Could crystal light be counted as water intake or does it have to be water by itself ... trying to find ways to get my 64 oz in

Yes

Most are pretty loose and free with their water tracking. Plenty of people count any liquid as "water". But yes, any water with a flavoring added is still water. I don't count any diuretics personally since they result in more water loss than they provide. Nor do I personally count milk or protein shakes for my water intake. But that's just me.

Thank you for the replies... I’m trying to figure out ways to make it easier because my body naturally stops at 2 1/2 bottles of just water a day and I want to push to 4 bottle to get everything in

I've never heard of someone with an instinctual "stop" for water consumption...
Start as soon as you get up, and keep a bottle with you at ALL times, including next to you while you are sleeping. And just keep drinking. It's easy to get up to some serious numbers this way. I can hit over 150 oz of water just by keeping my bottle full and with me at all times.

If Crystal Light didn't count I'd never make my water goals! I drink 32 oz. of water and 32 oz. of Crystal Light every day. I really hate water.

ALL FLUIDS count towards your hydration goals (pure water is superior of course) , Crystal light, milk, broth, protein shakes, Powerade, even Popsicles!
Check in with your team for more clarity on the subject.

I bought a ceramic cup from Starbucks that says 14 ounces on the bottom of it. I drink 5 of them per day of water and I am good.

Go to Starbucks and get a mug that says 14 oz on the bottom and you will feel less intimidated by the large water reuirement.

Thanks you all .... and yeah my body just doesn’t let me keep drinking as in I could go all day with just those 2 1/2 and I feel like I have no want or need for something else to drink for the day ... maybe it is feeling intimidated by the jug or all the water bottles but this does help you all .. I thought it only had to be pure water ... Just trying to find ways to complete my daily goals

I would not be able to handle 64oz of pure water. I would lose desire quickly, I need fun water too. Lol
