    So drinking 2 cups of Diet Soda counts as water intake too?

    I had a well respected nutritionist tell me you can count diet sodas, but you have to count the sodium too. (She also recommended no more than one of said diet sodas a day)

    Personally, the ONLY thing I count as water is pure H20, nothing mixed in. I aim for at least 64 oz. of plain old water every day. That way, if I do mix water with a protein shake or drink some almond milk or a cup of coffee, those fluids are just an added bonus. This helps me stay plenty hydrated and also helps keep me full between meals and snacks.

    So... what if he drinks a glass of water and then chokes down the protein powder? Isn't it the same thing in your stomach as it would be if you mix it before drinking?

    IS ANY WATER ACTUALLY WATER

    I gave up on logging water a long time ago. I never log any drinks that have zero calories. I must be doing this wrong.

    You should see the awesome magical special effects that happen when I turn water into Cola with my SodaStream. Poof! All that water is now gone!

    Yes it counts because the aim is ro drink that much fluid each day. The reasoning behind it is to make sure you are sufficiently hydrated so your body can function efficiently. To stay hydrated simply montor the colour of your urine and make sure its the shade of light straw or below.

    What if it's the color of HEAVY straw? Am I in trouble? Should I see a doctor?

    Does it matter what temperature the water is? I drink boiled water with a slice of lemon and ginger (does this now count as tea or is it still water?).

    Does distilled water count as water too? I mean, it's stripped of minerals, is it not?

    I drink 1/2 my weight in (ounces) water each day... that is just plain water from the bubbler and sometimes I will add a lemon or lime. I also drink a detox tea every morning along with a protien shake made with water that I never thought to add to my actual water intake until reading this thread. LOL Hmmmmmmmm
