Topic: RE: Neuropathy
Steph, I take 2 B-12 (500 mg each) Sublinguals a day, I also take a B-1 vitamin (250 mg) and a Super B Complex (?? mg). It won't hurt you, up your dosage and see if it helps. Not trying to scare you but neuropathy isn't always reverseable so take care of it soon.

great news on the 7 pounds! don't worry it'll come off. i have been really slow again lately and i've lost 3 pounds in the past two days so i'm hoping mine might pick up again. i'm so close to my personal goal it seems like my body doesn't want me to get there. 9 more pounds though...so close i can smell it!! again congrats to you on the awesome -7lb weekend!!

Dana, I do take a B Complex daily and I take the sublingual b12 three times a week. i'm going to start taking the b12 daily then and see how that works. i figured i'd ask my doctor to do some blood work and test my b12 before i get too freaked out about it. thanks for the advise.

Topic: RE: who determined your goal weight for you?
My surgeon set my goal at 130 lbs, not sure what determined it but that is what he expects me to get to. I had originally thought I wanted to be around 120 lbs but I'm thinking 130 will be fine, I'll know for sure once I get there.

Topic: RE: Neuropathy
Steph, I was having signs of neuropathy in my legs and feet, especially my right side. My surgeon recommended I take B-1 and B-12 sublingual daily and monitor the symptoms a few days, within 1 week all signs were gone, which says yes I had B vitamin deficiency.
Are you supplementing with B vitamins? Neuropathy seems to be more common than I originally researched.
Don't play with this, start supplementing today, you cannot overdose on B vitamins, they are water soluable and what your body doesn't use is passed through urination.
Sorry I didn't post sooner, I was out of town and not close to a computer.

Steph,
My doc gave me a goal that he thought that the surgery would help me lose and a goal that he would like to see me lose. Well the surgery goal is 189lbs that would be what it would help me loose. But his goal for me is 164lbs that would be 225lbs lost. I would like to be at about 175lbs. I think that would be a good weight for me. so go with how you feel.

Hey All,
Ok I lost about 7lbs this weekend but I am not sure if it is water because I was a bad girl. We went to the Mt. my freind has a cabin up there. And I had a few drinks 
. That is realy the first time I have drank since my date. But I also drank water before bed and it was about 37 out so it was cold. I dont know what it was but I lost 7lbs. So hopfully I will lose more now. Hope it is broken. and I will lose some more.
