phentermine, b12 injections, and water pills

[blctmc2003]

I was seen at a weight loss clinic in houston, tx when visiting my sister there.  she lost approx. 40 pnds while doing the combination of phentermine 37.5 mg, b12 injections, and triamterene (water pills.  I live in kentucky and can not find a place to get the B12 injection.  I called the clinic to see if I could get a RX and they dont do that you have to get them at their clinic.  If anyone has any suggestions about this program or the injections please let me know. The clinic gives you 2 monthes of pills and your supposed to go in and get weekly injections.  After your two monthes you wait 3 weeks then go back to start the the two month program again.  I can be emailed at the same name at yahoo.com.  Thanks!!!

[Iwant2bMaxine]

Have you spoken to your regular physician? They may be able to work in conjunction with the physician in Tx if they think it is a good idea.
My mom gets B-12 injections b/c she has had GBP surgery and it makes it harder for her body to absorb the b-12 vitamin pills.

Good luck! I hope it works out for you.  Have you tried a google search?

[DADD]

I am currently on phentermine and a special fat burning injection formula that includes B12. to tell you the truth, this doctor who i found is a specialist in weight management, and he offers this special formulated fat burning shot. that turns out to be cheaper that when i used to order b12 alone. Way more affective too. he is in los angeles though. anyway, i had bad luck with buying them online and it was more expensive. Now I am assured that he will take care of me.

[blctmc2003]

I have lost 14 pounds since the 11/18.  I had the B12 injection at my initial appt but haven't had it since.  Thanks for everyones advice.  I looked into getting the B12 Injections online but I don't know how much to get in each dose.

CONGRATS ON THE WEIGHT LOSE YOU GO GURL........:)
I JUST STARTED 12/7/2005 I HOPE TO LOSE 40 POUNDS

[coolTEXASgirl]

Hi, ive been looking for a doctor in Houston that offers these B12 injections but have had no luck.  My mom used to take these many years ago.  I went back yesterday to that location hoping it would still be there but of course it wasnt.  Can you please give me a phone number to the doctor or clinic your sister goes to.  It would be greatly appreciated.

[DADD]

what are the other costs associated with that? does a doctor see you?

[chubbs27]

ok im super new to this and i've got friends in multiple states and cities who are taking the b12. Is it still effective to take it alone or do you have to take pills with it too? How much of it are you supposed to inject and how often?? once a month, every two weeks- I read and hear different things so a little feedback would be great- thanks! oh and drs in tucson would be helpful too

[fatanddisgusted]

i started b12 on janurary 8 and on that date my weight was 354 i went back on today jan 16 and i weighed 339. i lost 15 pds in one week on b12 injections and a strict diet.
b 12 works

[CATHYZOM]

Hi and congratulations on you weight loss.  I was wondering which dr. do you go to. what state and what is your strick diet made of.  what kind of food and how much do you eat.  what type of excercise do you do.  today i got my 3rd b12 shot through my dr. in LA, but i have gained almost a pound from the first day of my shot 1-2-06.  he was also very suprised not to see any loss so we have to try to see what happens by next week .  thank you for your help.

[fatanddisgusted]

Well for breakfast i have 1 piece of fruit (banana, apple, etc) no starches, no sugar, a lean cusine for lunch and a salad and 1 meat for dinner. Plus I walk everyday for at least 30 min. I'm also on some appetite suppresents named adipex. I'm in Georgia and the doctor that I go to in Dr. JT Cooper. He has a website. When I find out what it is I will be sure to let you know. I know one girl that sees him and lost 75 pds in 4 months. He really helps.
Good luck girl

[honey11]

Nice,,,,what kind of dr is it at this clinic?  And do you have to be of a certain weight for the shot or need B-12 for another reason to get.  I just now have been reading about it and don't know enough about it such as,,,,after losing weight,,,and you stop does the weight come back or stay off?

[NiceLatinMuneca]

Your BMI definitely has to be over, and the shot is not just b-12 it also has amp/b6/b12/ which is a lipotropic mixture to help burn fat easily, plus gives energy.  Your weight should not come back cause you are suppose to do your "thing" such as walking for 30 minutes or whatever causes you to be active for at least 30 min to 1 hour. This is going to help you get those typical results we all read about.  YES it will help,  but you have to do your part.  I think that if you really want this to work for you, you will make it work!  I remember one person in the clinic looking at me and said to me "ONE hour on the treadmill for 2 months and you be a size 6.  That one comment stuck to me and guess what I did just that. Like a Challenge, if nothing else that person believed that I could look like that.  In all what I am trying to say is that it will stay off, by the time you get to your weight goal you would have adopted some new ways to prevent the weight, so it will be a learning process.  I know you CAN DO IT! So start thinking thin.  Do it for your health, you must LOVE yourself.

[honey11]

Ok,,,just called my drs office and asked if they did B12 injections and they said yes,,,just make an appointment.  But now I'm realizing,,,its more then just B12,  You are saying B12 plus B6.  I'm trying to lose about 10 lbs and have been watching what I eat and exercising but is slow going and I'm sure alot is my age with metabolism slowing down.

[busymom36]

I can't tell you how great it was to read the conversations in this forum. I had heard about a regimen using B12 and appetite suppressants, but wasn't sure of the specifics. After findng the information here, I started the shots and pills on January 2nd and so far have lost 15 pounds. I have more enrgy and little to no hunger at all. This is great for those who have trouble getting started and getting the weight to come off. I give myself the shots either in the butt or thigh - either will work. It's a little weird at first, but with the weight you're losing you get over it!

[honey11]

Busy,,,where did you get your shots and pills?  Is it a b12 shot and then the pill is some form of diet pill.  Congratulations on the weight loss,,,That is amazing!

[NiceLatinMuneca]

Well if you really want your metabolism to be faster those AMP/B12 shots will do the trick. "PLEASE remember it is not just B12!".  And as for the supressants they do work and you do not realize how much food we really do eat.  We are suppose to eat portions equal to the palm of our hands.  "Unless of course WE,you,us have HUGE GORILLA HANDS! hahaha!  But seriously take the whole program.  The doctor's information is on my first comment under my name. So far so good I am barely on my first week, but I will not reaveal how much I have lost yet cause I want to wait the full month.  I will say giving my self the first shot was kind of weird cause once I stuck my self on my arm I had a hard time squeezing the plunger so I got my roommate to do it for me.  She is squemish but she did it anyway cause she knows how much this means to me to have these shots, and guess what she did great! cause you have to squeeze slowly.  I held the needle and she pushed the plunger! "That was so funny!  but every time we go somewhere to eat or if I am eating at home I find my self leaving most of my food. and YES I am doing my part such as walking for at least 30 to 1 hour.  I feel great.  I truly encourage all of you to follow your directions to the tee.  Drinks lots of water! I will write back to give more feedback. "Remember" LOVE yourself and just DO IT!  I know you can!

[bekkayoumans]

Can you give me the Doctors name in Houston I have been looking for one but have not found a weight doctor thanks

[NiceLatinMuneca]

By the way this doctor is at this location: Internet Medical Clinic 7447 Harwin Dr. Ste 100, Houston,Texas 77036. Telephone is 713 541-6988, fax is 713 541-6982.

[swollen belly]

i heard about this at hair salon in newport news  va, a person in the military was told she needed to loose weight and was going to a clinic, they said she lost a lot of weight and looked great.

does anyone out there know the name of the clinic in the hampton rds area of va?

[mshaze05]

The place in Hampton Roads area is South Hampton Women Health Services.. I hope this helps.

[kathyde75]

My cousin and I started this program in AZ and have been on it for about a month and a half. Both of us have lost about 14 lb. so far. We take the phentermine and B-12 shots and we are also going to start the chromate (appetite suppressant). We both noticed that after a while the effectiveness of the phentermine starts to diminish. We feel more hungry than we did before. Does anyone know if you need to take a "break" from the meds for a few days so your body doesn't get too "used to" the meds? So far we are happy with our results, but it ain't cheap. We pay about $300 a month for shots, meds, and consultations.

[swissyb124]

i trying to find something that I can use after having thyroid treatment.

[big beautiful diva]

I just made and appointment for weight loss in the Houston clinic. I need to lose roughly 15 - 20 lbs. Does this really work???? I am nervous but eager to try it out.

[Houston_Delight02]

Yes, This really works. I have been on for a month so far and have lost 18lbs. At first I didn't work out much like they say to but started to change my eating habits and it slowly started to drop off. I picked up walking and drinking lots of water. I think if your really motivated to loose the weight this is a great boost to get you going. Good Luck and please let us know how your doing along the way....

[thuck]

Does anyone know if theres a clinic in alaska soldotna for the shots and pills?

[Janet Yeo]

B12 and B6 are vitamins B12 and B6 is it?

If i take VB12 and 6, does it has the same effect as taking the jabs?

[divine81]

i once has the treatment done in ny but the doctor moved and i lost track of him i am very interested in this treatment so if anyone knows a clinic in massachusetts,ny or near that area or a place online where i can buy the treatment any information i will be very thankful.

[big beautiful diva]

thanks for the response. i have started takin the pills..butit supresses my appeptite to the point that I don't eat at all. I acually had to force myself to eat something in order to take the pill. In one week, I dropped six pounds.

How much water should I be drinking. That too has become a task. Even with my mouth feling dry, I will pass up the H2O.

Also, should I go back weekly or every two weeks for the B12 shot?

[big beautiful diva]

I started a week ago and i have to force myself to eat just to take th pill. I am only taking half a water pill every other day because I am finding it difficult to drink lots of water because I have no appetite. I have dropped six pounds in one week. Is that okay???
Also how often should I take the B12 injection.

[poisin]

Has anyone had side effects like fast heart beating ,dry mouth headache,lack of sleep and feeling real depressed and angry???I do and I've only been on the pill and shot for 1 week.

[big beautiful diva]

Personally, the treatment makes me very tempermental. My patience is very short and tolerance level low. My coworkers noticed the mood swings and mean spirit before I realized it. but right now, they just gotta deal with....I'm on a mission!!!

[poisin]

Well you guys made me laugh today thanks ladies !!!

[brown sugar]

I just started taking the phen pills like a week ago and they seemed to be working for me , i was wondering if anyone had a site i can order them from that is legit ......

[fattie]

I have epilepsy, could I go on this too? I was taking effexor and gained 60 lbs and am trying to find a way to loose this weight. Sounds like everyone here is having luck with loosing weight on this b12. Do B12 pills work the same?

[big beautiful diva]

Hey girlzzzz,

I have been on the meds for approx. 2 1/2 weeks and I have dropped 17 lbs!!!!!! I went back and took the B12 shot again after two weeks and I didn't sleepp for three days. So you already know I will not be going back for the injection. I need my rest. But...it is working!!!!!!!!!! My mood swings may be getting worse but....who cares....the weight is dropping.

[determined mel]

You obviously r very successful and i love your postitive attitude. I just learned about this new method and im interested in trying it.  I live in metro detroit, mi if you have any information on how i can find clinics here, or anything whatsover please let me know bc im in very desperate need of this.  Thank u very much and good luck, keep up the great work.

[choice01]

I jus recently moved to the Arlington, VA near the D.C. area...I am desperatly in search of a medical weight loss clinic that carries the brand Adipex...Can anyone help? I used Adipex several months ago and it totally worked but I got them in La. now I am out and need to get a new supply....This stuff seems as if it jus burns the fat away...

[panajee]

You said a mouth full.  I was concerned about the mood swings.  I already have them but have been able to keep them in check.  My fear is when i start the meds, will i be able to hide syble(multi personality).  I don't want to loose my job, but I guess when i'm super sexy i may hit the jack pot and not have to work at all.  I'm on a mission too girl.  Thanks for sharing your response.

[newlife2007]

Hi-I am trying to jump start my weight loss, but I need to know if anyone knows of a doc in Hampton Roads, VA (Virginia Beach, Hampton, Newport News, etc.).  Hay, I'll even drive to Richmond.  I used phentermine a couple of years ago, but lost my motivation when I was told that I was losing my shape.  (Stupid me.)  The extra weight has helped me come to terms with the fact that my health is most important...not a big ole booty and hips. Anywhooo, if you know of any docs around VA please let me know.  Also, is Adipex like phentermine?   Thanks for your help.

[Conroechick]

I have a Question about taking the shots. See I ve had a c-sec and i have that extra skin hanging and i needed to know if i got the shot will it go away?

[iebrutus]

Adipex is phentermine 37.5 mg. You can find all the information you want about it at www.phentermine.com . I just started taking it and I did a lot of research about it online prior to getting my prescription. I just went my family doctor and explained my situation and she suggested it to me; I didn't even have to ask for it. I, too, was getting a little too comfortable with my thickness but I want to be healthy and feel good about myself and I'm ready to make that commitment. As suggested on this site, I plan to diet, exercise, take Adipex, B12 injections, chromate & water pills. I'll let you know how it works out.

[2cute4u]

Hello Everyone

This is my first time on here... but I went to Dr. Gupta in greenbelt on july 26 and they gave me the shot and the pills and also a diet plan...The food that is on the diet I dont like nor do I drink milk... So what I do is eat lots of salads and fruit and bake fish and salmon...also since I dont drink milk I buy smoothies that are blend with real fruit and no sugar added...Well today is aug 16 and I go weigh in today so I have No Idea how much I weigh... But wish me luck...

[Anne77]

Well can anyone who are already on the B12 injection, can tell me how much weight could you lose after the first month ?

[beckzet]

I found a clinic that used the B12/Phentermine/Diuretic plan for weight loss.  I have only been on it for 1 week and have lost 12 lbs.  It was $ 80 for the first consultation and I received a B12 shot at the clinic and 2 prescriptions to take to a pharmacy for the phentermine and diuretic.  A 14 day supply only cost $ 14 at the pharmacy.  I will go back every 2 weeks for another injection and another refill on each prescription, so that will be $ 25 every 2 weeks plus the $14 for the prescriptions.  Also, you are on a 1200 calorie per day diet that is similar to a diabetic diet.  But you aren't hungry at all, so it is no problem to stick to it!

Hope this helps someone.  So far so good over here!

[no no no]

Does anyone know of a Doctor in Northern Virginia that gives the B12 shot??

[ncloss]

has anyone heard of dr.John Bergeron in houston,tx?

[brsam87]

Hi how are u...I saw your posting and was curious what clinic you went to and the name of the doctor...

[YahYahx2]

There is a facility in Newport News Virginia at 11747 suite 2D  Jefferson Ave. The phone number is 757-599-5147  The name is Southhampton  Health Services, Inc. It's 175.00 to start and 25 a week for the shots.  

[darkthick&sexy]

Did you find the clinic and is it working for you. I several clinics in the Hampton Roads area?

[ksthoma6]

that is a very reasonable price, can you tell me the name and phone number of the dr you saw in houston,tx

[weighlosser]

Does anyone know where I can buy Phentermine without prescription? If so please give info or email to ***@****

[LosingItinHouston]

I went to another weight loss clinic in Houston that has the same program as the Internet Medical Clinic and the reason I decide to go there instead was the price was lower and and it was an actual family practice clinic with complete examination, complete bloodwork, EKG, Lipo BC injection with Vitamin b complex and B-12 shot. Also 2 month supply of adipex and water pills. Been on the program 2 full days and have dropped 6 pounds. I know it is probably only water weight but just seeing the scale move after bouncing between 235-239lb for so long, it has motivated me to go to the gym and eat better to give this a try. I feel great on the medicine. The first day I was a little high strung on the adipex and using the bathroom alot because of the water pill but I want result and I am happy cause I think this will really work.

Cost $110 for program including shots and pills and nutritional counseling.
Repeat visits every 2 months are $85

[Tillyg]

Does anyone know of a similar clinic/dr in the Austin, Tx area.  I am very anxious to get started and would like to see a dr who will be agressive  about weight loss...I don't want a dietician, I need the whole package to jump start a 65-70lb weight loss.  I understand that I will need to go to the gym and eat right, but I would like to see someone willing to provide additional meds/shot to boost the loss.

[CLAUDIAEIBARRA]

i have been on the  b-12 and phen , and water pills for about 1month and have lost  about 15lbs, is ths a reasonable  weigh loss? i don't take the shot every week,i only take like twice a month, does that make a diffrence.

[Gashanta]

The closest thing to Austin Tx is Dr. Pimple which is in Waco, Tx he is very good and also has a office in Dallas. But I never found a location in Austin.

[sugarbunny]

Do you happen to have a phone #  or address for this Dr.Pimple? I am currently trying to find a weight loss Dr in the Dallas, TX area but can't seem to find one.

[curlygirl1]

Would you give me the name of the doctor you went to and the contact info? Thanks.

[sugarbunny]

Dr. Otto Puempel at drweightcontrol.com. He has offices in Arlington, Dallas and Waco Texas

[Sy_mcgee]

Has anyone else noticed that the effect of the adipex wears off after a few days and u get really hungry...does this mean that my matabolism has begun to speed up?

[RESQ2U]

I DO THE PHEN B12 WATERPILL,  SOME WEEKS I SKIP THE PILL FOR A DAY SOMETIMES 2 CAUSE I NOTICED THE SAME THING AND AFTER I MISS 2 DAYS WHEN I TAKE IT AGAIN IT DOES BETTER SEEMS STRONGER PLUS IT HELPS ME CATCH UP ON  AND SLEEP BETTER .

[weight-be-gone]

Does anyone have the contact info on the Houston family practice clinic with complete examination, complete bloodwork, EKG, Lipo BC injection with Vitamin b complex and B-12 shot, etc. that
LosingItinHouston mentioned. I've lost 25lbs on my own but need to do something different. Down from 210 to 185 --- but need to be somewhere in the area of 135. Anyway... think I would like to go to a family doc in stead of Internet Medical Clinicl

[bellkiss]

Hi everyone, after reading all your comments about B12 injections.  I went out looking for a clinic.  to my suprise I was unable to find one that gave B12 injections.  I mentioned this to my pharmasist who stated that he sells these over the counter.  

They are called Neo B12 injections 1,000mg they come in a pack of 3 for about Aud $14.00.  Thats around Au $5.00 per shot, not bad.

I went to a Dr to have them injected, however he told me that he would need to first do a blood test to see if I was B12 dificient, otherwise he would not be able to give them to me as having high levels of B12 could be harmfull.

I left feeling disapointed,  I would just have to purchase the syringe and inject them myself.  However before I do this I would like to know, if the B12 injections are the same ones that are used over in the states.  and if anyone know if it has any side effects for overdosing on the B12 vitamin.

Desperate as I too need to loose some weight, I have 4 weeks before a big party and would like to loose some weight before then.  

Thanks.

[bellkiss]

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am from Australia, So if anyone from down under that has purchased these same B12 injections, love to hear from you as I need to know if they are the right ones to inject.  or anyone else that can give me some info.

thanks

[LAM2007]

Can someone help me. I live in Woodbridge VA and I need a doctor that is in the DC Metro area that writes prescriptions for Phentermine 37.5. I have taken them before and they work really good for me. I just had a baby and really need to loose weight.HELP

[sheree7897]

I am looking for a diet clinic in Beaumont Tx. that is like the Internet Medical linic in houston.

[djepalmer]

I been on this "cocktail" for 3 days and have alread lost 8 lbs. It may all be water weight but who cares! Wish me luck.

[presunn]

what "cocktail" are you refering to djeplamer?  what does it all consists of?  congrats by the way -- 8lbs in 3 dys is awwesome.

intersted in losing weight.  can someone point me in the direction of finding a doctor in orlando, fl.  is there a difference between hcg and b-12?  which is better?

[joangel]

Its day 4 for me and after reading some of your comments here, i wonder if any of u feel a burning sensation (like hunger!) after 2 hours of taking the pill? I take 1/2 a pill with breakfast everyday and am on a low carb diet. I exercise 1 hour a day. Should i be eating more?

[bride2b607]

is phentermine and adipex the same thing? I also wanted to know am I the only one taking phentermine without the b-12. Do you think the b-12 shots really help your weight loss or do they just give you energy?

[Rink4mama]

I am looking for a diet Dr. in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.  Does anyone know of one?

[Carny]

I could really use a doctor in Los Angeles that uses the Phentermine/B12/water if anyone knows one!

[skinny34]

Hey gang, I live in Harker Heights and was wondering if anyone was able to get an appt. with either of the Dr.'s listed by Tillyg in the Austin, Waco or Round Rock area?  I am weening my 3 month old from the breast and am ready to get after it...5'4/201 lbs is so not cute, even when you are adorned with the cutest baby in Town!!! :)

I love this site, my late night surfing finally paid off...good luck to all!!

[skinny34]

Yes they are the same pill even look the same...phentermine is the generic version of adipex.  I have taken both and there is absolutely no difference.  

[skinny34]

Just want to report that I went to the Georgetown clinic today suggested by Tillyg (THANK YOU)!!  It is called Physicians Center, PA @ 3721 Williams Dr. and it is an awesome deal if you have insurance.  Basically for the cost of your co-pay you go in get your 37.5 prescription, a B-12 shot and meal suggestions for 1000 - 2000 calorie a day diet.  Between monthly visits to do a weigh in, refill and B-12 shot you can choose to be a walk-in every 2wks for an additional shot for the cost of your co-pay.  They don't give the "cocktail" mixture but she suggested taking a B-complex to enhance the B-12.  I purchased-Natures Bounty, Liquid Bcomplex w/B12- at Walgreens.  So I will keep you guys posted on my progess!  

[nycdiva]

La Mirada Weight Loss Clinic. http://www.lmmedicalweightcontrol.com/home.nxg

The clinic is in Whittier, CA about 20 - 25 miles southeast of Los Angeles, CA.

They offer the phentermine, chromemate, diucaps and water pill combination with the b12 shot.  I pay approx. $30/week for a week's worth of pills and the one shot.

They also have massages that stimulates fat and helps you lose weight faster.  
They are open Monday - Saturday and for new patients they are open Monday - Friday until 4:30PM.

I've lost about 5lbs so far in 3 weeks.  Not too many lbs because I'm exercising and building lean muscle and the best thing is my clothes feel great on me. I'm drinking lots of water and eating waaaaaaay better!

[newconfidence]

I have come to this site on several occasions, and started the "diet shot" and adipex addition to working out and eating right in late October/early November.  To date I have lost 31+ pounds, and am feeling very excited about my progress.  I have quite a bit more to lose before I am at a healthy BMI, however I have noticed over the past couple of weeks that my weightloss has been rather stagnant.  Could the addition of a "water pill" help with this issue?  I am a little frustrated and have been told by my trainer that I shouldnt plateau for another 20 pounds...any thoughts?

Hello, I am in Northern Virginia and am going next saturday (7 days from now) for my first Dr. Visit and my first shot. I am going to be doing B12 weekly along with an appetite suppresant. I will also be doing the B6 shot bi-weekly. I currently weight 174lbs and I have a goal of 135lbs (By April 3rd/16 weeks on program/2.44 lbs a week on average will be lost). I was on a similiar program before in Hampton Roads, VA about 2 years ago and it worked.  I lost 27 lbs in 4 months with absolutly no effort! I have gained back or I should say that I have not lost 19 lbs of my pregnancy weight. I had a baby 15 months ago and thats how I gained the weight back. When I lost the weight in 2005 I kept it off all the way up to the point when I got pregnant which was 6 months. This program really does work when you stick to it. This time I am trying a different approach and I am going to work out in addition to the program. I figured if I can loose 27lbs in 4 months with no exercise and eating what I want then surly I can loose 39lbs in 3 months with smarter eating and exercising 5 days a week. Good luck to everyone!!! It's a New Year Baby and a new time for Us Women!!!

Not sure of other clinics in Hampton Roads Virginia, but there is this one.  Tidewater Weightloss Center  2468 E. Little Creek Rd. Norfolk, Va.  Phone 757-480-LOSE (5673).  
I've been going there since Oct. 10, 2007 and have lost 37 lbs.  I'm so happy with it.  The staff is really nice.  I get the B12 shots weekly and take 1 Phentermine "tablet" daily in the morning before eating.  I also walk 20 to 30 minutes every day (mornings)   I do eat lots of tuna and steamed chicken breast and lots of veggies and water.  It's really working.  I can deal with a "bland" diet if it works.  I want to lose another 35 lbs. so I'm pressing onward.  Good luck.

I have been on adipex  37.5 alone since May. 07. i weighed 287, and now I have lost 60 lbs. I eat smaller portions and try to stay more active. I drink only water and lots of it. i still eat out,  but not buffet! I just dont sit on the couch and watch tv. I do more things for myself, i don't send the kids after things, etc. I try to go walking on weekends like  moderate to easy hike or walk. uneven surfaces make it easy for your body to learn your habit  and is still effective excercise, and this keeps me from getting into a rutt. i do not have scales at home, but i go by a realtives or DR's office and weigh about every two weeks, and i have amonthly appt at Doctor's office. i have never not lost weight at my appt. i mostly lose 1-2 lbs per week. gradually, i eat less and have changed my habits completely. i have no other person that is doing this with me, but my husband tries to go along with me and do things that will make it easy for me to get excercise. He doesn'tt need to lose weight, he's 6' 3" and 160lbs all the time.lol we live in mountains of nc and sometimes we go walking or hiking to a waterfall. Its nice. i do not walk everyday, just on weeknds, and when I cant leave the house, like bad weather, i clean closets out, or strenuous housework. i also make differnt things for dinner, I used to cook Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes almost every night. now we eat a lot of Tacos, flat bread sandwhiches, and pita bread sandwhiches and wraps or lean meat and fish.lol.We absoloutely do not drink soda at my house anymore. I am sure I could lose more quicker if I ate differnt things, but so ar so good, and its something we can all live with.and 3 years ago my blood sugar was high and borderline diabetic, like 2 hunded something, now its 85. hope some of these things help. Keep up the good work!!!!!!

Hi, I started phentermine 37.5mg in August 2007 and have lost 65 lbs. It has been a hard struggle but between cutting portions and exercising at least 4-5 days a week it has been an awesome success. When I was pregnant with my first child, I gained 70lbs. Its was a nightmare to weigh 124lbs and weigh 194lbs. I had so many complications I was on bed rest and didnt take care of myself at all. The it seemed to be an uphill battle when two years later I found out I was pregnant again. I only gained 15lbs with the 2nd, but never lost that or the original weight I gained. Then two years later, I was pregnant with my 3rd. Here comes 13 more lbs. After my third, I did manage to lose a few lbs throughout the next year. My year pap test came up and I weighed 217. I asked my dr. could I please try the phentermine, because a friend of mine had such wonderful success. The first month, I dropped about 25lbs, the second was around 20lbs. Then the third it slowed a lot and took about a month to drop 10lbs. The fourth I lost 10 more. I would hit plateus though cause I was only eating less and walking. I would walk alternating 3 miles a couple of days, then boost up to 5 miles two days. The days we walked 3 mi. I did small sprints to add a variety. My body must have become used to that workout so I had decided to take aerobics classes at a gym and alternate, yoga/pilates with a weight lifting workout and a dance workout. It is awesome, and you will see a big difference taking phentermine and a good workout plan and better eating habits! Good luck to all of you!!!!

Come on did you really lose 15lbs in a week. I don't believe it. That is way too over the top. If you did, what were you eating, raw lettuce for three meals a day.

Hey ma, that is good you lost 6lbs in a week, but guess what if you had eaten at least 1200 calories, you still would have lost 6 and more. Don't starve yourself, that's what brings on the health problems, just eat in moderation chick.

2nd weight in yeasterday (Sat. 01/26/08) and I lost another 4 lbs. All together I have lost 15.6 lbs in my first 2 weeks. I am very happy with this result because to loose 15.6 lbs in the most stressful two weeks of my life is pretty amazing. (Finding out that the person you love, have been with for over 3 years, live together and have a baby together has been cheating on you is pretty hard to stay focused), but I did it! I have been battling for the past 9 days on what to do which has really effected my by not being able to work out or eat right. Anyways enough excusses I am still happy about my progress! Good luck everybody and just remember that if I can do it with what I have been going through (and I'm the type of person to eat when I am stressed) then anybody can do it!

Hello I am from Houston and I tried this pills and they worked great about 3 years ago. If I remember I lost about 15 pounds the first week, i tried taking them again after my last baby which was 11/05 but they only worked for the first 2-3 weeks, did my body maybe get used to the pill and this is why I stopped working? I am going again tomarro 01/30/08 and I will keep a post as well ( by 39lbs_to_go_and_counting) I thought that was a great idea. I am sorry that you are going through tough times but their will be better days ... Good luck to all and wish me luck!!

SoldOnLeza

[bigwinn]

I don't think the b-12 injection are doing anything, unless the doctor gave me a low dose shot. But he said it was 1000mg and should last a month. That was a week ago,what happened?

[SoldOnLeza]

The B12 are only to boost your metabolism I went to to the clinic today and I was with the understanding that B12 would make you loose weight or had fat burner, so I asked and they said it is a Metabolism Booster and gives your energy ... My clinic now has Lipo B which is the fat burner, supose to burn 30% of your body fat, and it is also good for liver cleanse.... This is the first time I take it and I will continue to go back weekly for a better result... Are you in Houston area by the way? Oh and it's only 10.00 for the B12 and 10.00 for the Lipo-B... Not bad

Where can a friend of mine in SanAntonio go for the b-12,phentermine,and the water pills.


Tell her to call 210-979-7999 IMC Internet Medical Clinic

[theshoejunkie]

I see that a lot of people ask for somewhere to go in Dallas but I havent seen anything yet. Can someone tell me where to go other than the Latino Clinic? And does the difference in the amount of B12 in the shot matter?

Thanks a bunch.

PS. Im 25. 154.6 lbs as of yesterday. Had a baby in June. Only gained 15 lbs with him, lost all of it plus three pounds, that got me down to 143. As you can see, I have put on some weight since then. A TON of my girlfriends back home (houston) have gone to the "fat" doctor and lost a TON of weight. I can email pics of friends who use it. They dont eat much different either.

[39lbs_to_go_and_counting]

Hey everybody... I went to the doctors today for my 3rd weigh in and I lost another 4 lbs this week thats a total of 19 lbs in the past 3 weeks. I am so excited about this achievement that I'm on cloud nine right now. This week was exceptionally hard because I was not able to get to the gym (just think if I would have). As far as all of you who have read my last comment about my personal issue me and my husband have decided to completely put all of this behind us so I am saying that I will not discuss it from this point forward with anybody. I thank the people who have given me support on this issue. I love him and he loves me and people make mistakes in thier life sometimes its whether they learn from those mistakes and never make them again. I wish everybody the best of luck on thier weight loss and I look forward to coming back next week and posting that I lost 4 more pounds because that would put me at my 1/2 way point in just a month (my goal is 46 pounds total).

Hello everyone. Just browsing and saw this site.I lost all my weight on this program total 70 pounds! A lot of you are asking for help in finding a doctor. Try a Internal Medicine MD. they sometimes participate in this weight loss program (mine does). Phentermine is the generic name for Adipex. Also, it is a possibility for some people to drop a lot of weight during the first week,its a lot of water but it helps motivate us to continue on. As others mentioned you MUST do your part.If you do nothing it will be much slower to come off. When you get near your target, things will get a bit harder but DO NOT STOP it will come off. When all done and your goal is met please dont think you can just go back to your old habits.YOU WILL gain back all and probably more. My doc is in Greenbelt Maryland. Dr. Gupta- $75 first visit (they give you pills,menu plan and B12shot) then $70 every three weeks.

Happy Saturday everyone. I must say to MsAmbr85, great job this week! Keep up the good work and you will see the progress, my best advice is to keep doing the exercise (anything) because once I stopped 3 weeks ago I have had a hard time getting back into the gym, thank god I am still losing weight (must be all the mattress mambo lol. I am determined to get back into the gym starting this weekend!
Well on to the good part, I weighed in this morning and lost another 2.5lbs this week. That brings my grand total to 24.0 lbs lost in 5 weeks! Yes, and what's even better is that I am back into the 150's. I was 157 when I got pregnant with my 18 month old son so that was 2 1/2 years ago so it's been a long time coming. Keep up the hard work everyone and remember you are looking and feeling better everyday and that should be enough to smile in the morning. I know that when I look in the mirror I am so happy with my progress because I can see it. I get so excited after I weigh in that as soon as I get home I jump on here and post my success!!!

The b-12 shots sound great, but won't the b-12 pills do the same job?

[Nemo248]

Did you say that you were on a B-12/appetite suppressant in the Hampton roads area before? where exactly is it? what the name of the place/contact info? and what is the appetite suppressant that you used? I'm in the Hamton Roads VA area and I would love to start the program as well to lose weight for my wedding.

Hope to hear from you soon  :)

[Nemo248]

Hi yankeedoodle,
Did you get the Phentermine tablets prescribed to you from the staff at the Tidewater Weight Loss Center in Little Creek? if not where were you able to get a prescription for it in the Hampton Roads area? I'm interested in doing both the B-12 shots and the Phentermine pills together. I really need to get in shape fast!
Thanks for the info on the center itself, it's very much appreciated!!

[39lbs_to_go_and_counting]

Hello,

South Hampton Weight loss was the name of the place I went to. I don't know a phone number, but I know they had a location in Hampton and one in Virginia Beach. They were really good. I was on the Phentermine 37.5 appetite suppresent, which is the same one that I am on now. Good luck.

[39lbs_to_go_and_counting]

Hello everyone, thought I would come on and post my weight loss this week. I weighed in yesterday for my 6th weigh in/6th week. I am down 1.2 more lbs for a total of 25.2 lbs in 6 weeks. It doesn't sound like a lot but I am not frustrated because last Sunday I ate a big Cuban meal (That I cooked) because cuban food is my weakness especially plantanos. I wanted to reward myself for all my hard work. Then on Friday night (the night before weigh in) it was my son's 8th birthday and we went to Red Robin. I had a chicken sandwich with bacon, guac, mayo and I also ate 1/2 my fries along with salt and ketchup. So yes I was very bad the night before weigh in. My nurse said that since I just ate that salty meal less than 16 hours before my weigh in that it probably effected me by at least 2 lbs. I am looking for a 4 lb weight loss this week to make up for it. Keep with it everyone and rememer to treat yourself every now and then but don't over do it, especially the night before a weigh in.

Hi Nemo248,

There is a SouthHampton Health Services diet clinic located at 11747 Jefferson Ave, 2-d Newport News, Va. The phone # is 5951064. They also have a location on Executive Dr. in Hampton,Va. You can make an appt. at either location if you just call the #. Its 175.00 for the EKG( first appt.) There after the shot and weekly appt. is 25.00. They give you a prescription (30 day supply) for Phentermine and Maxide(water pill).

[theshoejunkie]

Does anyone know of a clinic in Dallas other than the Latino Clinic or Dr. Puempel? It seems like the doctors in Houston are MUCH cheaper. Dr. P office is 150 for the first visit and 80 for every two weeks. In Houston its like 30 every 2 weeks.

[bigwinn]

Well the Latino clinic is only 70.00 for the visit and then 60.00 for the follow up. i'm considering getting with a few ladies of health like myself and taking a carpool to Houston one Saturday morning and share the gas and maybe a car rental, it should be cheap. You'll get your pills,water pills, and b-12 shot for 80.00 in Houston at the Internet Clinic, it's something to think about. See you later, good luck.

[39lbs_to_go_and_counting]

YES! YES! YES!
I did ladies, my goal was to hit 30lbs total weight loss with this weigh in today and I did it! I lost 4 lbs this week for a grand total of 30lbs lost in just 7 weeks. I feel amazing right now, my body is looking really good and my energy is extremely high. I get the greatest complements from my man about my figure and body parts! It's hard to believe that just 7 weeks ago I had another 30lbs on me that is scary and I will never go back! I am at 153.0 right now and again my goal is 135 lbs. Therefore I have 18lbs to go and that's with wearing clothes at my weigh in (I kinda have to, lol) so really I only have to loose about 16 more because they say your jeans and shirt weigh at least 2lbs. I think that this forum/blog is the greatest thing for our encouragement, support and drive. I feel so close to all of you and I have never met you girls. I cannot imagine what I will look like when I hit 135lbs. I think the last time I weighted 135lbs I was probably in the 8th grade. I was never fat or chucky growing up because I was always a tomboy playing sports, I just didn't have the 6 pack stomach and skinny legs. I always had the gear in the back and the thickness over my whole body. I don't want to loose my thickness though, I just want to loose the excess fat that doesn't belong and get toned.

It is quite encouraging to see progress from fellow ladies that have similar issues.

I embarked upon a weight loss journey last year October 2007 and since then i have lost a total of 26lbs starting at 264lbs and currently at 238lbs. I feel like I could use the boost.

I have a scheduled appointment with Dr. Bergeron of Houston TX on March 3 2008, and i am quite excited about this.

I will definitely be visiting this website on a weekly basis to give you updates on my weight loss progress!!!

Hey there guys! I just started this program with the b12 shot and 15mg phentermine pills. The doctor said to come back within 3 weeks 10-15 pounds lighter. I was 172pds on monday, Feb. 25, 2008 and this morning, March 4, 2008, it said 162.2pds. Is that POSSIBLE?? I mean loosing 10 pounds in a week?? I barely eat anything (like 300 calories a day) and exercise often (maybe 30 minutes a day). What the hell is going on?? The funny thing is though, my pants are not any looser and no one noticed a change. There's  really nothing wrong with my scale...or maybe there is. I don't Know just help me because I need some type of reassurence. Thank YOu!!

[39lbs_to_go_and_counting]

There is nothing wrong with your scale! You are going to loose the weight with this program/diet/exercise. Keep it up and don't change a thing. I was just like you, I was only eating like 350 calories a day litterly and I wasn't hungry. I was exercising and as you can see it worked for me. Your pants are not going to fit any looser for a week or two more, you see right now you are loosing the water and toxin weight, but starting in about week 3 you will loose the fat and bad weight. Let me refraze that, it's all bad weight so congrat's, but the first 10-12 lbs especially at our size (cause we were about the same start weight) will be un-noticable. I know the beginning of the race is tough, the middle is easy and the final stretch is the roughest. I believe that I am in the final stretch and I am loving it, I am back in the gym and I have had a hard workout the past 3 days in a row! I hope this is the reassurance that you needed, because you can do it!

I am in central FL and started on B12, phentermine, 1200 cal diet on January 8.  I lost 15lbs the first 4 weeks and only 4.5 lbs the second month.  The first month was very encouraging, and although I am still sticking to the diet, I wish the next month had been just as successful.
However, 19lbs in 2 months is a lot better than no lbs lost the last two months in 07 on my own.
There is definitly something to these shots.  

[prinsess444]

can someone pls help me. I live in canada. Is there anywhere in canada to get the phentermine and B12 injections or perhaps even in the washington state??? Seattle. pls help :( i get so excited reading everyones stories. I hope to experience this myself! Thanks

[39lbs_to_go_and_counting]

It's saturday, weigh in day for me...
I lost 1 pound this week, no that is not a misprint. I lost one pound, but thats okay because for one it's that time of the month for me and you know ladies we weigh slighly heavier during that week and for two the nurse said not to change a thing I am doing (cause I told her I had 3 intesive work-outs this week and I at pretty good). She said that my body is just adapting and has gotten used to what I have done the last 8 weeks. She said that next week she will give me the B6 shot as well and I will do that every other week. She said that will jump start my body again and basically trick it. Has anyone else ever experienced this. I am at 152.0 lbs now and I started at 182.6 lbs so I have lost 31 lbs total and I have a goal of 135 lbs with no clothes on. So therefore I have approx. 16 more lbs to go if you figure clothes weighs 2 lbs. She said that the last few pounds are the hardest. So we will see next week, I am going to hit the gym a minimum of 3 times this week and eat right and next week I pray to see a bigger number and then the following week after that B-6 shot maybe I will only need 10 more lbs to go. Great job ladies on all the success and keep it up. I think quite a few of us are really getting into this blog I know I pretty much log on here at least once a day to see if anyone has posted anything.

[Fiercely_Hot]

Well yesterday made it one week that i started on the Phen and B12 diet and I lost only 4 lbs leaving me at 237 (i weighed 241 when i went to the Dr office). Although I have to say I was on a 800 calorie diet and I worked out 3 days a week.
This week I am going to try something different- max 300 calories and we will see how that goes.
Stay tuned!!!!

[loleather1]

Hello everyone. Just browsing and saw this site.I lost all my weight on this program total 50 pounds! back in 2006 My  doc was in Greenbelt Maryland. Dr. Gupta- 60 first visit (they give you pills,menu plan and B12shot) then $65 every three weeks. i just moved to austin texas WILL ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN GO AND GET B-12 injection in austin or san antonio tx

[LookinLean]

To: mb0307
I am in Houston and I am on the same program; started 3/3.  I have already lost 12 lbs!!!!  The clinic I go to also has a location in San Antonio.  I am pretty new to this site, so I am not quite sure how this works, but I think I cannot list here the clinic info.  Email me and I will give you the contact info.  

I am taking 37.5 mg phentermine, 1/2 water pill daily.  I received a B12/B6 injection and a lipo B injection on my first visit..can't wait to go back for another.

[39lbs_to_go_and_counting]

You guys are never going to believe this, just when I thought everything was going to really slow down and the end of the race would be hard, I went for my weigh in yesterday and I lost 5.6 lbs this week, I cannot believe that 9 weeks into it I could loose such a high number ( I feel like the show the biggest loser). My current weight is 146.6 lbs and I have lost a total of 36.0 lbs in 9 weeks. I went shopping on Thursday night and bought 1 new skirt, 3 new dress pants and 4 new work blouses, 2 necklaces, a pair of earrings, a pair of jeans and a weekend shirt and 3 pair of nice work Calvin Klein dressy healed sandles for work to treat myself on all the hard work. Macy's was having a major sale and then I had a 20% off my entire purchase coupon. I wanted to wait till the very end, but I could not take the really baggy clothes anymore, unless someone knew I was dieting  they wouldn't understand why my clothes were so baggy. I was so excited because the skirt and pants were all size 7/8 (I may have lost a lot of weight, but I still have curves that fill up those pants and that's what my man likes) and the blouses were all mediums. The outfits that I bought are so cute, they are things that I would have never worn before especially the skirt. When I got home from the mall I modeled for my man and I haven't seen him that excited in a long time, it felt great. I found my self tearing up when I was driving back from my weigh in on Saturday because I cannot believe that I am actually doing it. I am 11.6 lbs away from my goal weight and I know that I will hit it!!! I have not been 146 lbs since after graduating high school 10 years ago. I have not been 135 lbs (my goal weight) since probably the 8th grade. Wish me luck everyone, my goal is to only have to pay my monthly program fee 1 more time in 3 weeks, which will give me a total of 7 weeks left and I want to loose this final 11.6 lbs in the next 4 weeks so that I can spend the last 3 weeks maintaining before I go off the B-12 and Phentermine program. Once I am off, I will be good I know I will!!!

This is my second week report as promised.

I weighed in today at 228lbs and I have lost a total of 12.5lbs in 2 weeks.

I also want to let you know that last week I had mentioned I was going to stick to a 300 calorie diet per day so I could lose more weight, well I did, but on sunday morning I passed out for a couple of mins!!!! my blood sugar had gotten so low my body could not handle the starvation anymore (2 wks ago I had blood work done and it was perfect).

For those of us out there who might have read my blog lastweek, this is heads up for you, "Please do not consume less than 1000 calories on this program!!!!!" My doctor had recommended a 1200 calorie diet but I did not listen.

Other than that everything looks great!!! I got my second shot of B12-B6 Vitamins and I am marching forward.

Till I talk to you next week, keep loosing!!!!!!!
Fiercely_hot

[jacnkell]

OK I'm doing it!  I went to the doctor and had a lipo b and my b6/b12 shots, he gave me Phentermine 37.5 and hydrochlorothiaz.  I weighed in at a whopping 204.5!!  I chose to give myself the injections so I have a months worth and will be weighing in at home.  

Anyone having luck eating 300 calories every 4 hours? or is it better to eat less?

Thanks and good luck to all!

[2thick33023]

I am in the Hollywood area. Between Miami and Fort Lauderdale, FL.  Can someone tell me if they know about a dr where I can get the Phentermine and b12 shot. Please let me know. I will be checking the site regulary because I need to find one.

[Jazzmatt]

Hi I live in north carolina. I have been going to a clinic and getting lipo b shots and phentermine. I have lost 28lbs so far. I am at a stand still. there is another doctor i have heard of that gives a meal plan or diet plan. I was reading and kept seeing that. Mine did not just told me to do 800 calories or less. I really need to get this 75lbs more off. Can anyone tell me about their diet plan or menu to see if i am able to do it with the phen and libo b? i am really excited for all of you! congrats on the weight loss. and the water pills are they perscription only also or does the ones in the drug store work as well also?

will be checking often. thanks and wish us all continues success!

[katzkitty]

I have posted comments in other sections and this one too.  What I would like to know is what are you taking pill wise? What are your menu plans examples for diet? What vitamins? What type of fitness program?

I am a stay at home mom 3 boys from 16-5yrs old running in and out all day.  I have started back in mid nov 07 w/weight loss clinic seen some results slowly.  I am now taking 1.5 pill phentermine and water pill (walmart) cheaper than clinic. I get vitamin B12 shot once a month on check in.  I lack serious energy!!! I ordered b12 pill from dr. Gates just started taking when I remeber this week.  Was thinking about getting shots but not sure which ones and dont want to spend more money.  I lost about 6lbs give or take when losing/gaining. I had gone through some problems w/bc pill I was given and for 7 months no menstural! just got it after 2months going off on my own and feel better!

I started making my own diet shake in morning thought it would help but went up 3lbs since last visit.  I dont like eating breakfast so I assumed this would solve my problem.  I haven't been really eating bad foods I am eating healthy, but not really dieting cuz I am not much of a big eater to begin with.  

As for energy I seem not to want to hop on the treadmill too tired to.  I was wondering for those who took weight off how many days a week and what u did?  How did you start?
I have seen a review for jorie clinic in illinois and it seems people there took weight off very quickly! Any advice?

If I pushed myself to start a fitness routine will I get energy that way?

[LookinLean]

went yesterday to weigh in and to get a second set of injections....b12/b6 and lipo b.  (hurt worse this time!)  Who cares though I HAVE LOST 17 POUNDS in 2 1/2 weeks!!!!!!!  

To be honest.... I am not eating as directed (300 cal every 4 hrs), I really have no desire to eat.  I am not consumed by food anymore and I love it.  I am exercising 3-4 times a week and drinking a lot more water than i used to.  I feel so much better.

Question......Has anyone taken the b12 pills and how do they compare to the injection?  I don't know if i can continue the shots.

Good luck to everyone.....your posting help me a lot!

Hello everyone, hope you had a great Easter Holiday! I had my 10th weigh in yesterday and I lost half a pound. I am not really sure what happened, I did great all week eating wise, but I will admit that I didn't exercise (not that I really have been anyway). The doctor told me that since I am at my last 11lbs of weight loss and because of my current height and weight that it is not going to be easy to lose this 11lbs. She said that my body is just completly adjusted to what I eat now so if I continue with what I am eating and don't add the exercise it will be a slow process. I am going to give it every effort to hit the gyrn this monday - friday. My current weight is 146.0 lbs and I have exactly 11 lbs to go.

As promised this is my weekly update- couple of days late

I stopped using Phentermine last week, just to see how my body would react if I stopped using it.

Well, I got hungry every now and then, it took more effort from me to stick to a 1000 to 1200 calorie diet. There were days I had a slice of pizza, half a pack of gummies, 1 piece of fried chicken....... just stuff I should not eat and I walked for 30 mins.

I am happy to say that even though I did not lose anything I also did not gain any. This leaves me at 228lbs (same as lastweek).

I started using phentermine again yesterday and working out. I will be back next Tuesday to give you an update.

1st week .................. Lost 4 lbs
2nd week ................. Lost 8.5 lbs
3rd week .................. Lost 0 lbs

Stay Tuned and keep loosing!!!!!

[nuggetone]

To all that are taking phentermine  Alot of people here have taken the pills but after they stopped the weight came back so I wish all of you good luck.  I have taken it too.  My weight came bk as well.  The pills seem to make most people hateful and short spoken.  Therefore I payed close attention to myself and realized I was also being short spoken.  I do wish everyone luck.

Hello,

Im new to the Houston area and I need more info on physicians that offer this cocktail so that I can research and compare them, however I do appreciate the two given so far Intermet Clinic and Dr. Bergeron. Also has anyone experienced hair loss with this cocktail as a side effect? I dont want to be bald headed and fat!!! No disrespect to anyone who is, I just know what looks I can Rock, and that isnt one of them! Thanks so much.

[TXgal25]

I cannot swallow pills and am wondering if the shots alone are affective or if its a waste of money without also taking the pills.

[39lbs_to_go_and_counting]

Hello everyone, sorry I have not been able to get on for about a week. I've been so busy with work and home life. I weighed in on Saturday for my 11th weigh in and lost another 2 lbs this week for a total of 38.0 lbs total lost in 11 weeks; thats a average of 3.45 pounds a week since I started. My current weight is 144.6 lbs and I feel absolutly great! I am in a size 6 jeans and size 8 work pants. I have 9 more lbs to go and I can only imagine how hot I will look when those last 9 are gone. I have a strategy. I pay monthly for my program and this coming weekend the 5th will be my 4/4 saturday from the last time I paid and then on the 12th I will pay for 4 more weeks which will give me the shot and pills all the way to May 10th. My plan is to take the next 3 weeks exercising very hard, crunches (working those abs), working my thighs and hips, dieting really good and trying to not cheat! This way I can drop the last 9 lbs in 3 weeks and use my last 2 weeks as a maintanence before I stop going to my clinic. I would love to do the maintanence longer, but I drive 2 hours and 15 minutes round trip every Saturday for this and it's getting tiring. Wish me luck on this plan, I think I can do it! I have not been in a size 6, oh my gosh since at least 8th grade. And I was never fat, just a little thick and muscular so this feels great. The way my man puts his hands on me makes all of this worth it. In the last 2 weeks I feel like a totally different person, I have lost a total of 38lbs, got a brand new 2008 car, bought a brand new wardrob, my debt is practically non exsistant and my career is going great!!! It's amazing how much a little confidence can give you!

Once again my update is late by 4 days, I will try to do better nextweek.
I have lost a whooping "3 lbs" from last week Tuesday (not much but that is 3 lbs i dont have to deal with anymore)

I also want to note that I have lost a lot of body inches!!!

Total current weight- 225lbs!!!!
Start off weight during workout and diet- 264lbs- October 1st
Start off weight with phentermine and LipoB- 241lbs- March 3rd


1st week .................. Lost 4 lbs
2nd week ................. Lost 8.5 lbs
3rd week .................. Lost 0 lbs
4th week .................. Lost 3lbs
Total weight loss on phentermine and LipoB- 15.5 lbs
Total weight loss from October to April 2nd- 39 lbs

Also I am not sure I am loosing weight the way I need to because I started loosing weight naturally from 264 to 241lbs just eating right and exercising, then at 241 I started using Phentermine and Lipo B. I am at my 40lbs mark and for some reason no matter what I do it seems my body is at a plateau.

But you know what? I am going to keep on keeping on. For the first time in my life I am happy and proud to be loosing something, I really want to loose!!!!

I'm amazed!  I must live under a rock.  I have never heard of such a thing.  I'm interested!!  I've been trying to lose weight for a couple months (really focused over the past couple weeks) and have only lost 5 pounds.  Does insurance cover these injections?

I came across this forum as a result of Googling for info on B12 injections.  I will be starting a medically monitored weight loss program which will include an appetite suppressant and optional injections of B12, Lipotropic, and HCG.  It has been very helpful and encouraging to read all of your posts.  

I have not been overweight all my life.  I started gaining slowly but surely about 8 years ago. I am currently 5'6" and weigh 210 lbs. My goal weight is 135 lbs., so I have 75 lbs to lose.  I know that is quite a mountain to get over but I am determined to make it.

I am looking forward to sharing my experience and hopefully success on this program with everyone.

BTW, I live in Southeast Texas.

Hello to all, I received my first b12 shot on Wednesday April 9th at a center located in Hampton,VA. I weighed in at 177lbs. I am looking to lose about 30lbs. I see that everyone is so positive in here and I just wanted to get in on the blogs, so that I'll have some type of motivation.(thanks in advance). I will be going back this Thursday April 17th to get weighed in and pick up my meds for the first time.  Well, wish luck and I'll be back to tell you how much progress I've made.

I visited the medical weight loss clinic on 4/4 and received CG shot and Bontril.  My weight loss the first week was 4.6 lbs.  I have received my second shot on 4/11 but am afraid my weight loss will not be the same.  For those members who are taking the water pill, is this in addition to the appetite suppresant?  How often should the water pill be taken?

LESSONS LEARNED
When i weighed in on my first day I had:
127lbs of Fat free mass and 114lbs of fat mass.

If you recall I mentioned that I was on a 300 calorie diet just because I wanted the weight to come off faster. By the end of my first 2 weeks on phen and lipo B, i had lost 12.5 lbs, which sounds great except for the fact that this time around my
fat free mass was down to 119 lbs and I had only lost about 5lbs of fat.

This is not the kind of weight loss we should be looking forward to, you want to loose the fat and not muscle!!!!

I am happy to say that during my third visit to the Dr this week, my FFM had increased to 122 lbs and FM went from 109 to 99lbs-YIPPEE!!!!!!

Bottom line, try to eat atleast 1000 calories, your body will regulate itself- the more the muscles you have the more calories you burn and the more fat you loose!!!

Till next week, keep loosing the fat and not the muscle!!!

Hello everyone, I went back to the office to pick up meds and weigh in.  I only lost 2lbs. but that was just with the b12 shot so I'm still positive.  I have been taking phenermine and since then I've shed quite a bit the last couple of days, I am due for my next weigh in this week, so I'll let you all know what happens. (wish me luck).

I've been on the weight management plan of the Harwin Wellness and Pain Management Clinic for 3 weeks now. So far I've lost 11 pounds. I really like the clinic because it's clean and everyone is helpful. As oppossed to just giving you shots and a pills, the staff takes their time to help you with any questions. On the first visit, I was weighed, given a ekg (heart monitoring) and talked extensively with the P.A. who administers the program. There's one more week in this month and I'm hoping to lose a total of 15 pounds. It truly works.

Way to go Fiercely!!  You are doing so good as so many others are also.  Are you going weekly for a shot and then daily taking phetermine?  How does that work,,,,I live outside Houston  and wouild love to lose about 15 lbs,,,

[Fiercely_Hot]

Hi,
So far so good I have had 4 shots as of today, My first one was on my first visit (march 3rd), then 2 weeks later- they told me to come back after a month (apparently i was supposed to go back after 2 weeks if i wanted to but i did not know) then I got the fourth one today.

I stopped using phentermine on the 14th of April because I do not want my body to be dependent on it, but I might start using it by the end of this week.

I realized today that the center I go to only gives 1cc of the Lipo shot for $30 per shot 2ce a month, but another center (internetmedclinics.com) they give 2cc for $20 per shot 4x a month .

So what I am trying to understand is why the center I am going to will only give 2cc in the span of 1 month and why the other one I mentioned is giving 8cc in one month.
If all they are trying to do is to make more money off of me by keeping me in the program for so long then that is really bad!!!

If there is anyone out there that can answer this question please do. thanks in advance

Question
Is there a side effect when you take a total of 8cc of lipoB versus 2cc in a month?

Sorry I had to deviate from your question Honey11, the program works real good and I have come to realize that sometimes when it seems you are not loosing weight, you are definitely loosing inches (which to me is more important).

Make sure you eat atleast 1000 calories, you do not want to look sick after all the weight loss, besides you want to lose fat and not muscle.  

Otherwise you end up loosing weight on the scale, but by the time you do your body composition your body fat percentage would be higher then when you first started, just because you are not eating enough and when that happens you begin to deplete your muscles and tissues!!! and that is not good for you!!!!

The first 2 weeks in my diet that was exactly what i did and I ended up loosing 12.5lbs, well my body fat percentage went from 47.3 to 47.7. You would think that because I lost 12.5lbs, my body fat percentage would have gone down drastically, but no it did not and the reason being that I starved myself on a 300 calorie per day diet, needless to mention that I passed out after a week of eating just salads and 1 piece of chicken.lol (that was silly)

Bottom line eat healthy and in moderations, ensure it is a life style you can maintain when you get off the pills. and honestly loosing 15lbs will be a piece of cake on this program.

Good luck
