    For grins - during my lunch hour - while drinking 16 oz. of water and eating gummi bears (lol). I have tabulated the results of this thread. I did my best to eliminate duplicate respponses:

    Black Coffee COUNTS as water - 23

    Black coffee DOES NOT COUNT as water - 30,

    and 5 maybes

    Using new math, I will choose the answer that makes me feel the best.

    That's what happens when people force science down people's throats in a condescending manner with arrogance.

    Not forcing. And so not arrogant. You don't know a damn thing about me so shut your mouth.

    How do you know your scientific article is correct?

    Because it's not 1. Fox news; 2. CNN; 3. Boston.com (just named 3 news sources off the top of my head). It's a well respected scientific journal. It's not People Magazine.

    Actually, the name is Onesnap not Ohsnap, so you're clearly wrong here.

    Typically, anything with caffeine in it is likely to dehydrate you, and to drink equal amounts of water. My vote is on no, it's not part of your daily water.

    False. Caffeine will not dehydrate / act as a dieuretic unless consuming large quantities (600-700mg caffeine). There is a common sense way to approach this. Coffee is made with water. Add the quantity you drink towards your water intake for the day. Log your additions separately.

    If I ate chocolate covered coffee beans and drank 2 glasses of water would you NOT log the water simply because you consumed it with coffee beans?

    I don't log my water, I just drink it all day long. I do log tea once in a while as...tea.

    I do enjoy the chocolate covered coffee beans and water and I would 1. not count the water, because I don't log water; 2. log the beans as a snack.

    The amount if indignation and rage in here is amusing.

    Drink stuff. If your pee is nearly clear, you're all good. If it's yellow, drink water.

    Is drinking water really that much of a problem? Coffee contains water and yes, if consumed in great quantities is going to determine how you spend most of your afternoon. So what!!!

    If you enjoy coffee, drink it!
    .....but drink your eight glasses of water too. Its not that hard.

    The biggest benefit you are going to get from drinking all that water is that there will be less space for food and will give you a temporary feeling of being full w/o adding calories. Make sure to get the calories that you are supposed to have but try a big glass of ice water instead of snacking. You would be surprised at how well it works.
