Will I be ok?

Please advise.  I have an appointment 1 June with Dr S. inference to his weight loss program.  Lipotropic Shots is part of the program.  I suffer with hypertension, controlled by daily medication.  Will the Lipotropic Shots elevate my BP?  Help! b-slim

I made the call to Dr Sanchez's office.  a member of his staff stated that they have several patients with BP problems, and I will be fine as long as my BP is controlled, which it is.

Hello everyone, sorry it took me so long to get back with you all.  My appointment went well.  I love it!!!!!!!.  The first week I lost 8 pounds.  I will go to the Dr. tomorrow to get another shot and the Bontril.  I hope to have lost at least 3 to 4 more pounds.  I am doing the Adkins diet plan along with the shots and Bontril, plus I am walking on my treadmil 5 days a week 30 min a day.  I have the energy to work out now, where I didnt before.  I am also doing the Extreme Colon Cleasner. Unlike everyone that I have read about on this sight, it took several days for it to work for me.  Wish me good luck tomorrow on my weight, I have about 42 pounds to go. Will chat later!

Went to the Dr. yesterday, lost another 21/2 pounds. This is my second week, so far I am doing great.  Each time I loose a pound it motivates me even more, and that's a great feeling.

I was reading the comments u posted late May about the lipotropic program and I found it to be very interesting that u mentioned Dr. Sanchez. I'm located in montgomery, al and I have been hearing about the program and a mutual friend referred me to the office of Dr. Sanchez. I have made an appointment but I cancelled and put it off 4 a later date. Reason being, I'm just a little skeptical about it and need more questions answered to how safe it is and what are the future side effects. What I want to know is were we referring to the same Dr., how are the shots, and if there are any future side effects that u know of. From what I been reading about the program, it seems very helpful to a healthy lifestyle.

Hello,  I am 100% sure that we are talking about the same Dr.  He is located on the Atlanta Hwy, just up the street from Publix.  You wanted to know more about the weight loss program.  Everyones' body is different and reactions to medications might not be the same.  For me the Lipotropic shots are the best thing since slice bread.  The shots give me the energy I need to work out etc, prior to I didn't have enough energy to get out of bed let alone work out.  I love doing house work but,it was always a drag because I just didn't feel up to doing it, now that I have the energy. This is my 3rd week into the program and I have not experienced any side affects with the shots, everything has worked really well for me.  I have lost a total of 13 pounds.  The Bontril also works really well.  There are some days I have to make myself eat.  Please drink plenty of water at all times to prevent constipation, this is one of the side affects of the Bontril.  If you decide to re-schudel your appointment and go for it, I really believe you will have no regrets.  I would also suggest that you do a colon cleasning, this will also aid in helping to loose weight.  I ordered the Extreme Colon Cleasning off the net.  This took a while to work for me, about a week, most people on this forum same day results.  Hope this has helped.  let me know what you decide.

Thanks for your response. I have a couple of more questions. Is the Bontril a separate shot from the lipotropic shot? Is it an appetite suppressant?  I used to run 3 days a week, 2miles a day. I'm gonna be getting back to that real soon. The lipo program along with some good cardio should very helpful. Another thing I noticed u said u had to make yourself eat sometimes. Why is that? Please excuse all my  questions. Just curious that's all. P.S - I have an appointment for july 24. I put it off until after I come back from summer camp cause if I started b4 I went then I wouldn't be able to continue my visits for the shots.
