Aspartame substitute?



Recommended Posts

Hi~

I'm getting ready to start my pre-op diet in a few weeks and was wondering if anyone knows a good substitute for Crystal Light? I need to be able to drink something with flavor but without aspartame. Aspartame gives me headaches and since I won't be able to have caffeine that's the last thing I need!

Thanks!!!

I use stevia. And there is a crystal lite version made with stevia called crystal lite pure.

I used to find it everywhere. Then could only find it on crystal lite website. About 2 months ago there was an online clearance and I worried it was being discontinued. But now I see it in Wegmans.

I looked at a few places today and couldn't find it. Don't have Wegmans here on Long Island :(

I'm going to whole foods tomorrow just don't want to break the bank on drink mixes!!!! Lol

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞
