Anyone going to Mexico???



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone,

I need some help. A few years ago when I was on vacation in Mexico, I bought some C-Light which we call Crystal Lite in the US. It is manufactured by Kraft Foods, but they do not sell C-Light (Clight) in the US because Americans prefer the flavors of Crystal Lite they buy here (this is what Kraft claims). C-Lite is so much better because they have flavors like Guava, tropical, coconut, lime and they are all calorie free like Crystal Lite, but really are superior because of the variety they offer in Mexico vs here. They cost 15 cents a package like you buy Koolaid in powder form and make a liter and a half.

The last batch I bought at Walmart in Cancun and I have been nursing my supply for a while. I am all out and I am miserable. If anyone is going to Tijuana or any other part of Mexico for banding or fills, I would gladly write a check to cover the postage and cost to purchase me 40-50 packages. They hardly take up any space at all in a suitcase and I cant live without them. I looked on ebay and some guy in Mexico was selling them for 5 times the regular price, so that would not be an option. If I get really desperate I might consider! LOL If anyone is willing to do this for me, I would be eternally grateful. I called Kraft Customer service and they acted like I had the plague. They claim that their products manufactured for Mexico and Latin America have different product codes and they are not able to tell me where I can buy them in the US. So please someone let me know if they are going to Mexico and I will immediately send $ .

Thanks

      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.

      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!
