Addicted to Crystal Light-plain water gags me



Recommended Posts

Yep, that sums it up, I'm addicted, that's all I drink all day long, nothing else. I know about the minimal caloric intake but I can't stand plain Water and really don't like lemon in water unless I have lots of splenda in it to make lemonade. Plus I'm always on the go so I do water bottles and mix Crystal Light on the go packets. Sheesh!

I love Wyler's Peach Tea... way better than crystal light peach tea... I like their pink lemonade also.. I really don't like plain Water either.. I try to drink a few bottles through the day but somehow it makes me hungry? I totally wait for 45 min. after I eat to drink anything so its not that ...

I am a big mio fan the liquid flavors, but watch out, I sadly discovered that they are not so good for your teeth, loaded with citric acid. My dentist noticed unusual wear on my teeth and asked if I was a grinder or if I drank alot of fruit juice..........no to both, but then looked on the ingredients for mio - citric acid...........booooo

Try drinking Water with fresh lemon or cucumber. Not only tastey but also good for your skin. Im my opinion its ok to use mixes but I think you should also try to get in some plain pure water. Our bodies are 80 percent water. In saying that I meet my water goals and then I drink up to two low calorie gatorade. 40 calories a bottle. I freeze them and shake them up and it is like drinking a slushy.

Also the Ocean Spray mixes are really really good.

The Ocean Spray diet cranberry with lime has 5 calories per 8 ounces, but it is really good for a change. The calories are from real cranberry juice concentrate.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
