What Counts as Water

[Cameo325 27]

Hi Everyone,

I am sort of taking a survey. Do any of you include your caffeine free coffee and/or tea as part of your Water intake for the day? Just curious what I can count towards my 64 oz. Thanks!

I did.

yes, on my forms any liquids is considered as Water intake

Anything Fluid

Yes, any sugar-free liquid. I even include my Protein Shakes as liquid intake.

[FancyChristine15 810]

Same here. All of my liquids count towards my Water. I only do sugar free, so it all counts.

Anything Fluid that's non-caffeinated, non-carbonated, and sugar-free is how my doctor defines it.

I count tea and my Protein Shakes toward my 64 oz.

My NUT told me not to count Protein Shakes in my 64oz, but any sugar-free caffeine-free liquids could be counted.

All of the above (my dr and nut say coffee and tea are fine to count) as well as any liquids used in cooking as in your soups/broths

Ditto this. Except Protein Shakes. Those are to be counted separately from Water at my practice.
