Depending on your team of course, but I had Powerade zero! I use the 32 oz bottles, and that helps motivate me! There are lots of Water enhancers like Crystal Light out there too.

I use all sorts of things. Crystal light, mio, lemon, lime, caffeine-free teas for iced-tea, frozen berries, Orange slices or few chunks of frozen watermelon in plain Water with a few mint leaves is very refreshing. Celestial seasonings makes a ton of caffeine free teas. Just make a pitcher and add ice it's great.

Your Fluid requirements can be met in several ways other than just plain Water. Crystal Light is one of them. Milk qualifies. The liquid component in Soups count. Also the liquid in Protein shakes count. So do tea and Decaf coffee.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
