Dehydrated???: The total amount of fluid that you take in includes all the fluid in the food that you eat. A cuke is 95% water so a 5 oz cuke is 4.75 oz of water. In it. Why do think you're dehydrated? You're only 18 and likely have excellent working kidneys that are great at maintaining your fluid and electrolyte balance.
