Yeah, but it's better to make sure you have enough water, than to assume that coffee and tea count as water and then end up with mild dehydration (which can stall weight loss). Any caffeinated beverage is definitely not counted in your total water intake, as caffeine has a diuretic effect in some people (which is exactly the opposite of what you're aiming for!).
