Favorite flavor drops?



Recommended Posts

I am trying very hard to get all my fluids in, and I struggle with plain Water. I've tried adding lemon, frozen fruit, etc, but I'm looking for other options to mix it up. What are your favorite water enhancing drops (i.e., Mio, Crystal Light)?

My favorite was the Minute Maid lemonade, but they quit making them. :(

Currently I like the Crystal Light strawberry lemonade the best. I have to be careful as aspartame/Nutrasweet is a Migraine trigger, most of the powdered Water enhancers have it, but the drops tend to have Splenda/sucralose which is OK for me but I have to check. :) The MIO sport ones are pretty good.

@@theantichick I just tried Crystal Light strawberry Lemonade for the first time yesterday and I was telling my friends how good it is.

I get a bunch of the Crystal light singles. Different flavors. And I switch between them so I don't get tired of the same flavor all the time. They have generic packs at the dollar tree. My favorites are pink lemonade and watermelon

OK, so maybe I'm a bit juvenile, but I like Kool-aid drops. They taste better to me than Mio, and plus I get a blast from my childhood.

I suggest Hint Water. You can find at Whole Foods and some grocery stores. 0 carbs, sugar or any additives. They are really good and not sweet like the other flavored waters. I have a whole bunch of Propel that is just too sweet for me.

      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.
