I've been living off of unsweetened ice tea mostly. I love black tea so I usually go with that as my choice. Also minute maid makes a 15 calorie lemonade and when I'm feeling a little crazy, ha ha, I will mix some of that in with my tea for an Arnold Palmer flavor.

I find it easier to drink cold Water. I also add orange blossom water to it, love the taste and it's great for digestion

Hi dear, they pick orange tree blossoms and distill them till they get a concentrated liquid (consistency of water) it's delicious in lemonade, water, made as a "tea" with hot water and slices of lemon zest, we also make most of our sweets with it in the Middle East it's also known to aid in digestion.

I buy a Water called "Hint" in my supermarket.

I love Hint - exactly as the label says, it has a hint of flavour, without tasting like bubble gum :)

I ad 2 drops lemon flavored essential oils by Young Living to 16 oz or 3 dropps to 20 oz. What a difference in taste!!!!


Please, please , please don't do this! This is so dangerous. It takes approximately 75 lemons to make one bottle of oil. Just think how concentrated that is. It could be so hard on your newly cut stomach to handle this!

      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.
