I know this has probably been talked about on here somewhere, but I cant find it, I want to know your opinion, on adding those drink powders to your water, like Crystal light and all that stuff, do you still count it as water?

    I don't add powders to my water but yes, it counts.

    Yep, it counts. If it matters to you, don't forget to log the calories. I'm flexible enough that 20-30 calories of Mio (if it's even that much, pkg says zero) won't make a difference for me. But, say, 40-50+ calories of Crystal Light might add up significantly enough to log.

    Yep. My health care team (doctor, surgeon and nutritionist) all say it counts. I log the packets of crystal light I drink, it doesn't add up to much.
