jn26845 8 Posted April 17, 2012 Do you count your Protein Drinks toward your Fluid intake? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJsharon 119 Posted April 17, 2012 Good question, will be interested to hear the answer! I would think it would as it is Water or milk, so it is liquid. But really unsure! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoExcuses 24 Posted April 17, 2012 I do ~ because the first ingredient on my RTD Premier shakes is Water. For the shakes that I make on my own, I use 8 ounces of Almond milk and I count that in my total as well. The rest of what I get in is good ole' H2O, crystal light, and G2. 1 Lauranbob Mc reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AliveAgain 283 Posted April 17, 2012 Yes, depending on how they are made. If they are ready to drink, then it's most likely milk or Water (yes). If you're making a smoothie-type shake with lots of fruit and stuff, you'll want to measure what liquid you put in. The juice from fruits and veggies varies depending on what it is, but from my juicing days you could bank on 1-1.5 of juice say from two celery stalks. Or 2oz from 1.5 apple (even if they measured 4oz in the measuring cup, chopped). Yes - Water, broth, milks (dairy, soy, almond, rice, etc.), even the water you use to make Jell-O or Popsicle count! But they make up just a fraction of your daily intake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
