Fluids/Drinks

Ok now that summer is upon us I really want lemonade. Is is ok to count Crystal lite and Minute maid Light lemonade as part of my 64oz of fluids a day?? Anyone know? Cause I'm loving the MM Light Lemonade!!! Jess 253/200/140

Hi Jess, You bet! That counts for your fluid intake. Congrats on your weight loss. You are doing awesome. Mona

I like the minute maid light lemonade also. But I also bought a 12 pack of the minute maid tropical mango and it is AWFUL. Does anyone around Lincoln want 11 cans of this disgusting stuff??? Maybe I will bring it to Lisa's post op group on Thursday, and see if anyone is dumb enough to take a can or two! As far as the crystal light lemonade goes... I heard a tip on another list of mixing up a batch and floating 4 or 5 frozen strawberries in it in the fridge overnight. They say it is wonderful, but I haven't tried it yet. Sally

I drink a lot of Crystal lite. I also do Kool Aid sweetened with Splenda. Works great and by doing it yourself you can have any of their flavors. Hazel 257/184/150

Thanks ladies! ANd thanks for the strawberry tip! I may have to try that sometime. Jess
