Vitamin D & B12?!
Question: Vitamin D & B12!?
Ok!. I have a simple question!.
Is vitamin D and B12 fattening!?
I got some blood test done and it said I don't have enough B12 and vitamin D!.
I already have the pills (supplements) but!.!.!.I don't want them to make me fat!.
I don't usually have milk, cheese, or any other dairy product except for yogurt!.!.!.
I eat low-fat stuff!.
I do not want this to make me gain weight!.
I have some problems with my sugar (no I'm not diabetic)!. If I have too much I'll gain weight and it's just bad for me!.
So I try to not have a lot of sugar and I stick to chicken & salad a lot!. I eat very little!. -!.- Don't tell me to eat more, I'll gain like 60 pounds if I eat like 7 times a day (including snaking)!. I eat 3 times a day; breakfast (small something), dinner, snack!.
Sometimes I have stuff in between but yeah!.
Do those vitamins make you gain weight!? I gained like 2 pounds ever since I started taking them!.
I do not like them at all!. Can I live without them!? And just have more foods that are HEALTHY!?

You can actually get vitamin D from sunlight!.
And no, they don't make you fat, haha!.
The only thing that makes you fat is a sedentary lifestyle!. If you exercise often and eat at least decently, you will be in great shape!. It's not so much the foods you eat as how much activity you get that determine your body type!.
And you shouldn't eat unhealthily in fear of gaining weight, again, exercise will eliminate any fat you accumulate from eating!.
You should consult a professional about diet and exercise, I'm sure they'll be able to answer any questions you may have and offer suggestions to help you stay in shape!. Good luck!
EDIT: You won't necessarily lose weight, and exercise is a key ingredient to staying in shape!. Gaining weight doesn't necessarily mean you're getting out of shape, or fat!. Exercise + eating good = healthy!.
Note: Avoiding certain foods because they have fat content, as said above, can rob you of VERY valuable sources of nutrients!. Just exercise and you will be fine, I guarantee it!.
There's a lot of health propaganda out there, but a diet consisting of those things does not provide the nutrients your body needs, which is probably why you've been prescribed them!.
I'm going out on a limb here, but think about this: have you ever seen a fat animal!? Very seldom are animals out of shape, save for when they are pets of humans who do not care for them properly!. Wild animals that eat other animals aren't fat, and just think of how many carbs and fats are in there(By the way, carbs are the 2nd most important nutrient, behind water!. Their name has been slandered, however, because there are good carbs and bad carbs)!
How often do you exercise now!?
PS: Not to make him the fall guy, but you don't want to end up like the below poster!.
Nerve damage is VERY bad, since nerve cells only reproduce about once in an entire lifetime!. This also explains why when someone is paralyzed, their body often doesn't recover by itself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I also had these defficiencies and incredible sugar cravings ,I now taked vitamin D tablets and Chromium for sugar cravings and haen't looked back ,you will also find if you are vitamin D defficient that your joints ache ,another way of getting more vitamin D is from the sun, and I already get enough of that as I live in Australia and eat healthy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Well, first, no, vitamins don't make you gain weight!. Excessive calorie count does!. Vitamin D is good for skin health and B12 regulates skin and just about all other body functions -- very important!
Beware of lowfat diets! They can be robbing to the body of vitamins, and taking supplements often isn't absorbed!. You may have to eat more if the supplements aren't being absorbed (some people have this problem, like my mother)!. Just try replacing the chicken once or twice a week with red meat (has more B12 than chicken)!. Also, add back 2% milk instead of skim milk if that applies to you (more Vitamin D)!.
I'm no authority, but I've been vegetarian and it can rob your body of more than it gives back to you!. If you have an issue with weight, just make sure it's not mental!. Love your body for the way it is (if you don't already, that is)!.

NO vitamin or mineral will make you gain weight!.
I have a vitamin B12 deficiency!. I have to get an injection of it once a month!.
Vitamin B12 is very important to have!. It's part of the production of red blood cells and DNA!. It also forms the protective sheath around the nerves in your body, so a deficiency can cause nerve damange!.
Vitamin B12 deficiency can also cause you to be anemic, which is another list of symptoms, like being tierd, weak, depressed!.
I unfortunately didn't know I had a B12 deficiency until I had nerve damage in my legs!.
TAKE THE VITAMINS, they are something your body NEEDS!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
