Having A Tough Time Finding Something to Drink

I am not a water person and pre-surgery, I'd drink Fruit 20. I can't stand to drink it now. I've tried diet Snapple, Crystal Lite. I can't stand any of it about all I can tolerate is coffee, V8 juice..that's about it. I force water down, but I hate it. Any suggestions. I miss my diet Pepsi.

which crystal lite did you try? I wasn't much of a fan of the stuff til I found the ORANGE flavor...yumm!!!

I tried the Raspberry Iced Tea. My friend gave me Wylers Ice Tea, which is a little better, but still not great. The problem with most stuff you buy is that you have to fix a whole big batch of the stuff and if you don't like it, down the drain it goes. I wanted to try Propel, but all you can get is a 6 pack of it. My husband is getting tired of drinking all my rejects.

Hey Lorraine, I was never a water person either....and when I did, it was Fruit 2O or something...cryastal lite, sf kool-aid have become to sweet tasting...so I have went to plain old decaf tea that I brew myself, and add a little splenda...its great. I also have starting drinking non-flavored bottled water....and it is better after surgery, than before. I did try a flavored Dasani water yesterday, and it was pretty good. If you come across anything wonderful...be sure to let me know. Lori

Have you tried Propel? I was having some difficulty with plain water and the Propel works pretty well for me. Several different flavors. Glad that a wls sister got me to try it. Chris

hi lorraine: perhaps if you consider alternatives such as broth, sf jello, popsicles, sf hot chocolate. i did all of those in my first two weeks. also gained a healthy respect for tea - rather than coffee. there's about a billion kinds to try, with fake sugar of course. good luck to you in your quest. your favorite is still out there. i'm sure of it. happy easter dorthe

They have just come out with the Cyrstal Light tube packets that you add to a 20 oz bottle of water and just shake it up. It saves from having to make the 2 qt pitcher and you can have 3 or 4 flavors to choose from. I am not a plain water person either. I also get cups of crushed ice to munch on also and that seems to help too. Best of Luck.

I have found the Aquafina flavored water to be very good! I find myself actually finishing the entire bottle and not needing to put it back in the fridge for another day. My favorite is raspberry. Hope this helps. Diana

I found Minute Maid Light. A 16.9 oz bottle has 3% fruit juice and 10 calories, 4 carbs, 0 sugar. I like the Mango flavor but they have others. I also like crystal light, tomato juice, and water. Loretta 386/347 -39

Thank you all for the great ideas. I bought orange crystal lite, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet. I did find Lemon Propel in a single bottle, but it leaves a funny taste in my mouth.
