Fluid Intake?

I am sure this has been asked millions of times, but question, do you include your protein intake as a fluid as well?  My protein is 4 ounces of reduced cal oj, 8 ounces of water and my mix which is only 90 calories.  So all in total 115 calories for the whole thing, but since it is still liquidy, would I count it as part of my intake?
I have started a blog all of my own for this journey.  Please follow me at www.digitalsheep.org.

 Yes Mam you do.   You include anything that is liquid with your liquid intake.   Including any protein shakes.

one of those depends on who you ask - my doc's rules were
protien shakes don't count
water has less than 5 calories per serving (meaning cl and sf coolaid counted as water)
if it has caffine you only get to count half

some poeple say if you can suck it though a straw you can count it as part of your liquid -

I just reread that - you are mixing it with OJ??

I would not count the juice for sure but that is just me and the only juice I can even sip is tomatoe so enjoy the OJ for me too
