Total daily water intake. Do you include tea/coffee/other dr
Replies

I drink other things throughout the day, but still try to get 8 glasses of water on top of that. If I drink only pop/tea, I end up retaining water.0

water is water.
everything else is crap.0 -
It also doesn't matter if there's caffeine in the coffee or tea. Water is water is water and it doesn't matter what form it's in.
It matters a whole lot!!!!!!
Actually, caffeine TAKES water away from your body. So while you think you might be getting 8 oz of water in your caffeinated coffee, you are actually taking water out of your body!
omg...get a clue please!0 -
No I only count my water and my daily water intake.0
-
I ADD EVERYTHING I DRINK BUT I DRINK 72OZ OF WATER A DAY0
-
there is water in my beer, can I count that also, lmao0

Monster where are you with your links?!
Water is water. But other liquids hydrate you too. I count coffee, tea, and some other thigns into my daily water intake. I count it more as "fluid" goal to keep hydrated.0 -
I personally only count plain water. No coffee, tea, ect.0
-
I count my iced tea and lemonade towards my water intake. Don't drink coffee and rarely drink sodas. I do try and make sure that at least 1/2 my fluid intake is just plain water.0
-
Nope, just agua!0

I only count water but my nutritionist said that the tea and coffee count. I don't really believe the water myth. I drink when I am thirsty. And I drink a little extra when I am going to workout, or working out.0

Apparently there are no studies or research that support the "caffeine diuretic" claim. Any claims to the contrary appear to be anechdotal at best. So until science proves that it is a diuretic, I will continue to count ALL liquid intake. But that's just me.0

NOPE - my 96-128 oz are always just water... my coffee, diet soda, or anything else I drink goes in my food log...0
-
Nope only count water. It's not hard to take in enough water. I use a 24oz water bottle and drink 3 a day, at least.0

That totally was tasteless0 -
To me, "water" means water.
I find that I don't always need to drink 8 glasses a day.
Whether you think you need 8 glasses per day or not, you need it.0 -
I personally only log plain water on the cup things - but, I've heard that all drinks count. At the end of the day tea, coffee, cola or whatever are pretty much all water anyway...and you'd have to drink a LOT of them to have the said diuretic/dehydration effect.0

Bump for the entertaining back-and-forth.0

I only drink water and tea and I count everything but always forget to use the little toggle thingy to add my water so I have a liquids part in my log, most of the time I DON'T forget to put it there! LOL!0
