Jamie Murray

We have this weird thing in our family where we don't like many drinks. My dad only liked coffee, scotch and Water. In that order. My niece only drinks milk, Water and coffee, she's 15. I only drank water, milk and diet coke. I am so thankful I love water as much as I do. flavored water or teas or coffee I don't like. I tried crystal lite but it burns my stomach. Gives me the worst indigestion.

I like raspberry green tea and the pink lemonade

It's all natural flavor packets my nutritionalist recommended to help me increase Water in take. They sell them in ShopRite and Target etc etc. Amazon. It's sweetened with beet juice and stevia leaf, which again are natural and do not leave an artificial aftertaste.
My coworkers are crazy for the watermelon flavor. Even our resident stick in the mud loves it.

I like the Bai drinks, specifically the Molokai Coconut. The flavor is a bit concentrated for me, so I Water it down, which is good because a bottle lasts 2-3 times longer and I drink more Fluid.
5 calories. Sweetened with stevia (but doesn't have that weird aftertaste).

I don't like the artificial sweetener either but if I'm lacking in my Water by mid day I seem to get a bottle of Water down faster with the sf grape flavor. For some reason I can't drink it at night and not everyday either. I drink a lot of lemon water too.

fruit infused Water. I can't tolerate the artificial sweeteners at all since surgery.
I add frozen fruit and lemon or lime slices to Water at night and let them sit in the refrigerator all night.

Scheduled for this Monday the 13th. Nervous but excited. Lost 18 lbs in pre-op and I didn't think the diet was too hard to adjust to.

Had several similar responses like you are not fat,you wear your weight well,are you really that heavy and my favorite while at the gym...well if you do more of this (exercise) you can lose and dont need surgery. If that was the case id be like 190lb by now because i spend 4-5 days aweek at gym. Hang in there and stay focused. And good luck.

Got my insurance approval and still sched for april 13th i meet doc on the 8th to sign forms etc.

April 13th in morgantown wv with Dr Tabone

Well 1 week away and im excited,nervous etc etc
