So for the past few days I've been unable to drink water!        Can you imagine?  It tastes soooo awful to me!  The only way I've been getting fluids is with sf popsicles, ff milk, sf jello, and forcing some water into me.  I don't like the Crystal light stuff (as alot of you know as I gave it all away at the last support group!)  I've even tried bottled water and it just tastes like...uh, well, let's not go there!  So, today I went shopping (story of my life) cause I KNOW I need to be drinking more water!  I found some Water Sensations (it's a liquid you add to water...kinda like Crystal light....0 calories, 0 fat, 0 sugar, 0 protein ...nothing in it...but the flavor I got ( mixed berry) is actually pretty ok.  At least it's making the water taste a little better!  Amazing how our tastes change after surgery (I used to drink tons of unflavored water prior to surgery!)  I miss my water!!!!!!!!     Ruth

Ruth I don't like plain water I only drink it if I have no choice. MY FAVORITE ALL TIME WATER IS PROPEL LEMON I do like the other flavors but lemon is my favorite. I can drink about 3 to 4 (16.9 oz) a day. I can't do faucet  water  all  . I even bring the packets with me incase I have to buy bottle water so I can mix it in. If I am really thirsty I will drink bottle water, but not as much. It does have 4g sugar per bottle  so Im not sure how RNYs would do with it? It also now has vitamins. I buy mine at BJ's by the case in mix flavors it is the only thing I drink here at home during DayCare. Hope this helps.  ~~~~ Linda

At my meeting with the dietician she had packets of TRUE LEMON. It's crystal lemon in a small packet, size of a sweetner packet. There's no sweetner in it, just lemon. I  am liking this. They also have True Lime and True Orange. Just enough flavor to make the water interesting, but not sweet. Shaws and Hannaford sell it. It can be found either in the powdered drink section, near the lemon juice or near the Splenda and such in the grocery stores. I only found the lemon in our store. DH ordered off the web. Emily

Thanks to all of you!  I'll be looking at some of your suggestions today when I go to the store!
