in Chit-Chat
here's my question. Ok i KNOW that Ice turns into water eventually..but when it is still ICE and i have say 24 ounces of water, do I subtract 1oz per cube? 2oz per cube?

Also if I drink the water and THEN the ice melts do I count that as water if I drink it? Should I count its as water if i put it in iced tea? Also is the Rapper and Law and Order co-star Ice T named after the famous drink?

Anyways i am trying to get an accurate water count..thanks!

    Save yourself the headache and just log the water, lol. Water expands when it freezes, so X quantity of ice will yield a slightly smaller Y quantity of water once melted.

    Silly boy! Ice is a solid, and should be logged as a food, not a drink!

    Next you're going to be telling me that you don't distill and measure the steam coming out of your tea cup so you can adjust the calories accordingly.

    I wouldn't log it at all. Just enjoy the iced tea, log it and drink your water. Yes, ice is less dense than liquid water, but that is on a molecular level, I don't think the difference is really big enough to worry about nutritionally.

    That's because of the air pockets between the ice. What you need to do is fill in those air pockets with something. I'd suggest whiskey. Since you're logging ice as water anyway, it's just a filler to make sure the measurements are less confusing, and therefore should not be logged.

    Plus, after your 8th 8 ounce glass of "water", you won't be eating anything and puking your guts up is a great ab workout.
