Thanks GettinFitin, I would love to find Crystal Light made with Splenda. I am going to try to find it. I did not know Splenda was also bad for you. Thanks for the response. Goodluck with your weight loss.

Bell...you need to try to drink at least 128 oz (1 gallon) of water per day. It really makes a difference.

I started my b12,b6,lipotropic injections last wednesday, no weight loss yet. I know it hasn't even been a week. I have not really been following any diet, I guess that's the problem. I'm going to make sure I stick to some sort of diet, because I think that if I don't, I won't be seeing any progress. Has anyone had any luck with the their weight loss. Please let me know. Thanks

I started the shots last Sunday and this morning I have already lost 3 lbs. I definitely feel the energy boost and have been exercising more. Also, I have been taking the herb Milky Oats for anxiety and I feel like it is really helping as I am definitely an anxiety eater. I followed the advice of my acupuncturist and am eating small portions more frequently - five to six smaller meals a day rather than three big ones.

I am dreading the weekend a little as I have two events that involve eating and alchohol - Just have to keep telling myself not to erase the progress I am making!

Cheers,
Betty

GettinFitin, thanks for the advice. I have heard you do need to drink a lot of water. I am drinking about a little over half a gallon a day. I think I need to increase that. I had my fourth b6,b12,lipotropic injections today 5/16/08. I have lost 4 pounds so far. I hope to keep losing.

[Bell]

BettyVegas, I understand you completly. When the weekend comes around, I usually have activities to do that involove eating and drinking. The weekends are the worst for me. During the week I do really good. It is hard to be at an event where everyone is drinking, and not want to have a glass of wine or two. I hope that I see some significant weight loss, because as of now I have not. Wish me luck, and good luck to you as well.

Hi Bell,

Have you had your thyroid looked at? I was having a really hard time losing weight and it turns out I am hypothyroid. Now with treatment and the B12/Lipo shots I am finally seeing the scale budge. I am doing natural treatments though - decided not to go on synthroid.

[Bell]

Kathymori, I had my thyroid check last year, and it was normal. I really have such a hard time losing weight though. Are the b12, lipo shots working for you? Are you following a strict diet and exercise plan? I am injecting myself with twice a week with 2ml each time, I don't know if maybe I should be getting the shots 3 times a week. The doctor told me I could not go over 3 times a week. I don't know what I should do.

"]dont know why post says im in flordia but i am in bham and i have been going to adv weight loss i just want some pointers like am i still suppose to eat sweets is drinking sprite all right since its not carmel colored things like that i am not taking the pills just the injections.

1)Drink 1 gallon of water (not 1/2 gallon but a full gallon) daily to flush fat out of body.
2)Eat 10-12 oz. of protein daily with lots of veggies.
3)No white food: rice, pasta, potatoe, white flour bread, cookies etc. or fruit after mid-day.

Is there anyone out there who goes to the Internet Med Clinic in The Woodlands, Tx? I would like to know if you get the shots with the meds and if you have noticed and positive results?

Dee, I go to the one on 1960/Walters. In three days I lost 5 lbs.(7 lbs. in a week).
First visit prescription w/shots.$70.
Weekly visits for shots ($10 each) they check blood pressure before shot.

Could someone who has been ordering from Gloria at healing light holistic center let me know how the injections are working? I have ordered from Dr. Gates in the past but the price difference between Dr. Gates and Gloria is huge. I would be crazy to pay more if people are getting the same results.

Thanks in advance for your help

Hello- I am wondering if this is safe to take. is it an injection and a B12 pill? How does it work? I want to lose 33 pounds. I just bought a treadmill and I love to walk, but I would like to take something whole i am doing it the first four weeks, to get me a great start. I live in utah and I don't know where to look to see if there is a reputable doctor that would give these o me. Thank you- Debbie

I've been on this diet since the end of Jan 2008 and have lost 39lbs so far. I started @ 170, am 131 now, and my goal is 115 (I'm 5ft tall). As far as what I eat, I mostly eat low fat protein (grilled chicken breast!) with some green viggies and lettuce. The portions are much smaller also. I eat 6oz chkn for dinner and 4oz lean protein for lunch. I fill-in in between with lettuce. Also remember to keep your sugar intake to a VERY minimum (I use splenda) also beware of the fruits and veggies that are HIGH in sugar.

Good luck!

ildesign, are you taking the b6,b12,lipotropic injections, and if so how often? Are you on the Adkins diet, because what you listed you ate sounds like the adkins diet? Are you exercising? I just want to know because I am taking the b6,b12,lipotropic injections. I had my fifth injection today, and I really have not seen any results. I am exercising 30 min. a day, and I don't eat pasta, bread, or rice. I eat protein and veggies. I really wish to see some results soon. If anyone has any advice please let me know.

I just started the B/Lipo and phentermine today. in Atlanta Area doctorswellness.com he has 2 locations in Atl.
I would love some info from you that are doing the injections. Any of you doing them yourselves. Yuck, I'm scared but need to learn. I may switch to the B12 only since the B/lipo is a bit expensive $25 a week plus $80 for phentermine a month that's $180 a month.
Would love some feed back from you guys

[Jelina]

Well I started the injections to weeks ago and have lost 8 lbs. I am also taking the didrex they prescribed and eating healthy, drinking the 62 oz. of water and walking some everyday. i hope it continues.

[Pandy]

OK everybody. I am starting the shots tomorrow. I need to lose 15-20 lbs. Also, I do already excercise and eat right - most of the time. I have been on a plateau for about 2 years and it is very frustrating when your busting your butt at the gym and not seeing results. I am hoping that this will give me a little nudge. I will keep ya all updated!

Pam, I live in Port Richey and am looking for a doctor who gives b12 shoots. I am also looking to see about how much these shoots or weight loss program cost. I have about 30lbs to loss and would like to loss them before the summer rolls around. You sound like you are doing good on the program. can you please give me the name of your doctor and a phone number so that I can check it out. also could you give me an ideal of the cost involved. Thanks

hi....i had a friend who lives in tampa and she went to the glory medical center in tampa, she lost about 50-60lbs in 3 months...those injections and suppressants really did work....i believe the cost of the program ran her about $350 per month which included injections, suppressants, weigh ins, and blood pressures
