Question

I've gotten conflicting information on this subject. Do your leaders consider Crystal Lite to count towards your water intake for the day?

Our leader advises us that we can count non-caffeinated drinks like crystal light for no more than one half of our daily water. We have to get at least half of our 'water' from actual WATER.

Good luck!

When I attended meetings, my leader said the same thing: water must make up half of the total intake.

My OB has cautioned me, though, to watch the carbohydrate count too. I never realized how high the amount of carbs really are in sugar free beverages.

If you look at page 7 in the Program Basics Book (1-2-3 Success) or page 45 in Focus on the 10% Difference (10% Difference) or page 18 in Getting Started (Winning Points):

"Any type of water - plain, sparking, club soda,and unsweetened, flavored seltzer - counts. You can also have 3 of your 6 glasses as juice, milk, decaffeinated beverages or any other beverage that doesn't contain alcohol. Just be sure to count the points."
