I don't have any personal knowledge/experience but just looking online would make me stay away from these pills. Even on the websites that sell it, it gets bad reviews and some of the ingredients could be considered dangerous (leading to dehydration and heart palpitations). It has high levels of caffeine and B Vitamins (that make you feel flush and hot).

The top two ingredients are stimulants, there is a risk of side effects that are linked to stimulants such as insomnia, nausea, jitters, anxiety, and headaches. Mentha haplocalyx is used because it is a diuretic and can flush excess Water out of the body, making it appear as though fat has been lost, when it is only temporary Water weight loss. Pausinystalia yohimbe is a stimulant and aphrodisiac. WebMD.com says, “Yohimbe, taken by mouth, is possibly unsafe.” It has been linked to rapid heartbeat, kidney failure, nausea, and seizure.

I'm wondering why you would be considering something like a diet pill instead of talking to you doctor to get good solid medical advice. I doubt any doctor is going to tell you this is safe to take after your sleeve.

Why does it say it doesn't contain stimulants when it does, in fact, contain caffeine? Wtf. Stay the hell clear of crap like that.

If you want to break out of a stall, go back to basics: liquid for a week, then purée, etc. The whole point to spending the time and effort and money on surgery is to avoid crappy pills and "quick fix" schemes.

Also, remember these pills are made for people who have ACTUAL STOMACHS. You no longer do. So don't do it; if it passes straight through to your intestines, it could do damage.

CALL YOUR DIETICIAN if you want dietary advice to break a stall. You're in a whole different league here.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
