I was told that you should drink half of your weight in water. That is, take your weight, divide by two, and drink that many ounces of water. That would mean I would need to drink 160 ounces a day. This is a LOT of water. I tried one day but just felt water logged. Maybe I tried to drink it too fast (I didn't want to drink a lot at night for fear that I would wake up every 2 hours...), so I tried to drink more during the day. I didn't feel well though, (thought I might throw up from it all) and I only got to about 120 ounces.
I'm just wondering if anybody else has had this same experience? It seems counter intuitive to me....I'm not exactly sure how drinking more water will help lost more weight? Anyone know the health aspects behind that?
My new plan is try to slooowly increase my water (not go from 60 ounces a day to 160).
