I Hate Water!

Hey everyone! I absolutely hate the taste of water, so i use crystal light. Is it ok to mix it in with my water everyday or should i take breaks from it? If not any advice to make it taste better? Thanks in advance for your support. [=

  • My doc told me I could use Propel as well.. I HATE crystal light!! I don't like the aspertame flavor or after taste it has. Propel grape is my favorite but all of them are good =)

  • I got an infusion pitcher that I love. You put fresh fruit in a basket in the middle of the pitcher and it flavors the water.

I hate it tooo Omg ..seriously sometimes I just drink like 1 bottle water ...Idk what to do ..

I love, love, LOVE propel zero. The grape and black cherry are my favorites. I also love powerade zero. Yum.

Oh I also found sugar free ocean spray packets that you throw in a bottle of water. 5 calories and no carbs.

Oh and last thing, the dollar tree has sugar free koolaide packets as well

I like cucumber slices in my Water or lemon slices. Gives it a slightly different taste.

A lot of people are talking about that MIO that you can add to your water.

It's a struggle for me to get my water in too, but I know how important it is so I just keep trying. SF popsicles and broths count toward your liquids too, I think.

Idk either, try crystal light or mio. I love the crystal light it gives sweetness w/o the sugar. Or you could try propel zero i like the strawberry kiwi &+ it has Vitamins in it as well.

I make a 2 gallon jug of Crystal Light Decaf Tea mixed with the CL Lemonade. I drink 2 glasses of that a day' date=' then I still get in 2-3 bottles of ice Water. I don't get my daily calories in, is my big issue. I am 3.5 months out, and I only get about 500 calories a day, because I simply am never hungry, and I can't force myself to eat. So, I basically live off water, CL, and powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury.[/quote']

Thats exactly how i feel right now and am only two weeks out. I worry about getting all my calories in the future. I never feel hungry or full so im just trying to gage things. I just signed up for my fitness pal and it really helps you track your calories to make sure you get them in. Try checking it out girl!

If you hate water- give it a couple weeks- try again- I love my water now- almost as much as I did pre op!

Water justs doesnt taste good anymore. I add Simply Lemonade, Crystal light or Special K Protein water packets. I also like Light Gatorade and Diet Snapple. Gotta keep hydrated.

I'm with you....I still drink plain water if it's ice cold, but mainly crystal light or mio! Or I make iced decaf tea and add a couple splendas. My dietician said thats fine. It's just important to get my 64oz in a day!

I can't stand plain water anymore either, but instead of Crystal Light I use Mio. It is natural flavoring. I love the strawberry/watermelon flavor. Wal Mart sells the same thing in their Great Value brand for 1.00 less and tastes exactly the same.

Thanks I'm gonna try some of those

;)

I like MIO. They have good flavors and they taste great. There is a slight aftertaste. They are easy to carry around and take to restaurants.
