Thrive by Le-vel



Recommended Posts

So I have signed consent for the bypass and I am just waiting now to get my surgery date! In waiting I have been introduced to the Thrive community, all seems pretty awesome but I am curious if anyone else in the Bariactric community is using/has usedThrive before and or after and if they are seeing any benifits to this system? Its seems pretty awesome on paper and its all natural and seems it could be benificial to aid in helping get our nutrients.

I'm skeptical. It’s sold through the company website and via advocates of the program in a multi-level marketing scheme — meaning that people who use the program sell it to their friends. The plan consists of three steps that people are advised to carry out daily. It costs around $300 for an eight-week supply.

Congratulations in advance!

A lot of things look great on paper... but my spidey senses say no to this.

Good Luck 💚

Thrive is MLM/pyramid scheme. Similar to Herbalife etc. Their main idea is not a product but a concept of recruiting as many members as possible. Simple look up on Google would provide more information.

      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.
