How much water should I drink daily to aid in semi-quick, but healthy weight loss? -

I m trying to lose about 20 pounds in 8 weeks.

The Experts Recommend that for good Heath we should drink 2 Litres of water a Day to keep ourselves Hydrated, it is very good for you.Like anything we eat or drink we can Consume to much of one item and it can actually Kill us. I have heard to many Carrots can be very bad for you. I have also heard that to much water when drunk to excess can Kill you. So stick to the guidelines of Two Litres a day no more.

Always drink a minimum of 8 glasses of water a day....this is as well as your usual drinks of tea, coffee etc. This is just pure plain water. Be aware..you CAN drink too much water. Don t go over 3 litres a day.

My Aerobics instructor told us to drink half your body weight in ounces. This will help you lose weight faster. So if you 150 lbs drink 75 onces of water.

YOU CAN NEVER DRINK TOO MUCH WATER. BY FAR THE BEST WAY TO DETOX! DRINK A LOT, WALK A LOT...

You should shoot for losing 20 pounds in 10 weeks, not 8 weeks ... the rule of thumb for healthy weight loss is 2 pounds per week. Drink approximately 64 ounces of water a day ... and you can t count any drinks with caffeine (coffee, most colas) but you may count things like water soup and even milk toward your 64 ounce total. You MAY increase your water consumption to up to 72-78 ounces if some of what you drink is not straight water but if you drink too much water every day, you can actually drown yourself from the inside ...

Drink ice water, the body burns calories heating the water before it hits your stomach. The minimum requirement for healthy functioning of the body is 2 liters daily.
