And from experience.. fyi... Vitamin shots are better in the abdomen and or hip... arms HURT... I just had a B6 and they put it in my arm and it took three days for it to quit hurting.. like shoving cold molasses into the muscle...

I do sub-Q injections in my belly of B12. In the beginning, I had one shot every week and I gave them to myself after my doctor showed me how to do them. As my levels adjusted, I got them every other week, and now I get them once a month.

While I can't say I ever noticed a reaction like an inability to sleep, they did help immensely. I felt more rested even with the same amount of sleep, I had more energy during the day and my memory really improved. All of this led to me feeling less irritable and generally easier to be around.

I was also diagnosed with an Iron deficiency at the same time and started taking a prescription Iron supplement around the same time, which might explain why I had such immediate effects. I felt better within two days of starting both supplements.

They say B12 also boosts metabolism but I honestly didn't notice any increase in weight loss or appetite. I simply felt better, which was my goal.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
