Suggestions for drinks (non alcoholic)



Recommended Posts

I'm on my third week and feeling good. I've been reaching my Water intake goal but was wondering other than adding crystal light what other beverages can I have. I used to be a Coke drinker for decades but none at all since surgery. Thank you for your suggestions.

I've been drinking flavored Water called Nestle Splash. It is not carbonated and no calories and comes in several flavors. I do add more plain Water to mine because they do taste sweet! I also put a splash of G2 in my regular water to give it a flavor as well. Hope this helps!

@@carlacv There are quite a few no calorie beverages to try. I've liked the BAI brand flavored waters, their coconut waters are good too! The nestle splash is another good one and I love Arizona green tea.. zero calorie zero caffeine! I'd avoid anything that is carbonated!

I did Powerade Zero and Water for the first couple of weeks. When I finished the 24-pack of Powerade Zero that I got at Sam's Club, I started brewing Lipton Decaf Iced Tea, and I have been having that ever since. It seems more "normal" to me (outside the caffeine).

I drink a lot of hot herbal tea when the weather is cooler, too.

You can slice cucumber slices thin and flavor your Water. I also use fresh mint.you can make a pitcher and refrigerate or make it in single glass. I keep a pitcher of filtered water in the fridge. I especially like it with lemon and lime slices. A you can refill the pitcher for a few days before replacing the fruits.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
