Try infused water (lime & mint, strawberry & lemon, etc). Caffeine free tea is good too. Adding flavors (non caloric) is fine - you don't need to drink only plain water. -

And if you don't want the artificial sweeteners, there are a few brands that use Stevia instead.

Add flavoring!!
I add crystal light, and sometimes the self serve koolaid Packets. Both are sugar free.
I can only drink bottled/filtered Water. Tap Water literally makes me gag.

Gordita81 got a reaction from ramona5555 in "You had that fat people surgery"
I have been told by many people that I am taking the easy way out. I tried not to tell anyone what I was doing, except my husband, until I got medical approval. Once I got approved, I told my family first, then announced it to everyone else. For those that say it's the easy way, I just brush it off. My husband, though he says he supports me in this, insists that I just need to be more active and diet more. Despite it all, it is my body and my choice. I am willing to put in the work, just need the jump-start this will give me. Anyone that says this is easy has no idea what they are talking about.

Good morning. After almost 2 years, I finally got medical approval for my surgery. It hasn't really hit me yet. My preop appointment is August 25, hopefully I leave there with a date. Until then, I am reading everything I can to prep myself. I'm so ready to be me again.

Gordita81 reacted to healthier&happier4life in Pokemon Go!
Well, I decided to try it this evening. Walked right out my back door and found a pokemon there! Who would have thought? Went on a short walk and found another one. So, I'm in my 50s and having fun playing with Pokemon. I never would have thought it! I think it will make exercising more fun!
