor's supervision and it costs less than Jenny /Craig. Also they give you 100 keytosis reagent strips so you can check your urine for keytones; which means that your body is burning its fat stores for energy rather than carbs/sugar. It works! Good luck, and your paying waaaaay too much!

[bernadette915]

I read your post with great interest as I have just heard about the Medi Weight Loss centers.  I do have some concern regarding what exactly is in the injection.  Have you or anyone else done any research into the components of the MIC injection?  Is there any data as to side effects, long term adverse effects?  Would appreciate any information you have.  Thank you

[reeree43]

I have been on the weight loss program for two weeks. My first week I lost (7) pounds. My second week I lost (8) pounds.  I am so excited becuase this is the first diet plan that I went on and it really works.  I pay $35.00 dollars every week for the shot. I weight in every Monday. I have a strict 1200 calories meal plan and I also walk a mile every day except (Sunday).  Stay strong Still standing.  Email ***@****  Let me know how you are coming alone.

[reeree43]

I am glad to hear your progress and because I read your story I started the program two week ago.  I lost (15) pounds I know it can be done I am a witness to your story.  I started off weighing 333 punds.  I am at 316 now. I can not wait to weigh in on Monday.  I walk (1 )mile every day except Sunday.  I am on a strict diet also.

[lololoo]

I left my mic out of the fridge by mistake for about 5 hours.
Can you tell me what the detrimental effect would be from that?

[faith5545]

Thanks,
Lesley

Lost 12 Pounds in 6 Days and I am not obese about 30lbs overweight

i started going to the doctor last Friday weighed in at 207lbs 29 year old male 5"7 so not huge pretty athletic build. I do not count calories just measure meats 16oz very lean meats and green veggies 4-5oz green only, lettuce, pickles, sugar free jello my fillers. They gave me Calcium Pyruvate, Fish Oil with high Omega 3 make sure you find Fish Oil with high EPA 1200 mg †  DHA 600 mg    which I now buy from Whole Heatlh stuff at grocercy store has too much fat if you put in freezer overnight and it freezes its garbage. Make sure you take a really good multi vitamin. I got a Mic, Chromic Chloride, B12 Injection. I also drank between 140-180 ounces of fluid 1 20 ounce unsweet tea, the rest all water with about 2-3 waters per day with MIO in it. Mio is a new liquid water flavorer.I like to drink Votka so this week i had about 5 Votka drinks with water and a splash of Mio.

LOST 12 POUNDS in 6 DAYs

So many people on here relying on 500 calorie diets shot, sypnosis, and voodoo for weight loss.
Since it seems to have eluded you all, here is the secret guys..
Eat less
Move more

No need to starve yourself.
Shots are fine, but will not drop the weight like Diet and excercise will.
and when I say exercise, I mean lifting weight, and doing cardio.

Eat 500 calories under what you body requires in a day and you will drop 1 lb per week on average..
First, google the term "BMR calculator" and plus in your numbers to see how many calories your body needs for a day eat that amount on days you exercise, eat 500 calories less on days you don't.
Weight every single thing you eat, and plug it in to fitday.com or livestrong.com so you know how much you are eating.

[Kandilu22]

Anyone would lose weight on a 500-1200 cal diet. You are putting your body through unnecessary stress by pumping all of these chemicals through it. Your liver can only take so much. Eat a high protien/low carb diet. Workout 5 days a week: cardio and resistance training. Take the money that you're throwing at your doctor and get a personal trainer. They will make you more accountable than any scale ever will.
Only when you are living a lifestyle that you can MAINTAIN FOREVER, will you truely lose the weight and keep it off.

Im still going to stay on the program while on the shots to lose the weight but then Im going back to my protein shakes. If you need to lose the weight without the shot check this out.... lisawetzel.bodybyvi.com

[randy797]

I have used them for a little while and i love them. mic lipotropic injections are incredibly effective at helping you become the person you always wanted to be and feel great about it. I do! I really like them and recommend them to everyone I know. http://nmrmedical.com/products/lipotonix-plus-injections/

[seekingbeauty]

I was only reviewing this forum because I thought that I must be imagining the effectiveness of these MIC injections. I go to a place called JG Health Clinic in Palm Harbor where they sell them for I think $25, but you can get them in a package for $20, so obviously I do that. They have weekly promotions, so I'm sure you can get them for even less.
They work.

[flutterby32]

i started golds gym last wk and read about mic injections went for consultation n start my first shot mon 04/30/12 and i pay 20 wk for shot. i am excited and cant wait to c how it works for me!! glad everyone is having positive results!!

[chaseingk]

Sandy, I'm in Tampa too.  What clinic do you use?

[megpr2]

Where did you get it from ??????

[meghanann]

if you cut down on your calorie intake and/or workout, you are going to lose weight!!!!  you don't need any shots!!

[mrsteapot]

Meghan, some people canNOT lose by simply eating less.  I have never in my life eaten over 1200 cal per day, I do not drink alcohol, I do not drink caffeine,I DO drink 64 oz minimum water per day,  I do not eat sweets, I do not like breads and empty carbohydrates, I have not had real sugar in anything other than naturally occurring like fruit for over 12 years. I also work out a minimum of 4 days a week, running/power walking, nautilus, kickboxing, and weightlifting.  However, I am battling hypothyroidism, forced menopause, polycystic ovary disease, plain old genetics, and am 1 yr post chemo for breast cancer, and I have not been able to lose weight at all.  So before you judge me, please come walk a mile in my shoes and see if you can fill them.

[Nayoung]

Can someone purchase Lipotropic injection for me/??? I need help. I can not find any place to purchase the lipotropic around my area. If anyone want to purchase for me I would be really appreciated.
