mstrina27 0 Posted March 23, 2008 My absolute favorite is the Crystal Light fruit Punch. Rasberry Ice-Tea Crystal Light is second place. I make pitchers of it and my kids love it too. They don't even realize that it doesn't have sugar in it. My oldest is chubby so I'm trying different things to keep her weight down. You know actually I tried Wyler's Light and OMG they are so good.. and no heartburn or reflux either... The Fruit punch is to slap someone over..lol... & the pink lemonaide... ahhhh i'm getting thirsty now..lol:thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hastings 3 Posted March 23, 2008 I love the Wal-Mart version of the low carb drinks. They are great. I love the orange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MacMadame 81 Posted March 23, 2008 I tried a Capri Sun to do thingie today and no heartburn. Then I did a fruit Punch Crystal Light To Do and I'm getting heartburn. It's just so weird. I'm going to try using hot Water and see if that makes the difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kris9678 0 Posted March 23, 2008 I love Crystal Light myself although a friend has advised me that it makes you retain Water. I don't drink it often as I drink more unsweet tea than anything else! I would like to start but I am afraid that I will retain. Anyone notice this at all?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

destiny79 0 Posted March 24, 2008 he is so awesome I love that guy and he gave me 2 free fills cause my new insurance won't cover them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jwgr 0 Posted March 24, 2008 I feel the same. He is the best... Where are you from in Texas? I'm from a small town southwest of Fort Worth, Glen Rose it's a very tourist town by Granbury. I travel about a hour to see him but it is so worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
destiny79 0 Posted March 24, 2008 I am in Arlington only a few miles from Fort Worth, I work in Hurst near one of his offices Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jwgr 0 Posted March 24, 2008 I go to the Hurst office for everthing. I feel the same way as you do. He told me that whatever it takes he will make sure that I lose weight, even between the first few fills. It does not surprise me that he would help you with your fills. Did he do the fills or did AIGB? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donna D 1 Posted March 24, 2008 Crystal Lite is made with aspartame. I have heard many negative things relating to aspartame. Have any of you tried Nestea in assorted flavours. It is made with Splenda which is a natural dirivitive of sugar. The Wal Mart brand is also made with Splenda and is delicious too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StLouisGal 1 Posted March 24, 2008 The aspertame in Crystal light is probably causing the heartburn and the Fluid retention. It effects some people that way. I love the peach Iced tea flavor but I usually only drink one or two per day because I try to limit my aspertame consumption. I wish more were made with splenda.

Sue40 0 Posted March 24, 2008 I get heartburn from the lemonade flavored drinks, but not the iced tea. In fact, I'm drinking Crystal Light iced tea right not. I've never heard of aspartame causing Fluid retention. I can tell when I am retaining fluids (the ankles show it), and there is nothing there. Carbs DO cause fluid retention for me (nutritionist agreed with me, not sure why it happens though). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brandy~ 2 Posted March 24, 2008 I have a question - I'm addicted to Crystal Light Lemon-Lime and whenever I vacation in the States I can't find that flavor. Is it available outside of Canada? I have seen it at the Safeways here in my town.. I haven't tried that flavor yet though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
angelsoul 0 Posted March 24, 2008 My favorite is the Wal-Mart version of Crystal Light in Grape. YUM!!! I'm with you on the Wal-mart brands. They are WONDERFUL! (I was surprised)... my favorite is cherry and pink lemonade! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
