I am new on MYFITNESSPAL but looking forward to using this website so it can help me reach my goal of losing 50-60lbs. I just started walking the neighboorhood this week and eating right, also my biggest down fall is drinking water so I am just trying to see what suggestion ppl may have for me to reach my GOAL.

HI Purvis! I'm Heather, and fairly new to the site as well. I know how you feel about the water thing... I'm a diet coke JUNKIE, and water is not exactly packing nearly as much flavor. You should try the flavored waters, just not the carbonated ones. They really do help get past the "flavorlessness" of water. I have a long term goal here... so even though I dislike fish... I'm eating it instead of a burger.. almost daily now! I've cut out all bad carbs, which was sooooooo hard to do. But as stubborn as I am, trust me, if I can do it, YOU CAN TOO!! Stay positive! It's a must! Have a great day!!!0

Thanks Heather!
I will try that and I am eating bake Fish as well. I will be staying positive because I am only 32yrs old and this is not good for me with Diabetes is a major thing in my Family0 -
I do the flavored packets for my water intake. I really don't like water, so this helps me to get in my water.
Crystal Lite lemon tea is good, walmart has some brands too.
Be careful of the aspertaine in the packets, the sweetners. Some people say it doesn't work for them because of the sweetner in the flavored water, but remember everyone is different.
I have a lot of weight to loose so I will use it til I can just drink plain water.
I used to drink diet Dr. Pepper but now I rarely drink any kinds of sodas anymore.
I'm new here to, so hi and welcome, and good luck with your journey.0 -
Thanks SugaDumplin,
I will try to Crystal Lite, because I need something to get me to drink the 8 glasses of water. That's alot for a person that doesn't like water.0 -
Welcome!! I too am new, I'm Amy. The pink lemonade from Crystal Light is awesome and refreshing. Good luck on your journey!! The people here at MFP are wonderful and so very supportive, hang in there and reach out whenever you need to.0
