I hear a lot of people using the b12 shot. I don't know how beneficial it really is to losing the weight, because I myself have never gotten one. I am like chaqira, I only go in for blood pressure, weight and heart monitor, and new prescription for the meds. What exactly is the mic injection and what is it supposed to be for?

I would definately ask the dr about the benefits and maybe even do some research online. If the dr feels you will benefit from it, and the money isn't an issue, then I would do what he recommends.

Good luck!

Methionine
Methionine is a lipotropic amino acid which reduces fat and aids in the lowering of cholesterol. It also plays a vital upstream role in the synthesis of other amino acids needed by the body.

Inositol and Choline
Inositol and Choline are co-enzymes necessary for the prosper metabolism of fats. A deficiency in inositol has been shown to produce an accumulation of triglycerides in the liver. Inositol metabolizes fats and cholesterol and aids in their transport in blood vessels. It is therefore an aid in the redistribution of body fat and can help to lower cholesterol levels. Choline aids in emulsifying cholesterol. Choline also works well with methionine to detoxify amines which are the by-products of protein metabolism. Without choline, fats can become trapped in the liver, where they black normal metabolic functions.

(What do you think?)

Thanks, ny, that clears up quite a bit for me. I would say that considering this information, I would be all for taking that shot. I wish that my dr would let me do some of the supplemental stuff I have seen on here. I think maybe I should ask him about it at my next appt again.

Thanks for the info!
