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.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
