b12 with lipotropic injections

by 4everyoung, Jul 17, 2006 12:00AM
I am new to the site and wanted to know if anyone has been successful with injectable B12 with lipotropic? If so, how long did it take for you to start seeing results? and how much did you lose in that amount of time. Where can I purchase them on-line? and does anyone know if I can take these shots along with HCG shots? or would this be overkill? Are there any side effects from taking any one of the above injections? I would appreciate any help I can get. I've spent so much money on products that didn't work and it's quite frustrating to take drugs that have uncomfortable side effects and you don't see any results after suffering through them.  Help.....

look for a dr. that does a program, they worked for me and I have lost up to 45lbs as of today, about 4 months.

Thanks for the encouragement.  How often do you take the b-12 w/lipo shots? How much weight have you loss? Has the weight loss been a combination of the shots, revised eating habits and exercise?  I don't hear a lot of people talking about exercise.  I got a b-12 w/lipo shot but I quite honestly can say that I do not have any additional energy.  I took it on wednesday of this past week.  May be I need to take them more often then just once a week.  I have gone to that website you suggested and will order them from there as they are definitely cheaper.  I paid for 4 ($100) until I could place an order from your favorite site.

do your shots come already blended or do you have to mix the b12 and lipotropics. can you just buy the lipotrics by itself.

by mtglady, Aug 22, 2006 12:00AM
I have just begun the injections 2 weeks ago and am losing but since my last injection on my left side I have had pain in my back and down my left arm.  I hope it is not from this but has anyone else had anything like this??

If you find out how to purchase the lipotropics seperately please email me at ***@****

What do you eat to keep yourself at 1000 to 1200 calories a day? I try to count my calories but i'm having a really hard time trying to figure out what to eat.

MTGLADY...

My arms feel funny after my injections as well.
My wrist joints get a little hot and my hands ache.
If you have, or have a history of, arthritis in your family that is probably the reason.

It's an acute inflammatory reaction, but for me, goes away after the first day.

If you're experiencing something different or more severe...talk to your doctor!!

Hi I'm taking
Everyday:
phentermine37.5mg
thyroid 120mg

Once a Week(last 2 weeks only):
Lipotropix shot

Once a Month(at doc appt):
1-amp shot

I've dropped from 347(Jan 19, 2007) to 295 (currently)...however over the last 2 weeks I've been suffering from extreme fatigue, example: I'll come home from work and do a few things on the computer and I feel extremely tired and I have to go to sleep.  I'm not even able to stay up to watch a movie with my daughter due to the extreme fatigue.   I ask the doc if the lipotropix could cause this and she said no that their just amino acids and supplements.  They do work, I've lost 10 pounds since starting them 2 weeks ago.   I was at a plateau is the reason I started the injections.   I was wondering if anyone else has had the same side effects.   thanks,

i just started a program of Lipotropic shots w/phentermine 37.5 mlg.  i only want to lose 20 to 25 pounds but like many of you, just can not seem to get it off no matter what i do .... i have a very busy life, 2 jobs, a daugther still @ home, a dad that i go see daily in a nursing home and eating at a decent hour is impossible.  i try to eat healthy and have started riding my bike 4 miles in the a.m. & walking an additional 2 miles in the p.m. and i am now drinking at least 64 oz. of water daily, if not more.  b/f deciding to do this weight loss program as a last ditch effort to get this weight off, i spent endless hours on various websites reading forums/reviews, etc.  i have read very little negative comments so i decided "what the heck" .... yesterday i weighed 160#'s, this a.m. i weighed 158.2#'s .... not sure what happened during the course of yesterday but if comes off like that, i am sure to be "thin" w/in a month!! (lol)

Hey! i am starting the b12/ lipo tropic shots in 1 week. and they also give me a rx of phentermine. and also like you i only need to lose 25 lbs. I will be doing two shots per week. How much are they putting in your shots, and are you also getting the b12 shot with the lipotropics?

You're on the right track! I tried every diet there is and this one is the only that has worked for me. I only take 1/2 phentermine tab daily along with the shots 2x weekly and after 3 weeks I've lost 15 lbs. I can only say good things for this diet and I figured if my M.D is giving this to me,  it can't kill me. LOL Good luck and keep me informed how it's going!

where do you purchase the b12 shot / lip for a cheaper price

by theanonymous1, Sep 13, 2007 04:41PM
To: dragonlady420
You can find the shots at a reasonable price at www.mydietsolutions.com

by T&AandMuchMore, Sep 17, 2007 02:00PM
Hey, that is who I go to also!!! I love them!!!


Mydietsolitions.com is owed by a Dr who has 6 real clinics in GA, but he also happens to have a website where you can be one of his patients online. It is the same Medicine, but you don't have to travel to a DR office and you have the same support as if you were going to a Drs office. The nurses are always available by phone and there is a fourm that includes employees that answer questions and advice. DR Gates also goes to the forum to answer questions. I would advise anyone trying B12 just to go to the website and learn more about B12 and how it works. The website is free and the advice is free.

You might try doing a google search for b12 lipotropics, mydietsolutions, b12 with lipotropics, or b6, b12 lipotropics.  There's a lot of good information out there!

i just started the liptropic shots last week.  my sister takes them also but goes to a different doctor.  she is getting the lipotropic shot and the b-12 each week.  my doctor did not offer this.  any words of wisdom on this?

by revins, Mar 03, 2008 07:57PM
To: desperatetolose
So are you just getting the Lipotropics by itself???  Usually it's mixed with the B12... if it's a pink colored injection, then B12 is most likely in there.. he may just not mention it.
The B12 Lipotropics for weightloss is a great combination together.  I say, if your sister gets hers together at her doctor, why not go to her doctor?  You'll love the energy the B12 gives you.

I have done alot of research on the shot and it seems that this is what I need to get me out of my rut. need some advice.. I guess on what to expect. I know everyones different, but doesn't it make you jittery? is it very addictive?

Yeah!  This is huge for me.  I have been stuck forever.

Well good-luck!

i just ordered the injections last night, so i will post back later to share my results.  i purchased the shots from a site i've seen recommended: www. healinglightholisticcenter.com/products/b12.htm

i've never taken these shots before or injected myself, so i watched the "how to" video at www. mydietsolutions.com first - it was really good!  i would have ordered from diet solutions, but they were a lot more expensive than the site above.  this place is a holistic center with an actual address for patients and such - so i think the product will be just as good.  i'll post back with my results later on.

I have been on the b12 lipotropics for 2 weeks have not lost any weight and my hunger and cravings have increased...has anyone else experienced this?  Please help! I have 100 pounds to lose and cannot afford to gain more.

by Chi_Chi_Lover, Jun 02, 2008 07:59AM
Yes, these shots make me hungry and crave. I think I'm going to stop them before I undo any of the hard work I have done. My family doctor said that Vitamin B increases your appetite. He has put my son on Multi Vitamins B to increase his appetite. I about passed out when he said that my son is going to make our grocery bill double. Now I know why I'm so hungy. This may be a scam to keep you coming to these weigh loss doctors.

You can find the b12/lipo at healinglightholisticcenter ******* for a lot less than mydietsolutions - I have lost 28 lbs on the shots (twice a week) and a supplement they give me at the clinic by the name of Miracle Burn.  I have about 10 lbs to go and I will be at the weight I was in college!!!!!!

I have been taking the lipotropic injections for about 2 years now. I don't think they 'actually' aid in helping one loose weight. The lipotropic injections are suppose to flush the fat from your system or fight the fat. Over the 2 year period, I've lost between 15 & 20 pounds. I have taken ionomine (generic version of a diet pill), bontril, and phentermine, not all at the same time of course! My weight did get down to 134, after weighing 155 (I am 5'2, tooo much weight for my short body!) Now I am at 141. I have backed off from the injections and have stopped taking diet pills. I do plan on starting back on the diet pills soon. I will probably use Adipex this time. Good luck to you all who want to loose weight.

To: lis13
You can exercise while taking the B12 with Lipotropics for weightloss, in fact it's highly recommended.  It's an awesome tool to help with fat breakdown and flushing the system.  I had looked at HCG at one point and didn't feel comfortable, then after seeing the video blogs on mydietsolutions website, now I know why.  I'm so glad I went the B12 Lipotropics route instead!
Good luck to you.

Once you reach your ultimate for weight lost do you have to continue to take the B-12 shot to keep the weight from returning or is this a permenant solution.

Be extremely careful with these injections.  They are not as safe as they are touted to be.  My fiancee and I had been on the Phentermine/Lipotropic injection program for weight loss for 6 weeks.  My fiancee suddenly started experiencing severe pain in his right side.  He went his regular physician and to a urology specialist who then told him he had complete right kidney failure.  After a battery of tests, it was determined that his right kidney "died" due to the effects of the Lipotropic injections.  I would not encourage anyone taking these shots, as there are side effects that the money hungry weight loss doctors most definitely do not tell you about when you sign up for the program.

I started taking the B12/lipo combo shots 2 weeks ago, 2x/wk, along with a 1200 calorie/day diet, 64 oz. of water per day and daily exercise of at least 30 min. in hopes of losing 25 -30 lbs over the next 3 months.  After my first week, I lost 2 lbs but didn't lose any on my next weigh-in that week.  The nurse said it was because I was on my period and that could make a difference of up to 7 lbs.  Has anyone else been told that?  I was hoping for better results, especially since I've been hitting the exercise side of it pretty hard every day.  Sticking to the diet is a lot harder than I thought, and I think that cutting down on my carb intake is decreasing my energy.  I thought the B12 was supposed to offset that, but it doesn't seem to be.  Any suggestions????

Anyone thinking of ordering their Lipo B injections from Tony M. Lamoureux, really should reconsider. This man and his partner, AJ, don't know **** about customer service. Aside from the fact that AJ never has ANY answers to ANYTHING and Tony, the owner, has a bit of an anger problem. I ordered our second shipment of lipo from them last Thursday. Today is Wednesday. I called Friday for confirmation. I was told that it would ship Friday. We expected it to be in Monday or Tuesday. Unfortunately we were running low as I talked some patients into it. Now, a week later, still no shipment. Yesterday I called for a tracking # (which they do not provide). AJ had no answers about the progress of my order (as usual). I gave my cell # expecting to receive a call about the status. Never received a call. 24 hours later, Tony and I played phone tag. Every time I called, he would ignore my call, sending me to voicemail after a couple of rings. Becuase I was getting aggrivated, I called about 8 times until he finally answered. I did not yell or curse at him (3 other employees were standing around me). He threatened to close my account and then cussed me out saying (and I quote) "**** you! I'm getting sick of your ******* attitude! **** you, you ******* *******!" Needless to say, I will not be ordering from this very unprofessional "company". We will be switching to another company as of tomorrow morning. Thank you, Tony, for driving me to make a change; dropping you as one of our suppliers! BTW, don't use your product, do you?
