I drink a lot of those flavored packets that you put into your water bottle. 0 calories and 0 carbs, so no problem with anything added to it. I also drink crystal lite, there are so many flavors to choose from. Decaf tea sweetened with splenda is also a good Water source. Just be imaginative and you will come up with plenty to keep you from being bored with just water

I drink Milo's Splenda tea mainly. Also, plain Water or Crystal Lite packets in water. I do orange juice every once in awhile. I took a sip of my dad's coke today, and it was so good, but can't have those.

I use the Crystal Lite drop ins, Vitamin Water and Protein Shakes. I have tea w/ splenda, but put Almond Breeze Unsweetened vanilla in it. It is 40 cal a cup, but don't use a cup for my tea.

Water with Crystal Light. Fuze Slenderize is 10 calories for 8oz; 2 carbs. I usually just stick to Water though.

I drink Water, crystal and propel mixes added to water, coffee with sugar free Creamer, iced lipton tea with splenda so no cal or carbs either. Obviously my portion of milk a day, but I try to do that for Breakfast with a Protein Shake. I had a sip of a slushi the other day of my sons. It was way toooo sweet, I won't be doing that again. I was a Pepsi addict before they told me that my cholesterol and triglicerides were over the top, no more, and that's good because of the band too.

I like the Target brand packets to mix in my Water bottle. Some of the flavors are amazing... Cherry limeade, tangerine strawberry and grape are my favorites. They also have lime margarita, strawberry orange banana and fruit punch. They are delicious. I always have one in my pocket or backpack.

Vitamin Water Zero and Welch's Diet Black Cherry (only 10 cal per 8oz serving). Either of these you can find at a convenience store.

I drink quite a bit of iced tea. Over the years I have become picky about the brand. My fav is lipton tea bags.

I take a 2qt. pitcher and fill it about 2/3 full of hot Water, let 4 teabags steep in it for a couple hours and then add 5 packets of sweet-n-low and fill the rest with ice. I make a pitcher daily.

I drink a lot of Water and lo-cal drinks like iced tea and Crystal Light type drinks, but I don't freak out about having a higher calorie drink. I just add that to my running total of calories for the day.

I drink coffee every day with cream and splenda. I also drink a protien shake made with soy milk every morning when I wake up, which keeps my protien up and food intake down (keeps me full) . I am still scared of soda champagne and beer

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
