I still can't do plain water. Has to be flavored. For the 1st 2 months or so I could only drink hot things....no crystal lite, flavored waters, nothing but hot decaf tea or diet cocoa , I could drink the no sugar added carnation instant breakfast also. I did protein shakes okay...1 a day. I just barely started drinking Propel, crystal lite, and flavored waters. I didn't drink anything with a straw until a couple of weeks ago. I was afraid to try it, but it was okay...no problems. Good luck! I still prefer hot drinks to cold...I'm not sure if that will change when the weather gets better or not....we shall see!

I was really gassy for about the first 2 months but it did get better and now I have no problem at all with liquids. Believe me it does get easier and before you know it you won't even think about drinking - it just becomes natural.
