No offense intended, but "just suck it up" (pun intended)!!!

My coach told me about the 4C packets and I LOVE them! She even gave me one in the office. I am using a few a day (probably 3), but I haven't had the "big" losses I was hoping for, despite being 100% on the P1 protocol. Anyone think this could be why?

Herbal teas and fancy coffee beans?
Last night I too was looking for a change from the water. I was going to make some 4 berry herbal tea (iced), but then wondered if there are trace amts of sugar. Also, is hazelnut coffee OK (using hazelnut coffee beans?) Same issue..do the flavored coffee beans have trace amounts of sugars?

I would just check the ingredients in everything. I stopped using hazelnut coffee since it said it has added ingredients(who knows what that means).
Thank you to everyone who has been writing. I have been drinking water a lot more and looking into the True Lemon packets at the store. I tried Target, but didn't see any.

This sign is at my clinic:
You can make yourself drink more water by putting more of it into your mouth and then swallowing.
Cracks me up every time!

Is Mio and 4Cs ok on P1?
I am having the same problem. I don't mind using splenda and lemon etc., but I am afaid that I am eating too much Splenda--how much is too much? Is Mio considered a freebie?

Splenda, Walden Farms, and Mio are all Sucralose based sweeteners. Everyone has their own sensitivity to it, if you are handling them okay, happy with your losses, and it helps your water consumption, then it should be okay. My coach advised me to limit them to 6 or less per day. Assume each serving is 4.999999 calories and 0.999999g carbs according to her (just under FDA guidelines for 0/0/0 labeling). I believe liquid sweet leaf brand stevia is the only 'true' zero calorie sweetener, or at least one of them.
And i think the flavored teas and coffee are great!
