According to WebMD: "coffee and tea also count in your tally. Many used to believe that they were dehydrating, but that myth has been debunked. The diuretic effect does not offset hydration." That's why I asked if tea counted for us. I know things are a bit different for those of us who have had WLS. I figured tea counted at least partially, but wasn't sure how much it counted as.

So do caffeinated beverages count towards Water intake at all? I like to drink unsweet iced tea sometimes. Can I count any part of that, or no?

Thanks for this article! I'm five months post-op and have been sick three times since the beginning of January. I'm currently sick again and pretty miserable. I'll be adding some of these things into my routine.
