Am I allowed to do this???

Crystal Light the way it is supposed to be made is often too strong/too sweet for me, so I dilute it more than the package instructs, and find it much more palatable that way.

You know, I was absolutely addicted to diet coke pre-op.  I drank so much of that crap.  Oddly enough, I have barely even thought about it post-op.  I think it is better to just get it out of your system, I really do.

I do like the idea of making your own similar drink with lemon and lime and splenda.  It sounds kind of good, like maybe I'll try it myself :)
