A New Drink Suggestion

Hi Everybody! Have any of you heard of Jello Water? When I was young, my mom used to make it for us when we were sick. So, I thought I'd try it for a change and to add to getting more fluids in. I used Great Value sugar free "Jello" and stirred the box into a 24 oz mug of microwaved HO****er. It's delicious and so many different flavors to choose from. Plus it only has 20 calories, but has 4 grams of Protein. I had been drinking a 24 oz mug of decaf tea every evening and here I have noticed that my teeth have turned yellow!!!! Now I'm gonna have to bleach them!!! So, I had to find something else hot to drink besides tea for awhile. I thought I'd share this, so that if anybody is bored with what they are drinking it might be something you might want to try. Just thought it was an ! Have a great day & God bless! Love, Cindy

I'll try it! Got tired of jelled jello but as a warm drink it sounds good.

Hi Ginakay, Yeah, Jello now reminds me of in the hospital and shortly after getting home, so I think it will be a while until I want to eat anymore of it. God bless! Love, Cindy

Hi Cindy! Sounds good. I'm going to try it! Need to get more protein in! Thanks! Love ya! God Bless, Lynda Phil. 4:8

Yeah, Lynda, I was tickled too when I noticed that it has protein! My tea didn't so this has an added bonus! God bless! Love, Cindy

Hi Cindy! Sounds good. I'm going to try it! Need to get more protein in! Thanks! Love ya! God Bless, Lynda Phil. 4:8

Hey Cindy! Tastes will change a lot over the next few weeks/months. When you can try something cold, keep this in mind. When I get "bored" with my water or tea, I drink Crystal Lite Lemonade. They have lots of flavors, but I am an old fashioned suthun gurl and I like the plain yellow lemonade the bestest. If you have not tried it, give it a shot if you get bored. No protein, but in the beginning.....you are trying to keep from getting dehydrated and then a little variety is good every now and then too. I might have to try the jello thing tonight myself. I am several months out and still learning. It does take a while to get things going. I find I am so thirsty all the time. I would rather drink than eat. So....tonight jello water might be dessert...lol Blessings... Stephanie

Oh Cindy, I thought I was the only one with a mom who used Jello water! She gave it to me everytime I was sick as a child. She has also given it to my kids! I have not tried it yet. I think in my mind I thought it wouldn't work with SF jello and just never gave it a second thought. I will have to try it now. I have also been drinking herbal tea but in the morning. For some reason, hot tea just goes down so easy. I have a different problem with my teeth. The over the counter vitamins kept making me dump so they had to prescribe me some chewable prenatal vitamins to take twice a day. They are purple!!!! And so are my teeth!!! I have been using whitening tooth paste daily and crest white strips about once a week so now they are just violet... . Oh the crazy things we are going through. Did you ever think we'd be having these kind of issues? Have a great day! Love, Jacinda

Hey, I know I haven't posted in a while, sorry- busy w/ 3 kids! After my surgery it was hard to drink water or anything except warm drinks and I started to drink coffee and now it is like I am addicted to it. My teeth also started to yellow, the Crest whitestips are wonderful. People kept asking if I got a new haircut, new glasses or new makeup, but it was my teeth! I think it is time to do them again. Thanks for the warm jello idea. I am able to drink cold water or tea now, so all is good. Have a blessed day, Georgina
