Answer 1

You do NOT have to "drink lots of water" to lose weight!! That's a myth. No basis in science.

Answer 2

Drinking water has nothing to do with weight loss, except that it will make your stomach feel full for a few minutes.

=============================================

To loose weight: eat a balanced diet, eat less, and exercise more.
To keep the weight off, you should loose about 1 pound per week.
Spot reducing (e.g. from waist or thighs) does not work.

Answer 5

Plain water is fine. However, colder water makes your body work a little harder since it has to bring the temperature down ;)

Are you nuts? Ice is frozen water, so it really doesn't matter if you drink ice water or room temperature water. You could always........nevermind.

Plain water is just fine.

Answer 9

well i've heard that when you drink ice cold water that it takes calories to "heat" the water so you can use it, i don't know if that is true or not...but i do know that cool (un-iced) water is absorbed faster and helps with hydration faster....personally i don't like ice water, cold from the tap for me...
