Question:
Does fruit 20 count towards water?

During the day I drink Fruit 20. This accounts for most of the seventy ounces of water I drink during the day. Would my weight loss be greater if I drank water? Also, I eat 99 percent protein but I do have some watermelon per day. Will this slow down my weight loss. Thanks so much. Barbara P.    — Barbara P. (posted on July 16, 2002)

Hi Barbara, Fruit 20 IS water. It just has a light fruit flavoring. It SHOULD be counted in your daily total of water intake. Hope this helps.

This is really important...I started drinking Fruit2o right after I had my surgery and even drank it before. I noticed it hurt my new stomach and made me burp like crazy. I don't recommend drinking it at all. It has carbonation!! Take a bottle and shake it, you will see. I stay away from it completely and drink only water or crystal light but I am guilty of treating myself every now and then to a sip or two of caffeine free diet soda.

I drink Fruit 2o and have had no problems with it. Yes, it counts for your water. In fact, water has been my biggest challenge and this drink helped me get to where I need to be with my liquids.

I don't know about the Fruit 20 cause I drink Crystal Light. I am 7 months post op and just now have begun to tolerate water. As for the watermelon.......I live in Florida and it has been watermelon season the past couple of months. I have eaten SO MUCH watermelon! It hasn't hurt my weightloss at all! I like it for a nighttime snack. I cut up bite size chunks and take out the seeds. I can eat a whole cereal bowl full! I LOVE it!!

According to Very Fine, who makes Fruit 2-0, there is NOT carbonation in Fruit 2-0. According to my nutritionist it counts as water. I can't tolerate plain water well either, so it, along with Sugar Free V-8 Splash. have saved me. You can get Fruit 2-0 coupons at www.veryfine.com.

Fruit 20 having carbination and caffine??? What have you been smoking? lol Kidding really. I've never know it to have ether though. Anyway sure it counts towards water. Personally I like the lemon the best. And even better (that is MORE lemon taste) is the stuff that I found at P&C called "Adirondack Spring Water". They have alot of flavors but I've only tried the lemon and the lime. I really love the lemon. But both Fruit 20 and the Adirondack are very high in cost. I doubt you'd be drinking alot of it unless you have alot of throw away money.
