Water Intake & Soup

Hi all. I've been eating a lot of soup these days since it's great to take to work for lunch. But since I'm eating so much soup I'm having a really hard time getting in all my water. Can I count my soup towards my water intake? What about other liquids that I drink ie: milk?
If I still have to drink a ton of water, can I log all the trips to the bathroom as exercise?

    Lol @ the trips to the bathroom.

    I only count water as water. I try to get in at least 8-10 cups of water a day plus whatever else I drink (coffee in the morning and maybe a diet caffeine free pepsi at night) but i only log water as water. I bring soup for lunch a lot too (easy and quick) and you do get more used to all the liquid if that makes things any better? I find I don't have to pee nearly as much now as I did when I first really started trying to get 8-10 glasses of water in a day.
