Do you find it makes a difference in your weight loss if you drink plain Water vs using flavor packets (sugar-free, calorie-free, and caffeine-free)?

I have not noticed a difference, but drinking more Water is more benficial in the long run. If I crave something sweet, sometimes I mix water with a sugar-free hawaiaan punch packet or crystal light.

I was never a Water drinker so I always mix my water with something! I usually keep a pitcher of Crystal Light lemonade in the fridge and add a little peach tea or strawberry watermelon Mio to my glass before I pour the lemonade in. Try to mix it up so I am not drinking the same thing every day. I also add powder Fiber to my water. I do think that the more water you drink the less hungry you are or become.

​I drink about 12 cups of hot tea or iced tea a day. I brew my own iced tea with Decaf bags and my hot tea is either. I use sweetener, though. I over drink and pee all night.

I always used Splenda but now mostly use Truvia because it is suppose to be better for you.

I do about 1/2 Water and 1/2 sugar free Water options. Have not ever had a problem or a stall with either or. The largest stall comes from not getting enough fluids in during the day.

Both have been helpful.

I drink a lot of plain Water and usually one low calorie Gatorade. I find if I drink too much powder drinks it irritates my mouth.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
