The best was Fierce Mandarin, I only found it twice in my life and it was fucking incredible. I will look for this though.

Been drinking the sugar free Gatorades as a way to cut back. Not even sure why, at this point water is better. Fuck life.

Powerade Zero is way fucking better. Full sugar versions? Gatorade wins hands down, but for sugar free, powerade is really great.

I respect the effort, but how is a zero carb drink going to hurt your diabetes? I'm right there with you brother, and 8 times out of 10, another drink is going to be preferable to water, but that's why you just have to find the drinks that don't hurt the betes! In my house hold that's Powerade Zero, Fresca, Diet Coke, Diet Cherry Pepsi, Coke Zero sometimes.

I believe that despite being no sugar no calorie there is some kind of effect of drinking excess of them.

There have been studies that possibly link then to raised blood glucose over time.

It doesn't make any sense to me that something with artificial flavoring and other ingredients to make it taste like "something" can somehow be the dietary equivalent of water at 0 calories. Seems like bullshit marketing wizardry.
I also don't understand how people find themselves in a situation where they actively think water isn't a good drink. It's crisp, clean and it quenches your thirst. Treating water as a last resort sounds exactly like a heavy drug addiction. That's bad bros.

Yeah I mean I drink water 95% of the time, but many years ago before diagnosis I was that dude that drank soda nonstop and thought water was battery acid. I usually bring one sugar free Gatorades with me, but it doesn't really matter
I think technically it's not 0 calories but they squeeze the ingredients below the threshold where they measure them towards calories. Think I read that before.

I drink so much water it's crazy. I spend half my life peeing I think.

Your body is supposed to slow down functions so you can get a full night's sleep. Nocturia (needing to pee while sleeping) not only wakes you up in the middle of the night it can interrupt REM cycles.
Caffeine and alcohol are doubly not recommended as something to drink before sleeping since they will keep your body actively processing, including waste functions.

i used to like Powerade Zero better, but now i much prefer Gatorade Zero.... Powerade Zero is too syruppy for me...
i too am doing better about just drinking water, tho. my thing is, since chemo, can't manage to drink just straight water with my pills or with meals... i used to be nothing but water for years and years when i was vegetarian, just my chemistry is that fucked up anymore i suppose... certain situations straight water almost makes me gag.
