    I don't worry about coffee. I drink mine black and it's 2 calories for every 8oz. Other than coffee I only drink water. I would rather eat my calories. Much, much more satisfying that way.

    I count it all. I drink 128 oz of water daily & sometimes 8 oz of grapefruit juice & 8 oz of a juice that has no added sugar. I need the extra calories. I can't consume all my calories by food alone on days when I burn a lot of calories.

    I pretty much only drink water, coffee and tea. I log the coffee because of the creamer, but my tea tends to be herbal and caffeine free so it gets added into my water intake.

    Anything extra (ie. red wine and beer :drinker: ) gets logged.

    Coffee in my diary each and every morning, rest of the day I only drink water and one green tea for my night time drink! Very occassionally (sat/sun pm) will have a bacardi and ginger ale or any other drink is certainly input into my diary. Doing this for me, so if I cheat, I'm only cheating myself! :bigsmile:

    I totally agree with you. I just started a week ago and was suprised by how much my "drinks" were costing me!
    Friday night out with friends: 3 glasses of wine: 780 cals.
    Sunday: Bloody Mary x 1 without the beer chaser: 200cals
    This really sucks for my social life!!! LOLOL
    I do include all my drinks, including my fat free milk and coffee. I feel I'm just cheating myself if I dont.
    PS: I have not had one Diet Pepsi since I started
    arrrrrrg Matey!!

    I drink tea, coffee and water during the day, and no, I don't log that. or herbal teas - green teas, chamomile, pu-erh tea. If I have calories to eat I have a glass of wine and that gets logged....

    If I eat it or drink it, it goes in my diary!!!
    .....doesn't matter if it hasn't got any calories..I still put it in there.
    I do drink water and unsweetened tea and coffe etc and juices occasionally to make up my calorie total if I need to.

    I don't understand the logic of NOT adding your drinks...everything adds up right?!!

    If you want to 'remind' people, just say what you mean. Don't post this paragraph saying how you're so surprised looking and diaries and seeing things not logged, because that just makes no sense. If it's not logged, then you really have no idea what was not consumed unless the person told you. Don't try to put it back on people who call you out on it, either. Own your posts.

    I log everything....water, tea, diet drinks, etc......because you can drink your calories away.....that is how I hold myself accountable...by logging everything that I eat and DRINK! and yes I did have two glasses of red wine this weekend...

    I don't log it if it doesn't have calories.

    OK. As long as you are happy with that double standard ("Only my friends can see *MY* diary, but I'm free to comment on *EVERYBODY'S* diaries, whether they are my friends or not), then there is no way you will understand what everybody else here is trying to tell you.
