MIC Injections, Methionine, Inositol, Cholineis, B12

I'm wondering about the success of the MIC Injections for any of you out there?  I just had my 4th weekly injection and am also on a 1200 calorie a day diet.  I have lost 4 lbs at the end of my 3rd week.  What I am noticing is that I am losing inches around my tummy (hips).  These shots are pretty expensive $250 for 5, but I get the weekly visit with my nurse practioner along with a weigh in and support from her & her staff so, I guess that isn't too bad :).  I haven't experienced too much in the way of more energy and hopefully that will come.  I'd love to hear from anyone that was on this program for any length of time and your experience with it.  Thank you.

Anyone would lose weight on a 500-1200 cal diet. You are putting your body through unnecessary stress by pumping all of these chemicals through it. Your liver can only take so much. Eat a high protien/low carb diet. Workout 5 days a week: cardio and resistance training. Take the money that you're throwing at your doctor and get a personal trainer. They will make you more accountable than any scale ever will.
Only when you are living a lifestyle that you can MAINTAIN FOREVER, will you truely lose the weight and keep it off.

So many people on here relying on 500 calorie diets shot, sypnosis, and voodoo for weight loss.
Since it seems to have eluded you all, here is the secret guys..
Eat less
Move more

No need to starve yourself.
Shots are fine, but will not drop the weight like Diet and excercise will.
and when I say exercise, I mean lifting weight, and doing cardio.

Eat 500 calories under what you body requires in a day and you will drop 1 lb per week on average..
First, google the term "BMR calculator" and plus in your numbers to see how many calories your body needs for a day eat that amount on days you exercise, eat 500 calories less on days you don't.
Weight every single thing you eat, and plug it in to fitday.com or livestrong.com so you know how much you are eating.

Lost 12 Pounds in 6 Days and I am not obese about 30lbs overweight

i started going to the doctor last Friday weighed in at 207lbs 29 year old male 5"7 so not huge pretty athletic build. I do not count calories just measure meats 16oz very lean meats and green veggies 4-5oz green only, lettuce, pickles, sugar free jello my fillers. They gave me Calcium Pyruvate, Fish Oil with high Omega 3 make sure you find Fish Oil with high EPA 1200 mg †  DHA 600 mg    which I now buy from Whole Heatlh stuff at grocercy store has too much fat if you put in freezer overnight and it freezes its garbage. Make sure you take a really good multi vitamin. I got a Mic, Chromic Chloride, B12 Injection. I also drank between 140-180 ounces of fluid 1 20 ounce unsweet tea, the rest all water with about 2-3 waters per day with MIO in it. Mio is a new liquid water flavorer.I like to drink Votka so this week i had about 5 Votka drinks with water and a splash of Mio.

I left my mic out of the fridge by mistake for about 5 hours.
Can you tell me what the detrimental effect would be from that?

I am glad to hear your progress and because I read your story I started the program two week ago.  I lost (15) pounds I know it can be done I am a witness to your story.  I started off weighing 333 punds.  I am at 316 now. I can not wait to weigh in on Monday.  I walk (1 )mile every day except Sunday.  I am on a strict diet also.
