I keep Kool-Aid sugar free packets in the car. The ones you add to a bottle of water. Then even if I am out and about and stop to ge****erI have them with me. I didn't like the Crystal Light ones. I must be too much of a kid cause I like the Kool aid ones. They have grape, cherry and tropical punch at Wal Mart.The onlyplaceI have found them.

Jason,  I just had to add that every vehicle we own has a box of Crystal Light to go, or Diet Snapple just in case!  The variety of flavors is amazing and you just have to buy the boring water to have your choice of flavors.  I love the Peach Mango Green Tea, Cherry Pomagrante, Lemonade, Peach Tea, Cherry Limeade, White Grape,....... Well you get the idea.  The generic ones are great also.  I never get bored with what I am drinking.

LMAO at your post! I felt the same way! I carry around different flavored crystal light packets that can be dumped right into your water bottle Snapple also has some great sugar free teas but they are hard to find at the conv store... I feel your pain.. its all sugar sugar sugar or carbonation. Try the Crystal light, they have a ton of flavors!

Thanks everyone for your replies!

I'll have to get a few of the packets and put in the truck with me.  I was so excited the other day, I stopped to get gasoline and went inside to pay.  I went over to the drink cooler for another BORING orangeade and BAM!  Tropicana light BERRY flavor!!  I must have said "OH WOW!!!!" just a TINY bit too loud because everyone in the store turned to look at me.  LOL  I guess I was a litte over excited.

Water with the packets of flavor like Crystal Lite, Ocean Spray (my favorite is ruby red grapefruit), Walmart brand.  I also drink milk -- sometimes I add in Moo Milk flavoring or sugar-free coffee flavorings.  And, of course, I'm a coffee fiend so I drink a lot of coffee (which I am not recommending, just owning up to it).  I drink Starbuck's venti sized sugar-free vanilla latte or cinnamon dolce lattes, or make my own coffee at home.  I usually drink fru-fru type coffees instead of regular old coffee, though.  Always sugar-free, of course ... but not always caffeine-free.  I use half & half or milk, too. 

I just went to Walmart and since I'm kinda bored with what I'm drinking, too, I bought some regular old tea bags.  Guess I'll start making gallons of tea and drink that sweetened with Splenda.  I do like hot tea, too, but I'm bored with that right now, as well.

Something else I LOVE to drink is the low-carb Fuze drinks.  They're pretty good.  And you can also sometimes find really good Snapples -- my favorite is the kiwi-pear.  It's delicious!

I love coffee too...now, but I never used to drink it as a PreOp.  I think it's my "cross-addiction" that you hear so much about.   I can't leave the house in the monring without it!   Oh well, better than liquor or porn, I guess.  Not that there's anything wrong with porn, I just don't have time to do alot of acting anymore!!    (Bow-chicka-bow-wow)  LOL

I didn't drink coffee preop, either.  I loved to smell it as other people brewed or drank it, but I couldn't stand the stuff myself.  I'm definitely in need of a 12-step program to rid myself of it now.  

Yeah, some people get the "sex" addiction -- my husband didn't get that lucky.  lol
