I used to take a B12 once a month and I didn't notice any type of apetite change or energy boost when I received my injection. I have heard of some people having this kind of reaction but I personally didn't. I think it just depends on the person. It makes sense with an energy boost, apetite changes would occur since it's feasable a metabolic change could occur as well. Perhaps you sould consider a sublingual to prevent a sudden dose of B12 and a metabolic change? I use Vita4Life sublinguals, and since finding them I haven't required the shots at all. The link is here. Good luck! http://vita4life.net/products/bariatric-vitamins-b-12-sublingual.html

I also take them under my tongue. I get them at Trader Joe's. The label says the ingredient is cyanocobalamin. This isn't the same as mentioned by @@James Marusek. I've been taking them every other day and my labs came back that the levels are 1400% higher than they need to be, so I'm taking them less often.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
