I want to track my water intake. I'm using a 24 ounce container for my water. Do I track that as 3 servings of water?

    You can also count the water, that's absorbed by cooking foods; such as: pasta, soup, etc.

    You can, but to be fair, most food has a pretty large moisture content, so adding that kind of thing in will likely just get unnecessarily convoluted.

    Yea. I am sure you can cout wate in foods bUT I don't thint I will. I've used this app for a few years and just realized that I needed to multiply the water I drink at work by 3 due to the size of my glass.

    Yes. I drink from a 12oz cup, so every time I reach 2 x 12oz cups, I log as 3 x 8oz cups on the chart.
