Yacon has no calories?? You sure about that? Its a south American tuber. It has lots of inulin which is a fructose derivative. Read the label Id be amazed if it said zero calories. Might say zero glucose or sugar but that’s not the same as zero calories.

Michael recommends sparkling water with a slice of lemon or lime. When we were starting out [6 yrs ago tomorrow!!], we drank that at dinner. Very satisfying. Early on, I couldn’t get my head or tastebuds around plain water. Then, when I realized that ‘hunger’ masqueraded as ‘dehydrated’, I began to drink 16 oz of water with ICE to get me through the lunch-time of no food. Now I look forward to my just plain tap water. Tastes change.

@robertshaw – on a side note, I’m also did not like water very much.

Tips for making water more appealing.
1st – use a good filter (I actually filter my water twice, I’m sensitive to what ever they put in our water here to keep it clean and filtering it once still leaves me with an irritated throat. So twice is nice for me.)

2nd – I found that adding a slice of lemon, lime, orange or cucumber was very helpful. (don’t leave it sit too long as in filling up a water bottle and putting a slice, it can become bitter after a while b/c of the pith *the white part on the citrus*) if you do want to put it in a water bottle then just cut the center out so that you don’t have any white on it and that adds a flair of flavor that I quite enjoy. *dont eat it when you are done unless you want to count the calories, although I’m sure they are minimal for a slice.

3rd – is seltzer water with a slice of something (I love this, its my jam…) and I feel fancy when I drink it!

I thought I would add my two cents here! When I started drinking lime or lemon flavored seltzer water, I found it to be very filling. I prefer it to plain water and it has taken away my need for an evening glass of wine. That saved me a lot of calories!
