I am going to try that idea. Cucumber and mint Water sounds so good. I also do 1teaspoon of lemon juice and 1 tsp splenda to give it a lemonaide flavor. :)

Crystal Lite. I LOVE the natural tea with lemon and the classic orange.

This is from the Prevention Flat Belly Diet book.

They call it Sassy Water and it is very refreshing.

2 liters or about 8 1/2 cups Water

1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger

1 medium cucumber, peeled and thinly sliced

1 medium lemon, thinly sliced

12 small spearmint leaves

Combine all ingredients in a large pitcher and let the flavors blend overnight.

I think I will make up a batch for Saturday.

Has anyone tried those MIO drops you add to Water bottles? I always see them but have never heard anything as far as whether or not they are good??I end up grabbing what I know lol

Yes, the Mio is good. I actually put a little of the lemonade kind in my tea instead of lemon wedges.. I love it :o)

The fruit punch MIO and pink lemonade are good. :) I was a southern sweet tea junky before surgery so I wasn't impressed by the MIO Sweet Tea flavor.

I bought the mango peach flavored mio and OMG!! I am in love. I havent had a carbonated drink or juice since! Just squirt a bit into my water bottle and ur helps the Water go down so much better!! And it's sweetened with sucralose..better than aspartame

      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.
