Crush water enhancer



Recommended Posts

Hi all!

I have a tough time getting all my Water in.

What is your opinion on the Crush Water enhancers?

What have you found to be a good Water Enhancer?

I have found the Hawaiian Punch Water enhancers to be very good, and they have a really good variety of flavors to choose from. If you have a Wal-Mart in your area, they sell them for about $1 per box, with 8 in each box...I keep very well-stocked, since I sometimes get tired of plain Water. These really do help me get my liquids in for the day!!

I usually buy the Hawaiian punch ones but it's a tad too sweet for me for some reason. I bought the crush strawberry yesterday. it's good! I mix 2 packets with 1.5 liters of Water and it's still a little too sweet but not as bad as the Hawaiian punch. (I'm pre-op and not into super sweet stuff....it's probably going to get worse after surgery smh)

Wyler's makes a good lemonade and strawberry lemonade. There's Crystal Light, of course. I also like Propel waters and Vitamin waters.

Pre-op I loved the grape. Post op it is to sugary for me and gives me heart burn. Ho-hum back to sipping my plain boring Water

I still have trouble 3 months out with plain Water...just feels too heavy.

I like the Powerade Zero drops. I find that they are much less sweet than most of the others out there. I usually get the orange flavor by the 6-pack from Amazon (my local grocery stopped carrying that flavor).

I've also bought the Mio orange/tangerine. The flavor on the Mio is pretty intense compared to the Powerade.< /p>

      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.
