When I go into a convience store or even a grocery store I'm challenged by the choices. I'm 5 weeks out today and the dieticians or NUTs as some of you refer to them as(lol) , don't offer very much help other than "stick to the plan" we gave you. The plan calls for water or sugerfree packets in water. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Instead of tea I buy a piece of fresh ginger. Slice into thin strips, cover it and dry it out at 30 second intervals in the microwave then leave it out on paper towel overnight. Then pack into a sealed container. I then add 2 or 3 slices to hot Water, very refreshing and taste's great

Thanks to all. I drank a powerade zero and feel energetic and hydrated. Also a v8 rehydration small drink. And 32 oz water. Great mix for me. Thanks again!

In addition to what everyone says, I also like diet Fuze iced tea. It comes in cans (not carbonated) and bottles.

I get a large cup of ice from sonic. It helps me get fluids in.

I also like infused waters. My favorite is strawberry and fresh mint.

Outside of water I drink home made decaf iced tea, Vitamin water and cherry pomegranate crystal light.

Pacific Organic bone broth with ginger is delicious.

I drink Powerade zero or crystal lite.

I like crystal light peach iced tea

Arizona green tea zero is quite yummy. It does have caffeine so you'll have to up your Water intake a bit. But if you only have one about every day or every other day it should be okay. I only drink about half a can a day.

I'm grabbing drinks at convenience stores all the time....Vitamin Water, Life water, Milk, Bai 5 and/or G2 are always available. In the grocery store I get any of the previous mentioned as well as premier protein, sweet leaf water drops, Arizona water enhancers, almond milk, coconut milk, decaf herbal tea and coconut water.

Mio is my favorite. I just found orange vanilla and it's awesome!

I'm from Texas so I live on sweet tea, of course it's decaf and sweetened with Stevia but it works. I also do one Isopure a day. And, I never and I mean never leave home without a cup and some flavor packs. Not just CL either anything sugar free will do, I found A&W root beer flavored the other day. That way when we stop for drinks or gas I can get ice and a Water or if I'm feeling really fancy a diet lemonade from the fountain drinks. As crazy as it sounds I also only go to big convenience stores like truck stops because there is always more options.

Isopure zero carb makes a green tea. 40 grams of protein, no carbs or sugar. Tasty.
