paxie 0 Posted May 15, 2009 does everyone drink? I don't think I can handle any more aspartame found in Crystal light but egads I need something else besides Water.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jodi_620 37 Posted May 15, 2009 Home brewed Iced Tea sweetened with Stevia instead of artificial sweeteners. I also buy the premixed tea when I am feeling lazy, Turkey Hill brand diet green tea with Gensing and Honey isn't too bad...their other diet teas are too strong or too sweet IMO. I have also developed the habit of drinking hot tea. Pre-band I never drank Hot drinks but I find that a cup of hot tea 30 minutes after each meal seems to relax my stomach.

kastoner 0 Posted May 17, 2009 I have a glass of milk with sugar free carnation instant Breakfast ( I can't stand plain milk), a cup of hot tea-with no sugar, but mainly I drink plain Water sometimes with a slice of lemon or lime added. Oh, yes, and I drink a beer 3 to 4 nights a week after work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malaika 50 Posted May 17, 2009 does everyone drink? I don't think I can handle any more aspartame found in Crystal light but egads I need something else besides Water. I found Lipton makes individuals packets you can add to your Water - in a lot of different flavors - and they do NOT contain aspartame - they are made with splenda. HINT - I also find that one packet in 32 oz of water is plenty sweet enough. They are difficult to find sometimes -- Target is where I get mine and they are with the coffee/teas NOT where the Crystal Lite and other drinks are located. We really like them. Also, my GNC carries Protein packets you can addd to water - you get Protein, plus the flavors are good. I don't use any of it regularly as I am one of those weird ones that actually likes drinking water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kath17268 0 Posted May 17, 2009 I like Water with a wedge of lemon or lime but for a change of pace I have been making homemade fruit waters. Just plop a handful of frozen mixed berries, cherries, peaches, etc into a pitcher of water and let it sit in the fridge. :thumbup: You can also add orange slices or whatever else suits your fancy. Nice change of pace and healthy as I hate artificial sweeteners, they give me headaches.:rolleyes2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bambam 0 Posted May 18, 2009 Once in a while I like Life Water - the 0-calorie fuji apple pear one. It is refreshing, a nice change sometimes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AirKuhl 1 Posted May 20, 2009 I like unsweetened iced tea, and also the zero-cal drinks I pick up at costco, like Vitamin Water, Talking Rain, Propel, etc. But mostly just Water right up until I'm tired of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
