hello i went on dietsolution.com to purchase the b12 shots, but there was no where on the website to place orders. can someone tell me what im doing wrong i really need to get the b12 shot to get started for christmas.

I received my b-12 injections from my dr for over a year, then they taught me how to do the injections myself, because bet643 is correct - you must know how to do it the right way and in the right places.  The b-12 serum and needles are definitely prescription and I, too would be very scared to get them over the internet (if you could find a site that sells them and I agree that might not be legal).

In addition to my b-12 shots, I also take an oral, liquid b-complex, so you might think about going that route.  There are many brands of B-complex (pill and liquid) that can be found in pharmacies or your local health food store.  But keep in mind -- it's still not a method of weight loss.  Good luck.

I use to receive B-12 for anemia years ago. My b-12 was given to me by my doctor. I've never heard of this being over the net, or over the counter. I would think that it may be illegal due to the  need of a needle. I would not trust any kind of drug with needles over the net. Plus you must know how to inject yourself. Give your doctor a call before you do anything.

B-12 injections are not readily available over the internet.  As Ranae said - if injections are sought to enhance weight loss, there is no evidence to support that.  I inject b-12 every 2 weeks to correct a deficiency and am living proof that it's not a weight loss supplement!!!  

I've known people who have tried B-12 shots for weight loss, but all it does is give them additional energy to exercise, which is where the weight loss comes in.  All of them have eventually decided that it's not worth the effort/expense because they still have to eat right and exercise to lose weight.  

Try eating healthy foods and get plenty of exercise - if you aren't used to exercising on a regular basis, walking is a great way to start. Christmas is almost 2 months away and depending on how much you want to lose, you have plenty of time to begin eating right (right kind of foods, with proper portions) and getting plenty of exercise to make great headway.  

Good luck and hope to see you here often.  There's a lot of help and encouragement here.

Are you looking to take B12 as a dietary supplement following weight loss surgery or with the hopes of it helping you lose lose weight?  

If it is indicated to correct anemia from iron or vitamin B12 deficiencies that can sometimes be associated with weight loss surgery, then receiving them at your doctor's office or obtaining a script from your doctor is most likely the best option.  

If B-12 injections are being sought to enhance weight loss, there is no evidence to support this.  At that point, I would respectfuly urge you to resist the lure of quick and easy solutions and work to develop a healthy lifestyle by enjoying healthier foods and including physicial activity in your daily routine.

Would absolutely love to have you join us in this community if you'd like information on how to lose weight in a healthful way.  Truly feel we can offer you friendship, support, motivation, information and encouragement.  Each of us has to make a personal choice regarding our decision.

I get my at my doctors office. I do not know about injectable b12 being available to buy over the counter, I think there are oral supplements available though.
