Hi guys! I have been taking Miralax here and there to stay normal. I have been mixing it in to my smoothies but I am off the smoothie train for a while. SO I was just curious to know what yall drink it with. Thanks in advance guys!

Sometimes I mix it with my hot Lemon Tea or just Water. It doesn't really have a taste.

I mix it with Water too. Sometimes I put it in crystal light.

Crystal Light "Sunrise" flavor; the sunrise is orange juice flavored and too intense by itself, the miralax mellows the flavor for some reason. I like miralax the best but I think a dependence on it led to my recent bout of ultra low sodium and potassium levels, that ended with me in the hospital.

I put it in crystal light. I don't think it changes the flavor or consistency. Sometimes, I put it in OJ. I got some OJ that is 50 calories for 8 oz. I rarely do that though, mostly put it in the crysal light. Sometimes, I get a drink called PlumSmart. It's for digestive health, and they have a light one. I get that sometimes, and put the miralax in that. That keeps me very regular!! :) Sometimes that is too much and I just do the PlumSmart.

I just mixed it with Water, or grape juice. I would always allow it to just sit on the counter for about 10-15 minutes after the initial stir in, and then there was zero texture. I never really noticed it having a flavor, but back then, not much tasted good/right anyways.

I do as Sarah doe and mix it with Crystal Light. I use a really tiny jelly jar, you know one of those little 2 OZ (???) jars - anyway they are real small. Surprisingly the Miralax can mix with that tiny amount of liquid and still not be detectable.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
