Water Flavoring, What's Your Favorite?



Recommended Posts

That sounds good. Where can I get it?

I ordered the sample pack to try a bunch since I wasn't sure of I liked it. Got it at mybariatricpantry.com though I'm sure other places have it too. Haven't made it through all the flavors yet...but the caribbean cooler was soooo good. Then equally the pink grapefruit, which i was excited about, sucked :) some people love nectar, some don't...the sample pack might be a good way to start. Came in like 3 days.

I use a little bit of Mio, just a very light flavoring. I also like Propel Zero. I tried the Syntrax Nectar lemonade and it was awful!! Just so dreadful that I'm afraid to try the other flavors. It seems that a lot of people like nectar tho. IDK I also drink Decaf coffee & tea with Splenda : ) I love iced coffee!!!

I like Crystal Lite Mojito Flavor and Margarita Flavor. I also like Celestial Seasonings Bengal Spice Tea. It's great both hot and iced. Because its decaffeinated I usually have a fullest in the evening after work. It's so soothing and with that spicy flavor (cinnamon, cloves and such) it tastes sort of like a treat without being sweet.

Rainydayz, IIRC, the iced tea flavor has caffeine.

Maybe that's why I like it! LOL! I also like the Mio energy Green Thunder flavor.

I just googled it- Mio says their ice tea does not have caffeine but the energy ones do.

I'll look next time I go to the store. I didn't buy the Mio iced tea because it had caffeine in it, if I remember right. I saw where the website said it didn't have caffeine as well, but it also says that none of their flavors have caffeine, and all of the energy ones do have it. That's really tough for me, because I won't touch caffeine to save me at this point. I went through 9 kinds of heck pre-op to get off the caffeine! LOL

I just bought the Syntrax Nectar Lemonade and Grapefruit, and I like them both. They do have that slightly proteiny taste, I added a nice big slice of lemon to the lemonade and thought it was refreshing. I plan to try the same thing with the grapefruit tomorrow.

Is this syntax stuff a shake or is it a lighter drink? I'd really like something to take the place of Isopure. Isopure doesnt taste bad but I really could live without the dry feeling it leaves in my mouth.

It's powder, but makes more of like a juice (depending on how much Water you add) than anything else. It does NOT give me the dry feeling that the isopure does. I'm still drinking isopure top, but enjoying the Syntrax better (syntrax is the brand...nectar is the "line" of powders). Highly recommend the sample pack, since people seem to vary on the flavors they like. I ordered it from mybariatricpantry.com and it came on only a few days

You all are so awesome! I went out and purchased a bunch of different flavors of Mio and I really like it!! I even flavored some FF Greek Yogurt with the berry Pomegranate and it was AMAZING!!

Thanks again for all the suggestions and advise! :)

I like Mio, the berry flavor. I also wil do either fresh lemon or lime. I cut up a lemon or lime and add it to my Water pitcher. It gives water a natural bump in flavor which helps me get through more of it.

I used to use CL fuit punch but then from others on this site, discovered MIO. Love the strawberry/watermelon flavor. FYI Walmart has the same as MIO in their Great Value brand and is at least a dollar cheaper. Drink, drink, drink!

      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.
