Hi I'm new to pal fitness. My question is do I need to add my drinks to my daily report?

    Some people add coffee, others skip it because it is pretty low calorie. I personally log it. If you're adding milk/cream/sugar, you want to log those for sure.

    Juices can be very high calorie, so you want to log those for sure.

    Thank you. Do I log it under food or snacks?

    As long as it makes it into your diary, it doesn't matter.

    It doesn't matter. All the calories will be added together for the day. You can separate them however you want to.

    You can even make up your own meals or time periods. When I worked nights and ate very atypical meals I logged by time period instead of "breakfast" "lunch" or "dinner".

    Be sure and measure the juices accurately, those calories add up really fast. Not so much with coffee, unsweetened tea or diet beverages.
