Today makes 2 weeks since my surgery... I woke up feeling horrible..nauseated and just blah!!! Im wordering why I did this!!!! I haven't been to the gym, I have no motivation and I'm just to tired to go!!!! I know we are suppose to walk, but its been 100 degrees+ here everyday almost and if not its raining....

Ugh......

I need something to get me over this hump....

Ditto on the mio. I saw some on sale at Walmart and stocked up only to come home and almost gag. I much prefer crystal light (and the Great Value cheaper one). That Zero Vitamin water is great too.

I will try the vitamin water next... I just feels so blah today.... I hope this is a 1 day thing....ugh...

I love the Crystal Light lemonade flavor. But, I cannot stand a whole packet of it at once. I usually do half a packet for 24oz of Water, anymore than that is just overkill to me.

I'm a plain Water girl, but DH loves Vitamin Water - specifically a flavor called "XXX" which is a mix of acai, blueberry and pomegranate. Target had it 10 for $10, and get a $5 gift card. He bought 100 bottles. He drinks about 3 a day. He says they have a light flavor (most mixes or flavored water are way too overpowering for me), and aren't very sweet.

Have you tried any of the newer crystal light flavors? They're based on popular alcoholic drinks. Margarita, mojito, appletini... there may be others. The girls at work drink them all the time.

Do you like tea? You can brew some tea and add any extract or syrup to it. Rasperry tea, peach tea, blackberry tea, etc. Do you like peppermint? Brew tea 1:1 black tea bag to peppermint tea bag. Then add in some lemon, or frozen lemonade concentrate. That's a "must have" summer drink in my house. (I don't like it but everyone else does).

Do you like chai? You can make chai (water) or chai latte (milk). I make my own chai mix so that I can do it way less sweet than what you get in the stores. When my band was slipped, I lived on it with skim milk. And the milk has good Protein, too. (Doubley since there's powdered milk in the mix.) I can get you started with a base recipe, and then you just tweak the spices to your preference.

There's a newer flavored water product called HINT. It's kind of hard to find, but it's not to sweet and calorie free. Our Whole Foods carries it, and I've seen it at Sbux. http://www.drinkhint.com/products/

Hope you can figure out something that works for you.

I had the same problem. I was at my doctors today and told her that I was afraid of dehydration and she said it was ok For me to drink the Wendy's real lemonade but water it done half/half and really I would have done that if she didn't suggest it because things seem to be doubley sweet since my surgery last week. She also said to drink regular Gatorade but watered half/half as well. I cannot stand artificial sugar so she said this was better than nothing and since I am not a sweets person I needed to get a bit of sugar anyhow. You should ask your nutritionist

ugh... I woke feeling decent... ate..and now im so nauseated and burping... which I havent done since having my surgery...... ugh...
