Just a question about water consumption. If you drink 2 cups of coffee a day, does that count towards your water consumption?

Thanks!!!!

    NO--in fact, coffee is a diuretic, which means it will cause you to want to urinate. So if you're drinking coffee (or tea) you need to drink more water to offset their diuretic effects.
