Hi All. I am on my pre op diet and I'm allowed crystal light. Do you think I could just put some ice in the blender and put some crystal light in it and count it as a drink?

That's a good question. I just started my liquid diet today and I'm gonna try that. it is liquid right? Ice is just water.

That's what I am thinking. It is not the caffeinated kind or anything. I am gonna mix one of my bottle packets with a small amount of water - then pour that over the ice and start the blender. Ill let you know if it is good, lol,

My tummy is rumbling and liquid is all I can have tonight.

I don’t see why not. Sounds like a pretty good idea to me!

Well i tried it but my little blender is not powerful and couldn't do the ice properly lol.

I have a Nitro Ninja Blender on the way by Thursday. I'll let ya know how that goes.

I will say that the more water I drink the less hunger pains I have.

Yes, it'll count as a drink for your daily goals. Nothing wrong with making a slushy out of it. I like to mix half ice and milk for my protein shakes to give it a milkshake consistency. Kind of acts as a treat from time to time.
