I am 4 1/2 months post op and I have lost 70lbs! Yay for ME! Here is my problem. I don't get in enough liquids. I don't drink coffee or tea, I am getting sick of water, getting board of Crystal Light lemonade, LOVE some of the light juices (too many wasted calories and carbs) and I don't know what else to do. Anyone else in the same situation? What can I do? What can I drink? HELP!!!! PLEASE!!!

Hi Ilyssa, Have you tried Hood carb countdown dairy beverage? It comes in chocolate and regular flavor. I think it is yummy. It's low carb and has a good amount of protein in it. Tavia

Ilyssa, Maybe try some real lemon or lime in your water, it gives it a little sweet taste without adding to many calories.. I like to try all the different flavors of the crystal light but my fav is fruit punch... I wish you all the best hun ~Hugs~ p.s. I love the Hood carb milk and choc milk, just waiting for it in Strawberry....yyuummm.... Debra P 285/193/125??

I get hooked then i cant do the item anymore: here are some things i have gone thru: PROPEL (melon, strawberry kiwi flavors), DIET snapple Apple, MINITUE made sugar free passion drink, SF koolaide, crystal light iced tea and now im on deit snapple peach tea. ITS weird how i go thru phases and get bored with something never had this before. Of course i enjoy water too but i dont drink coffee.

Not all stores carry the Carb Countdown milk. There's only one around me and it's in a local chain. Try a web search. Becky Jean

I got it at King Kullen and I have seen it at Stop and Shop. I still haven't even tried it yet, I hope it's good.
