As of now I have been drinking these in place of soda but after surgery this is a no no. What does everyone drink post surgery to mix up the Water?

Water with crystal light mixed in sometimes but I try to stay plain water with lemon or lime juice.

Water, VitaminWater Zero, water with Crystal Light, Trimino peach protein water.

I'm not a huge crystal light fan. I do like lemon and limes in my water. Another thing is I have a fruit infused pitcher which helps.

Are powerade zeros okay?

I drink isopure, vitamin zero water and propel. Loved plain water before hand but not so much after.

I like the Isopure and then the premium protein.

I drink water with a tiny squeeze of mio. I drink 96 ounces of water every day. I found that having a routine of always having my tall 24 ounce cup next to me I can get 4 down. Also at least one premier protein chocolate every day lol.

I'm 4 months post op and Water still hurts me, so I eat a lot of ice...I buy bags of ice from Sonic...

I also like to freeze Powerade (it has B vitamins) and I drink "aguas frescas" cucumber water....they're a lot of sugar I'm sure, but I need something to drink...I drink very little eat the ice mostly....

I'm down 55 pounds since Nov 20....I look amazing! ;-D

I have to drink 100% juice mixed with water per my Drs post op diet for week 1. In addition I am having herbal tea, broth, and G2.

Prior to surgery I loved plain water. After surgery I haven't been able to tolerate plain water. I drink Propel water and the peach flavor is my favorite.

Plain water. I may add a 3:1100% apple juice ratio, or a capful of Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar(good for digestion). My favorite thing is to suck an Altoid while drinking water. I'll also occasionally drink unsweetened hibiscus or peppermint herbal tea.

@glittereyes

Thanks for sharing about not being able to tolerate plain Water....I thought I was the only one...it's so weird not to be able to tolerate it...I can only eat lots of ice and drink sips of other stuff....

I hope I can get back to drinking plain water some day...

I appreciate everyone's response. I love plain water but I know after several months I will need to mix it up a bit.

I gave up soda 4 ½ years ago. Since then except for the occasional coffee or tea I pretty much only drink almond milk or water so my body was already conditioned to drinking plain water. In the summer I sometimes put cucumber and mint in the infuser, but for the most part I'm a water gal. Other than the first week when I had to work to drink anything, I don't even think about it anymore. I just fill a bottle and always carry it around with me.
