Beginner at Fitness. I was wondering if I make a bowl of oatmeal and I marked down the oatmeal for the calories do I add the water to water drank or no?

    Well, it's not already "in on the calories" because there are no calories in water. Don't log the water separately. Log the water you actually drink.

    But, ultimately, it doesn't matter at all, either way you decide to do it.

    I personally don't bother logging my water intake at all. I drink when I'm thirsty. :)

    And it should go without saying that water is ZERO calories!

    Thanks everyone:) I was confused I always wondered if when cooking with water do I add the water intake on water drink.

    I don't think that's the way it's meant to be. I think they are suggesting you log water/liquids you drink only. But it's a fairly arbitrary goal anyway.
