SheWins1 207 Posted September 12, 2013 I found a school nurse to give them to me. In your Arm. Thanks for the suggestion! Spoke with my doc today and she said for me to take 10000mcg of my B12 daily & that would be the same as getting the shots once a month. So I will try that first. I'm only taking 50000mcg right now. Wish me luck! 1 NancyG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nadiyyah 36 Posted September 17, 2013 That is awesome you have lost 47 lbs . I completely agree I feel the same way some says and at times realize that unless you have gone through or are going through this journey you can not know what we go through with the "new me" I use the Internet for different shake ideas it really does make a difference since I can't seem to tolerate a lot of food but I'm working on it Thanks I'm going to try that and good luck on your success. I'm so proud of us all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine was June 24, 2013. I'm exactly 3 months out today & had my check up with my surgeon. Here are my stats. My heaviest weight recoreded at his office was 287.5 lbs. My highest weight ever & was my "ohhhh to THE helllll no" moment was 301lbs! Two weeks pre-op weight 282Lbs. Day if surgery weight 273lbs. Today I weighed in at 232.0lbs. So, 51lbs. Since day of surgery. Here's my pics at 287.5 in purple & todays weight 232 in black. I've lost 38lbs of fat mass & 17lbs. of muscle mass the dietian said. I'm not really sure how they figure that one out? That means 55lbs not 51lbs. From the "recorded" weight she wrote down. Anyone understand how they figure that out?! I wish I could see a bigger difference in my head, but really thrilled to see the numbers going down. Can't wait to see what the next 3 months brings us. Continue on your success! 4 NewSetOfCurves, NancyG, Nadiyyah and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I saw some parents at a fball game on Sat that were like you've lost weight and you look really good.

Continue on your success![/quote'] My dr gives me a print out after I weigh and they gave me a handout that explained how all those #s are factored. It is like x*y/z= whatever. I can't find my handout, but maybe ask if they have that so you can see how those numbers are figured out. I can ask for one when I go for my 6 months (Jan) and put it on here if you don't get anything from your dr by then.
