How much water do I HAVE to drink to lose weight?

water has little effect on fat loss. It is good to keep hydrated for workouts.

Try just getting 8 oz of fluids a day

I drink 120-140 oz a day, or right around a gallon. The more overweight you are, the more you are supposed to drink.

No joke, try drinking water out of a cup with a straw. Bahah i swear it's easier that way.

Half your body weight in ounces is the key.

Maybe you should see a doctor if water makes you sick. Or maybe try some filtered water.

water also help your body in lots of ways - like your skin and your organs. - flushes out toxins -

maybe try slices of orange or a sliver of lemon everyonce in a while - try and get your 8 glasses in - it really does make a difference - and you'll find yourself craving it -

good luck !

Try drinking sparkling water that is flavored and no cal. Or had lemons to it. I like lemon in Hot water kinda like a lemon tea, Plus instead of glasses I use a water bottle to keep track of how much I'm drinking. Good luck with your goal!

I lose more weight by drinking more water. I wasn't a huge fan of drinking water but now, it's all I drink. I go to restaurants and I get water. I go to vending machines and my first choice is water. I keep a bottle of water by my at all times when working. A single bottle of water is about 2 cups and it can go pretty quickly.

The benefits of drinking water are such:
-Keeps you hydrated and refreshed.
-Clears your skin and keeps it moisturized (for me, my skin is smoother when I drink more water).
-Clears your systems and keeps it healthy.
-It's said that cold water burns a small amount of calories and warm water increase metabolism (this is the main reason I drink it, true or not).

Now, I don't feel as hungry, I feel more refreshed, and find myself unable to live without water. It's just something you get used to. To know how many ounces you need, take your weight and divide by 2. Mine is about 63oz (8 cups or 4 16oz bottles of water).

I probably gave you more info than you asked for but it's something that's good to know. It's doesn't make you lose weight and it's not really necessary TO lose weight, it just REALLY helps and it's good for your body.

If you have problems drinking water, try drinking it at a warmer temperature. Room temp water is easier to drink than cold water.

drinking water will help weight loss because a lot of people eat more when they are dehydrated, and usually what they are eating is sugar. Also, water helps banish bloat. If you are bloated the number won't go down on the scale as much as it should. Try drinking at least 6 glasses of 8 oz, if you can, drink 8-10 glasses. But 6 oz is definitely the absolute minimum.

If you can't drink plain water try crystal light, herbal teas and drinks like Trop 50 which are about 50% water anyway. Also, try artisan waters, they usually taste better than tap and poland spring.

None. Drink what you like - tea, coffee, fruit juice, sodas, soup, fruit juice, watery fruit and vegetables, stews - your body doesn't care where the H2O molecules come from. So long as you're not dehydrated (water is a pale straw colour, but note vitamin B can make it dark yellow) you'll be fine.

Caffeine is NOT a diuretic, however alcohol is!

I like to float cucumber slices in the water, makes it very refreshing. Esp. in the summer.
