Crystal Light vs Water

**salex142** · 09-24-2007, 07:52 PM

I am having such a hard time drinking plain water, even the bottled waters. The only flavored water that i can stand is Crystal Light. Is is it ok for me to drink it?

I spoke with my dr about it and she said it was fine. I've been doing it now since Feb and have lost over 60lbs...i think you will be fine.

I've been substituting one bottle of Crystal Light/day for one bottle of water for over a year now. My favorite is the lemonade b/c it tastes JUST like lemonade!

Also, lemon water is supposed to slow down your body building a tolerance to Phen, so this is probably helping some too!

I think its ok especially since its got alot less cafeine than other sodas and stuff but id be concerned about drinking a ton of the artificial sweeteners. If you are ok with the artificial sweeteners then it should be ok.

At my last appt I told my Doc that the only problem I was having was drinking enough water...I said after awhile it gags me...he said he does not like plain water either so he even suggested Crystal Light and he said that is what he does.
