Does my morning coffee count

In a hospital setting input and output of all beverages is recorded.

As for calories that's a different issue. In hospital we are not measuring calories. Reckon this topic could go on forever

OP asked if her morning coffee counted toward her water intake for the day. It does. The main ingredient is water. You and a couple other folks seem to be assuming that it would be breaking some unspoken MFP rule to log your coffee or other drink in your food diary and THEN click on your water tracker to update it. You literally can do both of these!! The water tracker is a completely different tool. For the love of calorie counting, we aren't saying to not log the coffee!! We aren't saying that coffee doesn't have calories! We were just answering the OP's question with a "Yes".

At least that's the way I interpreted the question. I see OP has not returned. Lol!

some where I also said you can add it to your water also but I add it to my calories. I also didn't say it was breaking a rule. Think some of you need to go add some chocolate or something to calm down a bit. I ad it as calories.That is all..we all do it differently. Simple! Maybe op hasn't come back because the topic has gotten out of hand. Wise move op. I'm doing the same...I dislike serious stuff.

Apparently you have me on ignore, but I'm responding, anyway.

You said in your very first post that no one should add coffee to the water ticker because it has calories and therefore should be logged under food. So, yeah, you did say that.

And you continually come in here and respond to people who are only trying to clarify for the OP that one can do both with personal insults and nasty comments about how you have a life and we should get one or that we're all "hungry" or "need a beer/cookie/whatever." And then you tell us we're taking it too seriously, even though -- at least mine -- comments are sarcastic and humorous and only trying to be clear that coffee can count as a water serving, since that's what the OP wanted to know and people like you keep muddying the answer and making it far more complicated than it is.

We all need a life and are taking things too seriously and are hangry, but you keep coming back and commenting, so pot meet kettle.

I only count water as water..

I have not once insulted anyone. I also said like others I add it to my calories.you don't insult? You mentioned I was unattractive and you slso stated I maybe of another gender.funny cos I have given birth to 5 kids.i don't believe guys can birth. You have done nothing but attack me. Quit it!

I said you were not the gender I'm attracted to, not that you were unattractive in general. And I said your inability to recognize humor was unattractive to me, which has nothing to do with physical appearance. I like people with a sense of humor -- a real one, anyway.

And I said all of that AFTER you made your comments about people being "hangry" and "too serious" in direct response to my post pointing out the inaccuracies in your own directly related to the topic at hand and not as personal insults or criticisms.

You might want to go back and re-read the exchange before you comment again.

And I recognize you from when you have done this exact same thing before in other threads.

I add my coffee and tea into my food log. not water as it does have calories.

my original post apparently I attacked people hmm..

OMG

No one said you attacked anyone in your original post. But I'm starting to see the problem here.

you did good bye

WATER. is WATER.

Water in veg, fruit, non-caffeinated drinks contribute to your daily hydration, put keep it SIMPLE :

Water. is WATER

I am to drink TWO 32 oz. tumblers of water per day. More if I'm working out / sweating. I keep it with me at all times.

Does my morning coffee count as water drank?

No because even though coffee has water in it, it still dehydrates you.

Please quote where this was said, regarding your original post.

I've just worked out how to block a person I can't see it now.

What an amazing coincidence.

I havent been on long had to go through another forum to find out how to block. Believe whatever you want to but this topic has gone off track and really I am not putting up with personal attacks. Im out.

I bet she can't quote where she was personally attacked, either. But I can quote several places where she personally attacked not just me but others and the community as a whole.

What a lovely lady. And she's a nurse. Sad.

I log my coffee separate from my water. Coffee has calories, water does not.

Is it your belief that the calories interfere with the your body's ability to derive hydration from the water in coffee?

NO IT DOESNT. Coffee, even though it has water in it, dehydrates you.

All the information I've read agrees that coffee dehydrated you.
I usually drink 4oz water after my coffee to nix the dehydration factor that I don't even log in my daily water consumption.

Multiple sources linked in this very thread disagree with the notion that coffee dehydrates you, with scientific studies to back up the disagreement. Because they're already in this thread, I trust you can go through and find them, rather than needing to have them linked again.

12 million Americans believe lizard people control politics, so yeah it's possible that this 1 person believes that calories interfere with the bodies hydration metabolism. Oh wait, there's more than one.....maybe it's true.

I do the same. I like being able to easily track my water intake.

yes

Drinks with caffeine in them don't dehydrate you enough to negate the water you took in. Need proof? I'm still alive and kickin'. I don't drink very much plain water. Honestly, the only time I drink plain water is when I need to drink a lot at one time to take a large pill. Hopefully this won't take the thread in a completely different direction, but most of what I drink is caffeinated and I stay adequately hydrated.
