Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass    |  Beverages I was doing crystal light from day one and i cant drink it anymore. for some reason it gives me heartburn. I've done the diet snapple as well, heartburn with the teas AND juices. So I am trying SF Kool aid which only comes in grape in my local stores. Its hitting the spot right now but i fear i may run out of options. Any suggestions? I have acquired an appreciation for regular water so i am not ruling it out, i just wish i could add some pizazz to my drinks.

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 have a store in my "hood" that sells the sf Hawain Punch. Which I never was a fan of it before, but I buy it for my kids. I found fruit punch flavor in Crystal Light which isn't bad. I'm just hooked on the peach tea CL for now. |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  | Its funny how our tastes keep changing. Initally post op all i could drink was crystal lite ice tea. Then i got sick of it and only liked the snapple ice tea. Then on to crystal lite lemonade, which is very sweet so i watered it down alot , then the rasberry ice...and now back to snapple ice tea and crystal lite lemonade. I hate water so i add what i can to it to make myself drink it. Keep trying different things. IT will prob keep changing.... LittleLisaMarie

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | JUST gotta keep trying till u find sometihng that sits right kenya. I do concern so much heartburn make sure your surgeon knows you dont need to wind up with an ulcer and maybe u need prescription antacid meds or the one your useing isnt working. HUGS have you tried propel? being its more a flavored water it might sit better! good luck and try for flavors you dont normal go for you might be surprised post op those work!

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | What about the V8 diet splash? I buy that occassionally too. But when I drink it, I dilute it with some extra water. Just because the instructions from the nut in the beginning was to do that with juices. But it's pretty good, just a little expensive. |

Thanks for the suggestions guys!!!
