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.

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.

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....

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!

kenya........I use to be a huge ice tea and diet coke girl. But since surgery all i drink is water water and more water. I keep tyring different things and nothing tastes good to me. Everything seems so sweet to me. So I just drink the water. Which is a huge lifestyle change for me becasue I drank a heck alot of diet coke or diet pepsi. But now I dont seem to care.
Sorry I couldnt offer more suggestions.

I have been using the to go tubes (walmart brand) they have a great peach iced tea and no calories and sweetened with splenda. it also allows me to control how much I pour into my water.(I have become VERY sensative to sweeteners) It comes in a whole veriety of flavors too

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.

i think maybe a "real" juice is what i am longing for but scared to drink. my nutritionist says i cant have regular juices (100% or no sugar added) until 6 months....which i think is a bunch of %*$%@! but we'll see. i am going to the store to see what i can find. Thanks for the suggestions guys!!!
