The new lime refresher drinks that just came out this summer , if you order the lime as a grande it is 50 calories. There is some sugar but so far has not bothered me. If I want something hot I have tea and put in my own splenda.

How does it taste? I had decaffeinated iced coffee delicious. Haven't had decaffeinated coffee yet.

Starbucks has Decaf coffee but sometimes you have to wait for them to brew a new pot. I love coffee and drink two and sometimes three cups a day. I was worried about having to go with decaf but I was very pleasantly surprised with any number of decaf k-cups for Keurig brewers. Very close to being as good as the caffeinated coffees. Highly recommended!!

I am a coffee addict. I always get skinny caramel machiattos made with soy milk. or regular coffee with sweet and low. If you like energy drinks the Monster Rehab or Rockstar Recovery drinks have no sugar and are not carbonated so they work fine also the non carbonated Go Girl drinks work well.

I was told the refresher has caffeine in it but I haven't actually checked it out. The barista handing out free samples told me that.

Yes it has some caffeine but nothing like a cup of coffee. It tastes very refreshing to me.

Yes it has some caffeine but nothing like acup of coffee. My nutritionist said as long as i was drinking enough Water a cup of coffee once a day was no huge problem. I stopped pretty much because I like mine in a latte which adds calories I don't need right now, so for half the calories I get a refresher and I think it is very refreshing in the lime flavor.

I too bought a Kurig and enjoy the decaf celestial teas and decaf donut house as well as the decaf Starbucks kcups! Amazing options and the Kurig became one of my favorite appliances lol

      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!!
