So I tried Thrive, the 3 step system, for the first month and thought, this is pretty expensive, how would the average person afford it and is it even worth it? I have fibro condition and thought that would be a good test. In the first month, I can only say that I felt a bit more clear-headed and had consistent energy. So okay, pretty good but I wasn't blown away as I had hoped to lose some weight and had been following eating and activity guidelines. My family member convinced me not to give up too quickly so I gave out the money for month two. At the end of the month I discovered some clothing was getting looser, and I had lost around 5 pounds although gradually over two months, so still not too impressed. Month 3 I continued, and I think the vitamins got me through some weeks when my energy was drained. A naturopath I see was very interested and I showed her the list of ingredients and she has been very supportive as I have low iron, D and thyroid. I do notice that I feel nauseous if I take the vitamins on an empty stomach so I take the shake at the same time as I put almond milk in my Thrive shake. So I am now into Month 4, have lost 7 pounds (not very impressive perhaps but given I have inflammation and low thyroid maybe notable). Anyways, I am not moving to the Duo patch with two parts and the weight loss improvements. I will see what the outcome is and report back.
Excellent company to be a part of! The CEO's give back SO MUCH to their employees and customers! I highly recommend being a part of this booming company!
I have been using the DFTs, shakes and pill packs for almost a year and then all of a sudden this past month my body decided to not like the patch any longer. I have 5 patch rashes and all I can do now is wait for them to go away. It's a shame because before the rash, I absolutely loved the energy I got from the patches so I was so good about using everyday. So I am not really complaining about the company but just that I know I am NOT detoxing and that's why I have rashes. I also cleansed the area well before and after application and did not wear for more than 8 hours. I am sad because like I said I really liked the energy. I do think there is something more to the rashes than what we are being told about "i't's only detox and that's a good sign." Then why didn't I have those rashes when I first tried? Just weird. Just not for me I guess. But if this review helps someone else, then that is why I posted. I know there are more out there who have the rashes but don't know where to post. I found this site by googling! LOL
I am reading a lot of these review where people are not happy with product. It takes 8 weeks for your bodies nutritional gaps to be filled. I was a skeptic too at first. I have energy and weight issues. I gave it a try and even though I did not see #'s coming off, I was seeing inches lost. I had less cogfog and more mental clarity. By day 15 I started to feel the energy that everyone was talking about. This new found energy allowed me to move more, which resulted in me being able to lose #'s. DFT DUO came out and this has been a lifechanger for me. Not only do I have energy but I have had to buy new clothes. I thrive for free because I shared with 2 others who are now Thriving with me - I only pay shipping. Yes everything is done online - support does not work weekends but they get to the online support tickets that are filed quickly. I looked at 4 months of pictures the other day and could not believe the transformation that was occurring. THRIVE gives me the Energy to work out and is helping me with cravings. I LOVE IT and will ALWAYS use it. In regards to lifestyle mix. Yes there are only 16 packets in box as its designed to take 4 days a week for 4 weeks. If you want to TONE, there is a tone package which gives you enough for a full lifestyle mix everyday or you can do what I do and take 1/2 a mix everyday.
My day is complete in the first 30 minutes of my day EASY EASY EASY
1. Take my lifestyle capsules - they jumpstart my day
2.30 minutes later I drink 1/2 of mix in almonds milk
3. Apply my DFT
DONE!
Ordered samples, received a box full of items instead. I logged into the "Cloud" and cancelled my credit card info through their 3rd party payer Pioneer. Yet they charged me $302 on auto debit AFTER I Cancelled my account not once but twice. They capture your CC info and once they get it its theirs to use how they wish. I had to cancel my card and order a new one. As far as the products, they are total CRAP. At first I tried samples through a promoter and thought I had more energy, so much that I could not sleep. Then I learned that I had rashes and high blood pressure. When I asked the promoter what was going on he told me it was "ALL IN YOUR HEAD"... well, now it is ALL IN THE TRASH! Don't waste your time with the MLM SCAMS- Countless FB posts of promoters lying about how great they feel and how rich they are... they are not getting rich folks, they are promoting poor health choices... like the poster says above, get out and exercise, smell the fresh air, save your hard earned money and dump these clowns.
I was promised I would receive a notification 3 days before my Auto ship on 6/25, I did not, so I got on my page and cancelled it for the next month. My consultant apologized and offered to purchase my products from me to prevent the headache of returning, we set up a date to meet up and she stopped responding all together.
So I set up a return for my unopened box, sent it Certified mail through USPS and the return was received on 7/20. On 7/25 I was again AUTO SHIPPED! I messaged my Consultant... Still no reply. I was out of town, so I returned the unopened box as soon as I got home, also sent certified. That shipment was received by their facility today and I still have not received a refund from my first return.
Besides all the hassel and loss of money from Auto Ships, I stopped using the products because I was breaking out in hives and tried weening them back in one at a time but they make me feel nauseated, and burn out around 3pm. My rash re-occured after building back up all the products so I determined this product is not for me.
Customer Service is terrible.
Thrive is a life changing company. The people truly care about health and wellness. They are always there to answer questions and encourage others.
It honestly boggles my mind when I hear a Thriver go on about how they "hate to put junk in there body." It's pretty hypocritical of any Thriver to say this. Then again, most of there statements are hypocritical across the board. Maltodextrin, surcalose, various "Gums", Bioperene, the large amounts of highly processed gums, and "natural" sweeteners. Sounds pretty healthy right? Might I add that almost every product contains some form of Caffiene, appetite suppressants, sleep aid, and pain suppressant. Now with the 10+ products they have, do you think it's healthy to keep stacking these on top of each other? How much White Willow Bark are you consuming? Do you even care? Probably not. Just take a leap of faith right. One of there criticism points made by promoters is you can't knock it until you try it is all built off of a fallacy. The fact that you can have 0 experience in the supplement field and then day 1 promote it should tell you something about its promoters, its down right dangerous and scary. I've seen countless medical claims or suggestions handed out by promoters that are illegal in the MLM world and against company policy. The mindless "entrepreneurs" that promote this product is comical. Please stay far away!
Answer: You would have to ask your Dr. that's what I did before I started.
Answer: This happens alot and they totally screw u on the refund. Check out the 199 complaints on BBB site. It's listed under LeVel Thrive. Promoters say they have no complaints and share some link to BBB for Thrive but the word thrive is not what they list as. Its a big scam. They say return the stuff fraud stuff that shipped and then still charge u shipping to send back, restocking fee, and take a percentage off so u get like half of the fraudulent charge. If card was charged and nothing came in mail they won't help. They keep saying it says it shipped send it back over n over.
Answer: It should be a clear backing on your patch. And it peels right off
Answer: Caffeine is an inhibitor to the formula that makes up the Thrive Experience. Staying away from extra caffiene & sugar along with drinking more water helps it work. I haven't touched coffee or sodas since I started 29 months ago. 28 of which I've been Thriving for free with the refer 2 rewards plan.
