|  Unsweetened Tea? I have a question. My husband has found Milo's Unsweetened Tea made with Splenda. Does it hurt to have a little of this every once in a while. And, I'm assuming it would count towards my water intake since it is basically made with water.

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I drink so much unsweetened tea. I love it. I think as long as it is sweetened with Nutrasweet it should be okay.

| Kathy, thanks for the information. I was just wondering if it "harms" our weight loss to drink the tea as part of our water intake.

| Thanks, Cathy. I was worried that this was going to hurt me. I just wanted something different other than crystal light. I don't plan on drinking it everyday. Like I said, just wanted something different. Anyone else have any advice on it?

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Just so you know, my nutritionist (and I've heard this before) said that if you drink some thing with caffeine in it - it does not count as your daily liquid intake, since caffeine is a diuretic. You can have it, just don't count it as any part of your 64 ounces.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | yes you can have it, but like marie said, it would not count towards water intake cuz of the caffeine, i drink coffee everyday but just make sure i get in that much more water to offset it
