The cow had to drink a lot of water to produce the milk, how else is it a liquid? And that explains where powdered milk comes from, it's just milk with the water removed. So if I just drink 8 glasses of milk a day I should be good, right?

I would think so, yes. It hydrates you. It has more calories than water tho0

I know, right? It just makes sense. I think I'll be making the switch to milk soon!0

Eh I would consider it half water half non water. It's a liquid, yes. But not all of it is water. How much milk do you drink a day?0

Cows milk has a lot of sugar it in. Log it as milk, it has calories, fat, protein, sugar. water doesn't, don't cheat yourself!0

I count all fluids as water.
Technically you could also count anything that is liquid at room temp like icecream, jello etc.
But thats just how I do it. The point is that you hydrate your body with enough fluids.0 -
Milk is a fluid, and will hydrate you, however it's very high in calories and fat. If you drink 8 glasses a day of full-fat milk that would be a large proportion of your calorie intake; even semi-skimmed milk has about 100 calories per glass. Log it as milk.0
