Is this a 0 pt drink?

[artsyfartsy]

I got the Crystal Light Lemonade mixes to do up. Looked good since it said only 90 calories on the pkg. Came home and did the slider on it and I figured out "0"? points? Is this correct?
I was thinking Water was the only 0 point drink we were allowed to have besides (plain tea and plain coffee).
Anyone else drink this? What do you count it as?
Any other 0 pt drinks? :confused:
thanks

All my Crystal Light mixes list calories as five per 8 oz serving definitely 0 points. . Diet sodas are 0 points. Sparkling water, plain or mixed with Da Vinci SF syrups are 0 points. V-8 is 0 points. Boullion and many kinds of broth are 0 points.

Wow thanks SFCatWoman...
Great to know. I did remember that diet coke was only "0" but I try to limit my intake of that too. For some reason if I drink too many diet cokes I bloat up.
By any chance is there a low sodium V-8 juice out there? I'm afraid to try them and the blow up like a balloon. I for sure react to too much sodium intake. Not sure if because of thyroid or just the way I am.
Never heard of Da Vinci syrups before...what are they? Where are they? What are they used for?

Thanks for the tips!
Gotta love this site
thanks SE

SE - There is now Diet V8 Splash which is also 0 points. You have to make sure to get the Diet though. It's very tasty too and comes in a few different flavors.

here is the Da Vinci syrups site. They are pricey, but delicious & come in many many flavors. If you hang around the boards enough you'll see lots of posts about them!
Not sure about a low sodium V-8
Good luck!

Are there any stores or distrbutors that carry the DaVinci syrups?
Or is only available via the website?
These sound awesome...
I can't wait to search for recipes and treats to use these with!
Yahoo...

I found the DaVinci Syrups by the coffee in my Super Walmart.

I have found Da Vinci Syrups at TJ Maxx. Make sure you get the sugar free kind or else they will cost you points.

By any chance is there a low sodium V-8 juice out there? Yes, there is a low-sodium V-8 juice. I've not bought it, but have seen it when buying regular V-8.

Crystal Lite is definitely a freebie!! Water and Crystal Lite are pretty much all I've had to drink since starting WW. Many days, half my water requirement is used up by Crystal Lite. I just wish they'd make CL with Splenda instead of aspartame and I'd feel alot better about drinking it so much.... Diet Rite, any diet cola for that matter are also 0 point drinks. smile.gif

Is the 7-11 Crystal Light Slurpee 0 points too then?

[Leanne63]

According to my leader at WW, it is a 0 pt drink.She told us if we can't do water, then do the Crystal Light.

Leanne :D

Low Sodium V-8...you should be able to find it right next to the regular V-8. It is a little bland, but it does the trick!

I like to buy powdered Crystal Light, mix up a pitcher, and pour into empty water bottles for single serving sizes. It's very refreshing when you want flavor without the carbonation of diet soda!

[artsyfartsy]

Great idea TexasMom.
I'll try that for the kids.
They love the CL too.
Thanks
