    I log any drink that has calories. I can drink anything from zero calories to a thousand on a boozy weekend. I log every bit of it. My diary is open so feel free to nose around.

    The only drink I consume with calories is a protein shake. I imagine most people on here ditch calorie drinks as soon as that start logging and realize how many of their daily calories they consume.

    I log it. Black coffee and diet coke do have calories.

    I only drink black coffee, black tea, water, and seltzer. So I don't bother logging those.

    Drink calories are basically the first thing I completely cut because they're pretty much never worth it for me (except a latte once in a while, but I still don't add sugar).

    I only log drinks with calories. My drinks are just one coffeee, tea and lots and lots of water. No calories, for me, means no logging

    i log everything. I have gotten away from drinking soda/pop and drink a lot more water, but I also drink heavy cream, and coconut milk. I am doing LCHF

    The diet coke in my fridge has zero calories. The can even says, "zero calorie soda." Do you have a different kind of diet coke?

    It technically has a couple, but law states that the manufacturer can claim zero if it's under five per serving. Not enough for me to bother with.

    A 500ml bottle has 2 calories I think. They are allowed to say zero calories because its less than one calorie per 'blah' amount. I guess it's negligible, but I still log it :-)

    I'm with them ^^

    I can't afford to drink calories any more. It doesn't help me stay full and if I want fruit I eat fruit. I very rarely have a Coke or anything that is zero nutrition. I have some milk in my coffee, then it's water the rest of the day.

    This.

    I also don't log water, since I always drink plenty and always have.

    Coffee (black) has a few calories, but since I always drink it and it's not that many I don't bother logging. If I ever decide to cut down I will. Maybe. Maybe I'll check the water thing for it to be confusing!

    I drink water and unsweetened tea the vast majority of the time so I do not log it. Now, if I have a soda or lemonade or something, that I will log.

    If I drink something with zero calories I may or may not log it. Most times I do. The rest of the time I just brink water with Mio or something like that. The calories in that are negligible and within the margin of error that it doesn't matter.

    Or right now I have a bottle of sparkling flavored water. Don't know if I'll log or just add water.

    In the UK we have labels like this for zero calorie carbonated drinks.

    I mainly drink water, coffee, and La Croix. I'll log the milk in my coffee but I don't bother to log my water all day.

    The only liquid I log is stuff with calories. I drink a lot of diet soda and I don't bother with that. 1-2 calories per soda isn't going to change my figure.

    The only calories that are worth drinking are booze calories, which I most definitely log.
