Healthy Weight Loss

I am trying to lose weight. I have reduced my food intake by 60%. How much water should I drink every day in view of reduced food intake?

The basic purpose of drinking water and other fluids is to balance the minerals in the blood.

While a person is on diet and his consumption has come down drastically there is no point in drinking too much water.

So in my opinion water intake should also be reduced by 60% or more.

If the person were to maintain the same amount of water that he was drinking before to lull the hunger, it will bring down his metabolic rate.

The body will shift most of the excess water to cells causing downward shift to metabolic rate.

Remember that water is 75% of total body weight. So when you are losing weight 75% weight loss has to come from water loss.
