‎...anyone have a Vita-Mix? thoughts/reviews? I'm also looking at the magic bullet, but it has mixed reviews (though I do like the small size for travel). just looking for something to make smoothies with Protein Powder, ice and select/few veggies/fruit.

I LOVE my Ninja. It works awesome and fast. I got the cheaper one on QVC for about 50 bucks and it works just fine.

I got a Blendtec instead of a Vitamix. they are comparable in power, but the Blendtec fits under your kitchen cabinets and the Vitamix generally does not. I also like the digital power buttons on the Blendtec compared to the turny knob on the Vitamix. they are both pretty expensive, but worth the cost IMO. they will both purée ice, fruit and veg with ease.

The Ninja is absolutely wonderful for just about anything and everything.

I started with a magic bullet and within a few weeks was frustrated with the thing... I like a lot of ice and it couldn't keep up. For Christmas I received a Vitamix and I'm completely in LOVE!!! It's amazing! Actually in the past 3 years I've gone through 2 blenders... I love smoothies and this thing blows away anything I've ever had. Yes its expensive and yes its tall but it is a lifesaver!

I also have a vitamix but have it for a different reason. My daughter is disabled and eats via a gtube. She did not do well on pre made formula so we feed her all real food and use the vitamix to blend it! It has been a godsend! I make smoothies and ice cream, sherbet, sorbet, Soups. There isn't much you can't make in this thing. It is going to be really handy for after surgery.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
