Has Anyone tried the MIO Water enhancing drops??? I have and love them my favorite is the strawberry Watermelon, the fruit Punch makes me thirsty but they are a great alternative to Crystal Light it easier for me to tote that around than 100 little packets of crystal light.

tried them- hated all the ones i tried- made me drink 3 x more than i normally would- the artificial sweetener is not good for you. According to my dietician neither is crystal light- when I need something other than Water i sprinkle a little crystal light and if I already have a pitcher made I dilute it 1/2 and 1/2 water.... helps to kill the "flavor" craving and fills you up better.

I tried the MIO fruit Punch and won't be back. The packaging in no way regulates what a "squeeze" is, so you're left sweetening to your judgment. While some may view that as a plus, I view it as a minus. With packets, everything is pre-measured for me. It's too bad there isn't a liquid alternative that is appropriately measured to take the guesswork out.

I did like the Fruit Punch flavor.

Hate the artificial sweetener taste. I'm gonna have to just remain accustomed to drinking pure Water cause I cant stand the taste of artificial sweeteners, and i find that if I force myself to drink "diet" beverages, I'm almost guaranteed to suffer from a headache soon after. :(

I totally agree with Jimmy James - I don't like the fact that I don't know how much to put in there...and have to test it five times before I get the perfect amount. I'm already indecisive enough without having to measure my Mio!

LML32937, when the Mio first came out my friend and I were in Sam's and we tasted the Mio and it was ok, but I looked and it had aspartame in it and told them that I would have bought it if it had had Splenda instead of the aspartame. Now I see that the Mio has switched to Splenda. Crystal Light also has aspartame and I won't drink it, but if you tried Mio when it had aspartame you might want to try it again.

I love Mio drops! My preferences are the strawberry Watermelon and the Orange Tangerine. Yummy!

You can get crystal lite called "Pure" and it's sweetened with Stevia. I won't use anything with aspertame either.

I love it and I love the convenience of it as well - it isn't as messy as the powders. I wish Crystal Light would do a liquid form too, but no luck so far. The Mio Black Cherry is my favorite and it's one of the Energy ones. It gives me a little nudge when I'm dragging and doesn't make me feel too hyper.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
