Scared me silly

Itstime · April 15, 2010

I am 4.5 months out and recently started taking a Bcomplex Vitamin. I was taking just B12 1000mg but stopped that and switched to the complex B. Well after 3 days on it I was eating everything in sight. I had such hunger and I grazed all day long and could not believe how much my stomach held. I was astounded at the volume and so upset at the change. I had good restriction bf. I of course had a stall in weight loss, same 3 lbs back and forth and felt my stomach was back to bf surgery! I stopped the Bcomplex and feel a hugh difference in restriction but I do need the B's right? I was so upset. I'm also taking Vit C 500, bariatric multi vit with Iron, Vit D3 and calcium citrate, no change there. Anyone have this happen?

I haven't noticed this when taking a Bcomplex however I did feel that way while on a generic of an antidepressant called Remeron. It felt like I could eat the same amount in volume as I used to, but in reality I was unable to put away the same amount so I found myself grazing. Weight loss was nearly at a stall but came down a few lbs.

I am actually experiencing this now but with B12. I am one month out and have found once I started taking B12 that my hunger increased and I could actually consume more food. Did you ever get a response or any feedback on this? I have told my doc about it, and she said to stop taking B12 for 1 month and see if I notice any difference.
