well i not having a good day

I am just not having a good day I know it will pass but I am sitting here crying. I can not find anything really I like to drink is there anything that I can try I have drinked tea but I cant stand the taste of sweet n low now I could before I have tried juicy juice and dont like that. I can only drink water right now it is the only thing that really helps me. I also can drink like crystal light but you can only drink so much of that . before you get tried of it. if anyone could help me please emal me. love tina

hey tina, sorry that your having a bummer of a day, but this to will pass. i love peach tea, you can get crystal light, or great value from wal-mart it is just as good put a lot cheaper, like 1.68 a tub. also have you tried fruit2o, it's pretty good. it is in the water section at wal-mart. i hope this helps, take care. hugs, amanda

Tina, Try splenda in your tea. It's incrediable how much it takes like sugar. It's more expensive than sweet n low, but much better. How about coffee, any luck there. I put my powdered protein in that twice a day and it's almost like a treat for me...almost. Hope this helps in some small way. Hang in there, it does get better. Hugs, Bobbi

Tina, I hate to hear your having such a crapy day. I also drink propel and Coolaid made wit splenda. Maybe this will help. This will pass, Just hang in there. Hugs Debbie Moya Dr. Baker 9/22/03 354/157/147

Sugar free popcycles help too. You are in food "culture shock". This gets easier---promise! Joy

Tina, sorry about your bad day. We've all had them. My biggest problem was finding something to drink. Water tastes yucky after a while and I've tried everything I could find that wasn't carbonated. I like Crystal lite and there are a lot of flavors. But what I found I like the best is a lemon-berry slush from Sonic. Takes me about 30 to 45 minutes to drink a small one and I don't eat the berries but it sure satisfies my thirst. Not drinking the diet cokes was what I missed the most! Have a better day!

Glen, Doesn't that have a lot of sugar in it???? Vicki

Hi Tina (((((HUGS))))) For the first few weeks after my surgery, I was in a BAD mood, depressed, disgusted with everything! Greatful to have had the surgery, but that didn't change the fact that I was PISSED that I was so limited in what I could consume. It WILL get better, just hang in there!!! I thought I would never get used to it, but now at 4 months out, I can't imagine eating or drinking like I used to!! It's amazing how you adjust. Tammy 373/292/160
