Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted June 8, 2016 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.

kins01 0 Posted June 8, 2016 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. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michele1325 1 Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) 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.

Tjwalk 9 Posted July 21, 2016 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. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App Taking capsules and shakes auto correct must have got me lol Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App Oh, and pre op diet lololol Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michele1325 1 Posted July 21, 2016 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! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
