Does more Water increase weight loss success?

[hopeful2 be slim 121]

yes ....if you are drinking less Water.< /p>

Aside from keeping you hydrated (which is fairly important! ), it helps the digestive process and a number of other ancillary benefits. http://www.onemedical.com/blog/live-well/6-benefits-of-staying-hydrated/

I still have a difficult time remembering to drink enough Water (I just forget!), but just gotta make it a point to do so.

Good luck!

Absolutely yes!

Yes! I'm only 5 weeks out but I have realized that if I don't drink enough Water my scale stalls

The fat only has one way to exit your body...through Water. You must pee or sweat. I always stall if I don't drink enough water.

I have very hard time drinking my water.. I'm almost 3 weeks out, I think I'm a slow loser coz of that!

Not by itself. Water is good because it helps the plumbing, but you still need to eat a balance diet. Whether you strive for the 6-8 eight ounce glasses, or 64 ounces a day water is good for weight loss, better skin & hair. There is such a thing as water toxicity but that's an extreme condition that requires much more water than any of us who have had WLS could possibly drink.

At a recent pre-op support group, the RN explained that every 2 lbs of fat requires 8 lbs (?) of Water to process it out of our body. Since the body uses up the glycogen in our muscles first, we need to drink the equivalent of 8 lbs of water to convert the equivalent of 2 lbs of adipose fat to energy the body can use once the glycogen is used up.
