Re: Besides Water....

Nature's Promise Organic Apple Juice - they are sold in little juice boxes so sometimes I'll drink that b/c it has a good amount of vitamins in it.

I do the same with the Tropicana Orange Juice boxes - the one with extra Calcium.

Doctor suggested I drink milk everyday - try to get a glass in each day - so, I drink Organic Skim Milk in the morning with breakfast. He suggested skim to maintain a healthy weight.

Sometimes, every once in a while, when I want to live on the edge Chat Icon Chat Icon I order a root beer with dinner - it has no caffeine, well 99% of root beers don't so I just make sure - but it is a nice treat here and there. Chat Icon

Pretty much water but I'll switch it up here and there with decaf ice tea. Lemonade is a good idea to try to switch things up for myself.

Re: Besides Water....

Have you ever heard of Honest Tea? At Target, I found Honest organic fruit juice! They come in little bottles, I got the fruit punch and it's good! They're 70 calories per bottle and they're not too sweet, I think 16g of sugar but that's not bad compared to others out there.

We have a soda stream and make a ton of seltzer. Sometimes I flavor it with lemon. I drink a lot of water. Sometimes I'll treat myself to lemonade. I have one 1/2 decaf medium coffee/ iced coffee in the morning.

I'm trying NOT to drink juice anymore Chat Icon

I was drinking a ton of it before. Orange juice, grapefruit juice, etc. And when I expressed concern about my weight gain my midwives told me that should be first to go (along with any junk food obviously)

I let myself have crystal lite. I drink hot tea regularly.

I also make smoothies fairly often. With just fruit or chocolate protein powder and some bananas <-- tastes like a milkshake almost. Nom.

Also pop here and there. I love gingerale or dr pepper here and there. Mmm.

I thought Crystal Light was a no no because of the artificial sweetener?!

Re: Besides Water....

My midwives gave the okay on specific artificial sweeteners...

To each their own but... I kind of think the whole thing is hype. I don't drink a lot of it...and I will mix half a glass of straight water with it.

I'd rather make sure I'm getting enough water no problem and in moderation it doesn't concern me at all.
