Personally, I think I am better off just following my program and using my highly experienced medical team as a resource. My NUT, PA, surgeon, and even my PCP and personal

trainer have given me plenty of information/advice for being healthy.

I don't need to spend even more money on supplements.

I am not trying to use it for additional weight loss or anything. When I took it pre sleeve, my hair grew like crazy and my energy levels were through the roof! It was pretty awesome! I have a follow up appt on Friday and I'm going to ask about it.

I LOVE my Thrive! I asked my nutritionist about it and she was happy to hear I was taking it and glad that it's in shake form. Vitamins in pill form make me sick, but my Thrive shakes are very agreeable with my tummy (I'm pre-surgery). And yes, it's really helped with my hair and it contains Probiotics which has kept me from having diverticulitis flair ups. I plan to continue Thrive after surgery because it's done so much good for me and my husband the last two years.

Are you taking your thrive during your previous op diet? I was worried about the caffeine. I am taking capsules ang more ingredients shake, but no Patches, was wanting to resume shakes at puree stage.

Yes, I am taking everything thru pre-op diet. As soon as I can start keeping down the shakes, I'll resume the Thrive as well. I'll be breaking open the pills and putting them in a shake to begin with, then whatever is puréed till I can take them regularly again. Just had this discussion with my bariatric nurse today. Start my pre-op liquids on Friday!

      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!
