Juices will have sugar, we were to dilute them wth Water. I drank the low calorie, no added sugar white grape juice.

I know it's against the rules but I couldn't get my liquid in without a straw. I don't have any issues using one.

The hospital gave me Oceanspray Diet Cranberry, so I imagine that is acceptable? Crystal Light is really good too.

I do MIO drops......I like the lemonade flavor best but they have a bunch of good flavors. I don't drink any fruit juices.

There are some 50% reduced calorie juices that seem to rely on dilution with Water, they still taste pretty good. And even some 5-calorie juices that are sweetened with eg. nutrasweet.

There are also some unsweetened green iced teas out there that are pretty good, from e.g. Trader Joe's and Pure Leaf.

And if you don't mind a bit of work, you can steep thin-sliced lemon, lime or orange slices in a pitcher of bulk spring Water in the fridge - the fruit taste is light but all natural and you get the citrus oils from the peel in there too - tastes great with the spring water! http://www.eat-yourself-skinny.com/2012/05/lemon-water-with-fresh-mint.html

My plan allows for fruit juices diluted 50% with Water - though they did limit us to only 6 oz of Fluid that way.

That's what I am having as well. Seems to go down better than Water.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
