Flavored Waters - Buying In Bulk?



Recommended Posts

Drinking Vitamin Water Zero or Sobe Waters make it so much easier to get my 64 ounces of water in per day, but they're so expensive! Does anyone buy in bulk online for their drinks? (Not specific to those two brands). I'm going broke here.

I use Mio drops. You can flavor individual bottles to your taste at that time. About $3.78 for enough to flavor 20 bottles at Walmart.< /p>

I always got my drinks in bulk from costco. Its the only place I really find all the drinks in mass amount. I drink this stuff called ecodrink. Its a Multivitamin drink comes in berry and orange(packets). It comes with a 16oz bottle. Its really good but strong flavor if not diluted(I refill it 4 times and split 1 packet in quarters) so I get 64oz and its easy to transport

Not sure about ordering in bulk online

Walmart also has their own brand of Mio for a dollar cheaper than Mio

I swear by the Mio drops when I'm at work and I keep a pitcher of Crystal Light handy at home. I just can never get my Water in if it's not flavored. It helps if you keep an eye out at the grocery stores for when these items go on sale. Publix (here in Atlanta) frequently has Crystal Light BOGO so I can get 2 of the canisters for about $3.50.

Gatorade, (HAS to be G2) is awesome. They have this raspberry lemonade that I have fallen in love with. It's how I get my Water in. Gatorade seems to always be on sale and one bottle takes me two or three days because I use it in between waters. Just a nice change of pace. I also think the milo is great. Do does my surgeon. Those were his 2 biggest recommendations to help me not get overwhelmed with the water I now was supposed to drink. Good luck!

Has anyone tried propel

I love propel. I also like the Lipton diet citrus green tea. I use Hawaiian punch flavor packets I get them from the dollar store or the diet snapple packets they're awesome. Also for my Protein shakes they have yoohoo flavor packets too in strawberry. That adds some variety and they're all only 5 cal <5 a packet for all of them.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
