It's basically a sparkling flavored water from walgreens there's no sugar fat carb etc. 0 calories. Thanks yall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators ladyshanny Posted January 3, 2017 Administrators Share Posted January 3, 2017 Aspartame is a sweetener so this would be out for Whole30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarahUlm Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 There are a lot of brands of flavored seltzer that only have "Natural Flavors" and Carbonated Water as ingredients. I am currently sipping on the Raspberry Lime flavor from Trader Joe's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do, I drink a gallon a day [weight lifter over here] but sometimes I enjoy flavor ;] I use to use Dasani drops but they have fake sugar so can't use those. So will have to try something different [also my hubs was a big soda drinker so plain water for him isn't his favorite thing though I make him drink it lol] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susanj2870 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Hello all! First, let me say I am so excited to be starting the Whole30 program. Tomorrow will be my first day. I want to give a BIG thumbs up to La Croix water. I have never liked drinking water of any kind until I tried La Croix. It was instrumental in getting me off ALL sodas--diet and regular. I had tried to quit my SERIOUS soda addiction many, many times without success until a friend suggested La Croix. I am happy to report I will be celebrating 1 full year of NO SODAS AT ALL next month. My next challenge is to give up the Sweet 'n Low I have been abusing in tea and coffee! I am committed to doing the Whole30 and look forward to getting off the Sweet 'n Low merry-go-round!

MeadowLily Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I swill LaCroix. I found it during the holidays and I must say, it's all fun. Really. I've tried all the flavors, my faves are apricot and coconut. Some flavors like berry...meh. I can't find the berry taste. The citrus ones are too acidic for my gut on a regular basis. The apricot and coconut settle well. I mix the milder LaCroix's with kombucha. Ooooo, baby. Now that's my drink and it stretches out your dollar. More bang for your bucks.
