What Is Your New Favorite Drink?



Recommended Posts

My new favorite drink is Water, surprisingly. Ice cold water. I am just over two weeks out and literally everything is too sweet for me that I have to dilute it tremendously so that it practically tastes like water.

I got hooked on 7Eleven's sugar free slurpees' date=' particulary the cherry limeade!!! Then I start adding ice too it. Maybe hooked isn't accurate, ADDICTED is the truth! Lord help me, lol!!! But, give me some ice cold Water and my sleeve and I are content:)[/quote']

Those are carbonated- i'd be careful with that one. :)

SmartWater!! Only bottled Water my tummy will tolerate. I was always a water drinker and could drink any bottled/tap water prior to surgery.....but after surgery, I got nauseated drinking water even if I mixed in crystal light. My daughter introduced me to SmartWater and I have been drinking it for months! Nice, clear, crisp tasting water. So good I can drink it at room temperature. costco sells it cheap ($10.00 case)

I love the strawberry watermelon MIO. Be careful with the sparkling waters, they are full of carbonation and sleeves don't like them sometimes. Can cause a bad tummy ache.

Sure, take 12 ounce bag of vanilla coffee grinds and place in cheese cloth over a big tupperware or something u can out a cover on, then gradually add 6 cups of cold Water, make sure the grinds are covered in Water but still in the cheese cloth, cover with a lid and let it soak 12-15 hours. Then u can add ur favorite extract, I use vanilla lol and it's very vanilla. Use one tbsp or whatever u desire and add to the mixture after u strain the grinds. U may want to use another cheese cloth and restrain into a new bowl. (u can let it soak at room temp. , but refrigerate afterwards. Then to ice it I fill up a 20 ounce cup with one cup skim milk and 1/2 cup coffee mix, add my Splenda or sf Syrup and sip on my way to work. U can make any flavor u desire ;)

I like the Oceanspray flavor packets. Kinda hard to find' date=' but Kroger& Dillons carries them.[/quote']

Ditto on the Ocean Spray packets. They taste remarkably like cranberry juice.

Love nectar Protein Powder by Syntrax. I drink a scoop every Day in a 24 oz water bottle and to me it blows crystal light away plus you get around 24 grams of Protein per scoop. The one I like the most is the strawberry mousse flavor. It tastes just like Frankenberry Crunch Cereal and you just mix it with Water.< /p>

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
