B-12 Shots



Recommended Posts

What mg's are you guys taking?

I just bought some b-12 500mcg sub. dots - from Walmart. I thought about taking one tonight, but after reading what Mandy wrote, maybe I should wait and start taking them in the AM?

I cant afford to lose any more sleep :notagree

Not sure what the dose is, and it's upstairs, that requires passing a sleeping childs room. I will check tomorrow. I know that mornings are better for me, but ymmv....~Mandy

Ya, B12 is awesome for energy. I take a powdered B12 that I get from a friend in Wisconsin, it really works. She has powdered Calcium that I take too. Let me know if you want to know more and I'll PM you her info.

I have taken the B12/hcg shot while going to weight loss doctors. They are suppose to help you lose inches as well as give you energy. I was wondering about doing the shots after surgery to help keep from being saggy from losing weight.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
