Don't you count your calories on your drinks for the day as well? I am a little confussed by this because they is nowhere to put down what I drink everyday besides Water.

    You put them with food. I would put mine under snacks.

    if i drink it with a meal, i include it with that meal, otherwise, i put it under snacks. like i put my morning coffee under breakfast. then if i have a glass of wine or milk or something with dinner, i put it under dinner. if it's just something i sip on not with a meal, i put it under snacks.

    but yes, you definitely need to log drinks because, unfortunately, sometimes they can really add cals.

    hope that made sense :flowerforyou:

    You can add a new category if you'd like- go to the 'food' tab up top, then look directly below that for 'settings' and it will take you to a page where you can chage which foods you want to view and you can add/change the categories.
