I have the pitcher where you put the fruit/veges so you get some of the flavoring in the water...but how should I count that into my calories on here?

    I just add it to my water count. Whatever calories you might get from the fruit & veggies will be negligible and probably end up counting as negative calories.

    I use the recipe creator and just add the water and the fruit and then set the servings to the number of glasses I generally get out of the pitcher. It's not perfect and it's probably overestimating the calories I'm eating, but I'd rather be over estimating than under.

    Hope that helps.
