Good Morning all,

I'm about 4 months out.  I'm growing tired of drinking jus****er.  Do any of you drink unsweet tea with lemon with no artifical sweetners.  If so, did it effect your weight loss progress?

Thanks in advance for your response.  Have you told your sleeve how much you love and appreciate it today?

Kindest Regards,
GRITS!

I drink tea all day long, in all its forms.  I drink hot tea with light vanilla soy slender and two Splendas, I drink green tea, I drin****d tea, I love tea and it has not slowed me down one bit.  Reached goal in 6.5 months and have been maintaining for the last two years.  I say, enjoy your tea.

Before surgery, being from the south, I lived on sweet tea and I mean sweet.  Now, I live on tea with splenda.  I make a 4 Liter pitcher with the lipton cold brew tea bags and get the big bags of baking splenda and scoop to sweeten the pitcher of tea and that is what I live on.  Before this, when I came home from work I would hardly drink anything because I started to get sick of crystal light in my water and mio's.  I have continued to lose and have not had any issues.

Mio is another option... they have lots of flavors, including sweet tea... they're 3.50-$4/24 servings... u just squirt to taste in ur water...walmart also has a generic version and i don't notice a difference and it's $1 cheaper :-) it's zero cal ... i feel like i've been a sales rep on here... lol

Thanks so much for the feedback ladies! I REALLY appreciate it!

I drink tea and coffee with no detrimental effect to my weight loss.

Post-op I could not tolerate plain water but if I mixed a little lemon, crystal light, reduced sugar apple juice or almost any other flavoring I was able to drink lots of water.

Not drinking enough liquids did hinder my weight loss progress. So long as I'm hydrated the weight loss is great.

Good luck,
George

I drink half sweet half unsweetened tea no issues

Unsweetend tea has had no effect on me. I cant speak on with artificial sweetners, as I cant stand that stuff. Brewed flavored ice tea is great....blackberry is my favorite flavor.

 Just given a shout out for Peach Passion, my fave.  I'm on my third box since surgery.
