So, I live water...I really do. However, sometimes I want something else. Crystal Light is ok, but does anyone have any other suggestions? I used to be addicted to diet cokes. I'd have at least 3 Sonic sized Route 44s a day, and more can drinks in between those, so I'd really like to stay away from those. I'm worried if I had one I wouldn't stop. Any suggestions?

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.

I have become a fool for a cup of tea. I just love a cup of tea!

Mango Peach Green Tea from Crystal Light!!! Can't get enough!!

Diet Lipton watermelon green tea is great

I make my own Vanilla iced coffee concentrate, yum! I get my "sweet tooth craving " , my water and protein in (skim milk)

I like powerade zero. But has salt. I been getting vita rain From Costco. It's 0 cal 0 salt. Has different vitamins too different flavors. Love it. When it's cold I like flavored teas. Coffee with choco protien. Every morning

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.
