Sugar free, carbonation free drinks

There's not many out there. Sometimes at a restaurant when I don't want Water, I can get Light Pink Lemonade but what else is there? Unsweetened tea I guess.

Is it weird if I get a water and add Crystal Light to it?

What do you drink when you don't want water?

@Tssiemer1 WHEN I GO OUT I WILL TAKE A PACK OF CYRSTAL LIGHT WITH ME AND ADD IT TO THE Water. IVE NEVER HAD ANYONE LOOK AT ME FUNNY OR SAY ANYTHING. iVE ALSO SEEN A LADY I WORK WITH ORDER WATER AND ABOUT 6 LEMON PIECES ADD SPLENDA AND MAKE HER OWN VERSION OF LEMONAID . I DO NOT DRINK WHILE I EAT BUT I DO GO TO RESTAURANTS AND NOT EAT ONLY DRINK. ( LIKE WHEN OTHERS ARE HUNGRY BUT I AM NOT. ) AND ITS NICE TO HAVE SOMETHING OTHER THAN WATER TO DRINK.

Sorry I was not clear. I go out with my friends or co workers and have a protein shake before and order nothing at all. I'm pre op. Those protein shakes make me very thirsty though.

I like Crystal Light but most times just drink water. I cut out all caffeine too so don't do tea or coffee.

I don't drink when I eat...ever. I still wait the 30 mins before and after BUT when I do drink anything it's always water with flavor drops added or coffee. That's It. I'm boring. Oh and sometimes sugarless tea. :) not much help huh?!

I love lemon water but if I didn't I would bring my own drink and ask for a glass of ice. My favorite flavored water is sparkling ice.

@@Veronica_mm I drink fully caffeinated coffee, but you should check with your own medical team for their instructions. There is no wls-wide standard advice when it comes to coffee and tea.

Ok ty @@Bufflehead

I see nothing wrong with adding crystal light to your drink. I carry mine in my purse at all times. If anyone questions you just explain. I am sure they would understand.
