I am trying to lose 25 lbs, almost every person told me to drink plenty of water, but how much water should I drink a day that will help me help weight?
Generally speaking, a person need 2-3 liters of water everyday.
Some people suggest a simple method to figure out how much water you should drink to keep healthy.
Your weight in lbs divide 2, replace lbs with ounces, that is the amount of water you need a day.
Say your weight is 150 lbs, you need to drink 150 / 2 = 75 ounces of water. That is about 2.2 liters or 2.1 liters.
(U.S.) 1 ounce of water equal to 29.57 milliliters
(British) 1 ounce of water equal to 28.41 milliliters
In fact, drinking water has very little effect on boosting your metabolism. When people suggest you to drink a lot of water to lose weight, they mean water can fill your stomach, thus it help stop you from eating too much food.
They don’t mean water will help you lose weight directly.
