Water and weightloss

[weightless1012]

Is it true that the more water you drink on a vlcd diet the more weight you lose? Just wondered what others thought were on this?

No, just drink the recommended amount. Drinking more can be dangerous, fatal even

Actually, within reason it is true that you lose more weight if you drink more water. However, the water should be spread throughout the day and taken in small amounts. Too much water in a short period is very bad for you and people have died from it. Don't go stupid is my view. I normally drink 5 or 6 litres a day - but I've always been a big water drinker anyway.

I think a good rule is just to drink when you feel the thirst, don't ignore it. I feel that my body always tells me when I need some water on this diet and I just obey

Your water uses your water to metabolise fat so make sure your always re-hydrated.... I usually have about 4 litres a day!!!
