I only get that feeling with the lemonade. The others go down just fine with no adverse feelings.

I love Krystal Light and all the other brands that have come out like it!! I haven't had that feeling that you are talking about though. Maybe you need to dilute it down a little bit. Some of them are too strong for me if you mix 1 packet to 1 bottle of Water. I use a bigger bottle or if using the 2 qt pack I add some more water to it.

I drink crystal light all the time and I've never had that problem. I don't like the lemonade or orange flavors though. I'm an iced tea person. I also found some lipton diet drink mixes also.

My favorite is lemonade and I have no problem with it. I also love the new Water Sensations which are colorless but delicious. Sorry, can't help....have no trouble downing a whole bottle of the Crystal Light.

Ariel, I have the same problem with Crystal Light regardless of how diluted it is. It also triggers cravings for sugar so I avoid it.

I found popping a couple frozen strawberries and blending with the lemonade Crystal Light made a huge difference. Otherwise, I find it too acidic.

I've put a box of the individual packets in my car for when we are on the road or running around, and I want something to drink. Everyone gets their sodas, and I get a bottle of Water and add my own flavors.

Have any of you tried the Wal-Mart version? At the supercenter I go to, it was not with the regular CL, so you may have to ask where it is.

The black cherry is the best ever! The brand name is Fulfill.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
