Does water count towards calorie intake?

Lately I’ve had 5-10 calories deducted from my available calories.

    That’s weird. Water has zero calories.

    Are you using a database entry for water that actually has calories assigned to it? Keep in mind that all database entries are user generated, and there's some seriously weird stuff out there.

    Flavored water would contain around 5 calories per serving (the zero calorie sweetners are not actually zero calorie) so it could be an entry by someone who was tracking their flavored water. Try a different water entry.
