Drinks that are not carbonated?

Oh, and slices of cucumber in the pitcher of Water is very refreshing.

Hi. I am at 10 months out and I still get nauseous with plain Water So i make iced tea all the time. I use the passion Taizo Tes. I brew it hot and then pour over ice. I also like the Goodearths sweet and spicy. Again , i bre it hot and then pour it over ice.

I'm 2 weeks post-sleeve & Water tastes really weird. I've never been a crystal light fan, but I LOVE the sweet tea flavor--not sweet tea with lemon, but just sweet tea flavor.

No sugar added hot chocolate makes me feel better on these cold days

I'm an ice Water kind of person. juice is too sweet. Don't like coffee or tea, or flavor drops. And have sworn off soda for good. DH is different. He dislikes plain water but will drink it with flavor drops (Mio, Dadani, Crystal Light, etc.). He will also drink a few Diet Pepsi/Coke or Coke Zeros a week. He also drinks coffee mixed with a Protein Drink daily. He also drinks a Protein drink or two a day.

I like iced tea with splenda in it instead of sugar for a sugar free sweet tea. Especially when I go out to eat.

I couldn't tolerate plain Water or artificial sweeteners for 4 months. I drank pedialyte, Gatorade, Powerade, Sobe Lifewater, Vitamin Water, Decaf herbal tea, milk, almond milk, coconut milk, coconut water, dilute 100% fruit juice, V8, and Sweetleaf Water Drops contain stevia, so I could use those.

My current favorite beverages are Bai5 and Ocean Spray Pact, which both use Stevia and/or erythritol.

I'm 8 days post op and organic coconut Water has been a lifesaver because regular water has been making me feel really really nauseous.

I dilute it down to 1/3 coconut water, 2/3 water.

Same here - regular Water sometimes has a tendency to make me nauseous, even just to take my meds in the mornings. I want to drink it, but just can't "stomach" it. Sorry, bad pun but couldn't resist. I do find it interesting that so many people have the same trouble with water. Feels good to know it isn't just me!

I gave up diet soda and sodas in general almost 3 years ago, and refuse to go back to diet anything to drink. I sweeten my hot tea with a little honey (doesn't take much to do the trick) and usually get a half & half tea - half sweet/half unsweetened. I am trying to get myself down to all unsweetened, but it's been a struggle. After giving up diet sodas I felt so much better and with all the janky tastes/smells I've experience since my surgery, I just want to stick with the stuff that I can get down and not have to resort to sugar free. I've never liked Splenda and barely tolerated nutrisweet. I have managed to compromise and use Monk Fruit sweetener in my coffee but that's it.

When I first sleeved I really could only tolerate hot/warm liquids. I drank a lot of Decaf and herbal teas. I sometime will mix the two of them.

Now I drink some iced tea (decaf), some Chik FilA diet lemonade that is watered down but by far I like the MIO liquid added to Water.< /p>

My co-worker who banded 6 years ago drinks either decaf tea or water with a splash of OJ.

I love plain old Water so does my tummy. I will sometimes drink chamomile tea. Never was a soda or flavored drink fan even before my surgery. But was a big fan of calorie laden dessert like coffee beverages. On rare occasions I may have a cup of java with cream and stevia( if I want it sweetened) post surgery. I still love a good chai. Not the coffee shop kind but a good Indian restaurant kind. That I don't need to sweeten because it gets too sweet. So that's my treat a cup once every month.

I do keep a few bottles of Powerade or Gatorade in the refrigerator incase I get leg cramps due to strenuous exercise. Haven't had leg cramps post surgery. It's just a mental thing.

I was sleeved 9 December and I have found that since surgery, anything remotely sweet tastes awful to me....so Crystal Light is out. Instead, I drink unsweetened teas, such as the Winterberry blend from Teavana. I usually brew it over ice using their "Perfectea" maker. The flavoured teas are delicious, even without a sweetener!

Grape Gatorade - coffee tea and homemade hot cocoa Protein Drinks is what I drink and I find for myself Water doesn't always agree - sleeve can be a bit finicky
