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!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
