Aspartame



Recommended Posts

Mio sweet tea is my favorite! Not sure what's in it but since using it I have doubled my Water intake... so it works for me!

I have also served it to friends, HA, and not one person has caught on that it is not real sweet tea.

Trick: I keep a bottle in my purse and while out at a restaurant I will order unsweet tea then squirt some Mio into my glass.. um um good!

I second the MIO. I have MIO everyday and have tried several different flavors. The sweet tea and peach tea are the best in my opinion and the Green Thunder taste great while giving you that little extra. I kicked energy drinks and started using the MIO energy. They actually seem to provide more boost.

drink crystal light 24/7.....only side effect is my little short

legs heading to the potty all the time.... :)

You would really be in heaven if they would only come put with beer flavored crystal light.

I too drink alot of crystal light, but I am not a fan of the aftertaste of aspertame, and it can sometimes lead to heartburn for me. I have recently found that there are a handful of flavours made with splenda, so i keep my eye out for those.

I really like truvia I got use to it in my tea.

I really like Truvia as well - I prefer it over the other sweeteners and if I'm not mistaking it's all natural.

I believe so. I was told by my PCP that I really should only use stevia or truvia... Anything with via at the end lol.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
