Christine

Christine, Hello hun.... I have been trying the Crystal Light and I rather like it, this will take the next 4 weeks to get me off of Diet Coke but I think I will be ok.... I don't know much about the koolaid but I think you can just purchase the regular and instead of sugar you can use Splenda right? I think it might be less money that way..... Well take care hun and have a great day.... ~~huggers~~ luv ya.... Debra P

I use to be a big time crystal lite drinker but after surgery I really can't take it, so I just opt for water it was easier but I am board with it and want some flavor, I tried the crystal lite again but is heavy in my stomach so I tried the kool aid and I love it and no problem with it...thank god.... It might change for you too with the crystal lite.....and yes do stop the diet coke..... you have a great day.... and oh how I love my ~huggers~ Christine

Debra I used to be a cokeaholic--Coke & Pepsi that is-- BIG TIME. Crystal light was great with helping me break the habit, It will take several weeks. I used to have many bottles in the house at a time because I would go through sometimes 2 liters a day on my own. Now I only buy one bottle every now and then just to have on hand in case someone drops by and it will sit for weeks without even being opened. I don't even miss it anymore! Good luck! Stay strong you CAN do it girl! Hugs Marianne

Morning Christine and Debra Ohhhh Im a big time Koolaide drinker, Tropical punch is my favorite, I just add a bit more water.......alsoooooo loveeeeeeee GRAPE........YUMMMMMM YUMMMMMM !!! I also drink a nice tall glass of Iced Tea.......Really really strong !! Also counts as water if its decaf I believe. I am not a big fan of crystle light.........I have tried um all.......just cant find one I really really like !! The little pouches you add to a bottle of water are VERY VERY handy tho !! Ok......back to work for meeeeeeeeeee Take Care All........Ummmmm...Friday is in site !!!! Woooooo Hooooooo Brenny

Hi my Brenny I never drank it before but I probably won't stop drinking it now.... I use to love the Lemonade crystal lite but my pouchie doesn't care for it but my old stomach did.... Have fun at work and enjoy your day..... Christine

I am an avid Crystal light drinker as well as my entire family now! We broke the soda habit! Anyway, try one decaffinated ice tea with any other flavor crystal light and fill with one gallon of water. I will mix my decaffinated tea with: Raspberry ice, raspberry/peach, orange, grapefruit, lemon, crystal light drink mixes. Adds a different flavor to your iced tea as well as some zest. Try it you might like it! Mmmmmmm! Hugs Marianne

Wow it sounds great maybe if I add more water to the crystal lite I will be able to drink it thanks for the idea with mixing it to decaf tea..... you look marvalous Marianne keep up the good work.... Christine

Hi there my angelette I hope you have a great day too. and have you tried the sugar free kool aid....if not give it a try.... Christine
