    WOW...I expected a lot of hater responses...look at the science and you will see it's true. But notice that I said in my thread other factors apply!

    I love how people are taking one sentence and basing their whole response on that! In typical fashion along with other groups who do that same thing!

    What science are you talking about? There is no such thing as "liquid body fat". I have no clue what you are talking about, but it is clear you don't either so we are on the same page in that regard.

    Well let's look at what you stated:
    Speeds metabolism- there a was a small study that did show it did, but that water was at body temperature (98.6 degrees) to have an effect. So if you like drinking warm water, it MAY help.
    Other studies haven't concluded it.

    Convert solid fat into liquid fat with H20- yeah, no.

    It's not about hating, it's about how misinformation shouldn't be passed on as actual information on the site.

    Feel free to support your opinion with any PEER REVIEWED CLINICAL STUDIES. I'd be willing to read them and change my stance if they are legit.

    Well... yeah. They're taking the sentence with the inaccurate claims and basing their response on that, which is what anyone would do.

    If you wrote a paragraph about how the grass is green, and the clouds are white, and the sky is blue and your pet unicorn is pink, you can bet everyone would be like "Unicorn? You don't have a ****ing unicorn."

    Armchair expert. So who do you think will win the NHL this year?

    An expert I trust says that the byproduct of fat metabolism is carbon dioxide and water vapor. So we exhale our extra pounds!

    Perhaps the OP meant that fat liquifies if we drink lots of boiling water whilst immersed in boiling water... which just might work; but sounds rather painful.

    this thread is one reason why I rarely visit the message boards anymore. Why would someone take the time to post a subject that isn't based in fact?

    Well, if by losing weight you mean peeing back off all the water you drank. I drink what I'm thirsty for. Chugging extra is just a pain in the butt; it doesn't make you lose fat faster.

    Since when has "fact" stopped anyone from saying anything they wish to? Politicians, religious leaders, etc...

    Consuming water comes with responsibility as well. Too much water can cause you to diminish your electrolyte stores in the body. There have been stories of people "drowning" themselves from drinking too much water.

    This is why I drink Brawndo. It's got electrolytes.

    Yeah, what 9 said.
    Here's PubMed, where you can search for published, peer-reviewed scientific studies.
    Good luck finding any to support your claims.

    And before you even go there... (well, more than you already did)

    The burden of proof lies with someone who is making a claim, and is not upon anyone else to disprove.
    The inability, or disinclination, to disprove a claim does not render that claim valid, nor give it any credence
    whatsoever ... we must assign value to any claim based on the available evidence

    Well, if you want to stick with facts one needs to accept that water is critical to Cellular Respiration, whose rate of which is the definition of Metabolism (Metabolic Rate). For cells to create ATP (Energy), they need H2O (Both for the Oxygen and the Hydrogen). Too little water and the rate of Cellular Respiration (Metabolism) slows down.

    This is 8th Grade Biology, not witchcraft or mysticism. Most people go about their days dehydrated. If your mouth is dry, you are dehydrated. Being dehydrated means you have already slowed down your metabolism. You should not wait until you are thirsty to drink. You should drink to prevent being thirsty. Again, not voodoo or make-believe, but Science and fact.

    For more information and to learn the facts of Cellular Respiration and your Metabolic Rate, Google it - or watch this cool video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gh2P5CmCC0M

    Nobody is claiming you don't need water. That would be a ridiculous hyperbole.

    The OP is talking about water being some magical ingredient for lipid metabolism. Of course it is required, as is oxygen. Should we also say "you lose weight by breathing"?

    I love that website. It's so great.

    Burden of proof is the reason that arguing with my SIL is always fruitless. You could give her a dozen reasons why what she is stating is false and/or inaccurate, but as soon as you fail to come up with reason #13, she declares victory.

    I figure people gullible enough to believe that sort of thing will be the ones subjugated eventually. I don't bother trying to educate the foolish anymore.

    Wow, this poses a doozy of a dilemma. It would seem now that I have to breathe as often as possible in order to lose more weight. But I also have to drink a lot of water every day. Which is better? Should I alternate? Breathe, drink, breathe, drink. Or should I figure I will get excess breathing in while I sleep, so maybe breathe, drink, drink, breathe, drink, drink during the day? Does osmosis work for this? Can I just breathe a lot while sitting in water? Anyone who can clear this up for me will for sure be cited as an expert in my soon-to-be-released best seller: "The H2O/O2 Effect - How to Breathe and Sip Your Weigh to a Sexy Slim You!".

    We no longer speak, for a variety of reasons, but this sort of thing is one of the many I do not miss about her.

    As for the OP, I wish. I drink my 8 or so cups a day so I can sustain the level of activity I like in the weather of the place I live. It has not made me thin.

    Molecular science...if you look at the chains for solid vs. liquid fats, you will see the missing link between the two are 2 hydrogen atoms.

    For the body to metabolize solid fat it has to be broken down into liquid state. H2O is A WAY[/b for that to happen.

    Common knowledge in Human Bio classes for anyone who has taken one.

    You guys can chat amongst yourselves now...you guys are extreme downers...

    If by downers you mean people that actually understand the science, then yes. Yes we are.

    Just because something is required doesn't mean it causes it.

    Also lol at solid fat becoming liquid fat as how our bodies get rid of it.

    If you want to make a fire, you need wood (for example), and oxygen. But just putting wood near some oxygen isn't going to cause it to catch fire spontaneously.
