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.

      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.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
