Sugar-free kool-aid that is. I tried Lemon SF kind today, it tastes just like lemonade, no sugar, no carbs, and just 5 calories per serving. Great way to get down more water, and it was delicious. I'm going to try some other flavors, hopefully they'll be as good.
I checked the nutritional profile and it looks good. Although the sodium in a single serving is not a problem, it could add up to too much depending on the amount you drink in a day and your weightloss could stall.
Perhaps you could make it half strength or glug a glass of plain water every second time.
My Dh used to call kool-aid smacky juice. I we used to buy 20 packets every grocery day. The smell of it now makes me ill. Glad you can drink it though. Maybe you could water it down some?

The grape and fruit punch flavors are really good, and they're pretty strong so I always water them down. I'd never even thought to check the sodium content!
I bought the crystal light lemonade and raspberry individual servings for when I go to disneyland at the end of the week! I tried one and it was also really strong. I got them, not to replace water, but to have with meals if I want something besides water!! I also am planning on bringing some instant decaf ice tea!
I almost always only drink water, but I figured I may want something else looking at all the different choices available at the parks! So I want to be prepared!!
I love diet kool aid. When I was pregnant and had gestational diabetes its all I drank. So odd how when I cant have the "real" stuff suddently diet stuff tastes so good!
