Water and Weight Loss
Does drinking water help in weight loss? If you are simply increasing the amount of water that you drink without making any changes to your diet or your exercise, then no, simply drinking water is not going to help with your weight loss effort. On the other hand, you should understand that any weight loss efforts that you are attempting to achieve are going to be greatly hampered unless you are hydrating your body properly.
So, why should you drink water?
When you burn fat or oxidize it within your body, it releases waste products. In turn, you need to have enough water in your body that you can flush these waste products out and away from your body.
Your liver also requires a certain amount of water in order for it to be able to process the fat in your body. When you are dehydrated, then you are not going to be able to burn nearly as much fat as when you are properly hydrated.
When you exercise, you are depleting the muscles in your body of stored energy, which is known as glycogen. In order for you to refuel those muscles, you are going to need to bind the energy to more water.
So how much water is enough water?
There are a number of different options when it comes to determining how much water is the right amount of water for you. Many people say that you need an absolute or finite amount of water, such as 8 glasses per day for example. This is not actually very helpful to us in particular because we are all unique, and therefore our water needs are also all unique.
Too many people simply are not drinking enough water. There are so many benefits for drinking more water that it is necessary for us to find out whether or not we are getting what our body needs in order to thrive.
Here are two pretty clear methods of calculating whether or not you are getting enough water:
The first method is to aim to have between 2 and 3 completely clear urinations during the day. This is a bit explicit, but it is actually an excellent benchmark for a typical healthy adult.
The second method is to take the amount of your body weight in lbs, and divide it by the number two. This is going to give you a rather rough estimate of how many ounces of water you should be drinking every day. For example, if you weigh 200 lbs even, then you should be aiming for 100 oz of water every day. It may seem like a lot, but you can manage it if you are smart about your water intake.
If you do any exercise at all, you are going to want to intake more water as well.
