Hello I was told that I could not drink crystal light while on liquid stage due to it having sugar. I wanted to know if anyone knew or recommended any other sugar free Water flavoring that I could buy at walmart or target?

Also I would like to know as I was told I could have sugar free popsicles also durning my liquid stage that pedialyte popsicles were the ones to take I would like to know if anyone has also been told this and if regular sugar free popsicles did ok for you ...

Sugar free Jello I'm seeing in the liquid stage to stay away but was told by a person who had this done already that jello was ok to eat in this stage any one know if it's ok to have jello?

I was also told to stay away from skim milk but after seeing a list on here during the liquid stage I see skim or 1% milk is ok i am being told that skim milk has a lot of sugar in it and stay away from this. I know when I have my Protein shakes I like to use milk instead of water but am now unsure of which one (milk that is) to use...

Any feed back would be much appreciated I am getting banded April 12th

Propel Zero is GREAT. I love the Lemon, Grape, and Strawberry Kiwi. They sell it at Wal mart. The list I have from a friend who previously had lap band states sugar free popsicles and sugar free jello during the liquid stage. I am not sure about the milk, but I do know FAT free (0%) milk is the best as far as calories, fat, and sugar intake. Since I have tried Organic Milk, I prefer it's 0% better, and it lasts longer as well as healthier. I hope this helps. Wish you the best on your banding!!

I belive that Crystal Light is sugar free. At least I've Always thought it was. Yes, Jello and popsicles are considered a clear liquid. If ur on a full liquid diet then milk is ok, but if its a clear liquid diet its a no go. Milk has lactase which is a milk sugar and totally healthy. If ur dr says sugar free, im sure s/he doesn't mean milk. U need to look on the ingredient list for ur Protein powder cuz alot of them have sugar..

Good luck

Marci is absolutely correct about Crystal Light. I am looking at my Crystal Light natural lemondade packs that I drink daily, and it reads sugar 0 g. It is also listed as one of the items you can have on liquid diet, and do I believe is she correct about the milk. There is a difference between clear and full liquid diets, so make sure you confirm which one you should be on before drinking the milk.

I meant and I do believe she is correct about the milk. Have a great day ladies.

I try to stay away from Aspertame as much as possible. Have you tried the MIO flavors? Some are very good. Easy to use, and sweetened with Splenda. You can carry them in your purse, or keep them in your desk at work. I order water at the restaurants the give it a quick squirt from the MIO bottle.

Walmart is the best place the buy it.

Well. Where I had mine band which is in Austin tx,they actually changed to full liquid the first week,and soft the 2nd week.But I didn't know until I had my first visit after surgery:-(
