Flavored waters

[Starmaker]

Oh HAPPY FLIPPIN DAY! Safeway has flavored waters, sweetened with sucrolose, (thats splenda right?) theres AquaFina Strawberry YUM! Nothing in it but spring water and flavor, zero carbs zero anything YEY! Nice to have an option for flavor once in awhile! (Sippin on a peach carbonated water right now) Life is lookin up!

Re: Flavored waters

Tell me this is OK..... We can have flavored water and have it count as our water intake? Or is it over an above the water we need to drink every day?

I do put a slice of lemon in sometimes but other flavors once in awhile though.

Re: Flavored waters

I wouldn't drink more than 8 oz and count it toward my water, frankly. But it is a nice and refreshing change!

I was hoping that would be the answer!

Re: Flavored waters

I found something called Crystal Bay made with sucralous and while it was a little sweet tasting for me, I loved the bubbles. They are liter size, so just over a quart and since I hate water, I count them as such. BUT the purest of us would say "it ain't water and shouldn't be counted as water"

Re: Flavored waters

Only thing better than flavored water with sucralose is bubbly flavored water with sucralose.

And one a day has got to be OK

Re: Flavored waters

Folks, its time for me to come clean about the water vs carbonated or flavored waters. I wouldn't have done it on the other forums because...well...they would have beat me! I drink regular water when I am out of lemon club soda only. I always have. because I have trouble drinking alot of tap water. I am losing weight just fine, and have never listened to the MUST DRINK TAP WATER mantra that the purists believe in. I drink whatever water I can...the only water I DON'T count as my daily water intake is sweetened waters. I might have one of those every second day as a treat. I did a test on my body one month and drank only tap water. (ugh it was gross) I lost the same amount of weight as the month before drinking my perriers and club soda's. But hey...maybe I am the exception...but I doubt it. I am saying that drinking your water is VERY important. But I disagree that sparkling or carbonated water is not water or shouldn't be counted as water. Hogwash!

Re: Flavored waters

Might get creamed for this, I drink my water with Crystal Light, generic, cut in halves, so what they say to use on 2qts, I use for all 4 of my daily water. I cant stand the taste of tap water, or the metallic taste of bottled. Or I brew some decaf tea, and drink that. I know it is sneaking in a couple of carbs, but it is that, or not drink enought water. The Walmart brand bubbly is great, but I get going on that and dont stop.
