Sort of. In my case I was ok with Crystal Light for about 1 week. After that it started to bother my stomach. It felt too acidic. Now at 9 weeks I am diluting it much more and it is ok, so don't throw it away, it might taste ok in a few weeks.

(I switched to Powerade Zero, no calorie Sobe & warm tea first thing in the morning. Now Mio is my new favorite way to drink water. I still drink tea nearly every morning)

I am having the same problem. I even stocked up on it before surgery, because I loved it so much. I also kept reading how that was a go to drink for many after surgery. Not me. I'm hoping that in a few more weeks I will be able to enjoy it once again.

I can't drink it either! Nor can I can drink anything "suger-free". I drink tea, diluted juice, coffee, and water. But honestly tea and coffee (especially coffee) are my favs.

i have been drinking diluted low calorie gatorade. I have a little discomfort when I drink just plain water. I tried the crystal light in water and didn't like it much. Still have some left, I will try it again soon.

There's a PURE brand too that I switched to. I got so sick of crytal light fruit punch...switched to this PURE tropical punch...and only put enough in just to give water some flavor. Have you considered the flavored waters?? Adirondack brand has this white grape flavor that also has vitamins in it, without calories.

Thanks for the alternatives to crystal light. I will definitely try something different, as I used to be able to drink crystal light like crazy.

It's just all chemical junk that no one needs anyway. You are doing yourself a favor not drinking any of it. Try an iced herbal tea or water, water, water.
