Does drinking water help with weight loss much?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can : Our bodies are mostly water and need water to function. Water can help to flush out the system, to keep you hydrated, and can be used as a first choice when experiencing "hunger" to help learn the difference between physical and psychological hunger. Try to drink a minimum of 8 - 8 oz glasses per day. Drink a glass of water and wait 10 minutes before you eat to see if that does the trick.
