water/juice

ok dumb question.....I hate water and I hate flavored water, so I use the SF hawaiian grape mix.  to get my 64 oz of water in a day.  My mom is telling me (never had wls or any info on it) that I can't use that as my water for the day.  She said it's no****er it's juice.  I'm thinking she is crazy, or am I the crazy one?

If it's SF and it's those "crystal light" like packets that you add to your water, yes you can.  I use crystal light all the time.  I get tired of plan old water.  Sorry mom, this time your not right.

Have a good day.

Thank you I knew that didnt make any sense.  Your right Mothers don't know everything lol. 

If it's sugar free and caffeine free, it counts as water.  I only use Crystal Light-type stuff now---I don't like plain water since my wls.  Your mom isn't crazy---she just doesn't understand what you need to do now.

Pam,

It DEFINITELY counts as water!! I also drink decaf unsweetened tea with splenda which is a nice change. I have a tea maker and I get the decaf tea bags to make it! Just another idea if you like iced tea. I prefer flavored water and decaf tea to plain water. I am with Julia on this one!!!

Have a great one!
