I really dont understand, how if I can drink 10 glasses a day and have all the water weight on me and then in the morning I have lost weight? Where does the water go, I know I am not getting rid of all that water through urine. I have lost 35 lbs in 2 months because I have intracranial hypertension that damages your optic nerve. You can go blind! I am now fasting for 10 days! Any ideas?

First, drinking a lot of water creates a sense of fullness, thereby reducing the desire to eat. Second, water contains no calories, yet the body burns calories in processing it through the digestive and excretory systems.
A person's weight will decrease at night, even though they are asleep. As you exhale, you will breathe out water vapor. I often weigh at night before I go to bed and then again in the morning. I weigh about 2 pounds less in the morning.

I'm sorry to hear about your situation. I will say that if you're already losing weight due to illness, fasting probably isn't a good idea. But if you are fasting because of a religious/social belief, then all the power to you. Just remember to be safe!
A good way to lose weight is to eat many small meals a day rather than fasting. Also, consuming water helps both flush your system of impurities and aid in losing weight. But one thing's for sure...if you're dehydrated your body is more likely to hold on to any water it can get a hold of. Additionally, large intakes of salty foods can make you bloated (water weight).
Good luck to you and your health.

The water flushes out a lot of stuff that would otherwise remain and keep your weight up. The water evaporates, goes out as urine, and goes out in your stool, though if you have been fasting for 10 days, I doubt you have many B.M.s!
Good luck and keep it up. I assume that you are under a Dr.'s care. Better to go hungry than to go blind!

When you drink a lot of water, it flushes your system and usually flushes fat. Besides, you loose water weight a lot easier than normal boady fat. It is also lost in sweat, and your muscles take it in to keep hydrated.

Fasting first of all is stupid, if you want to look good. All your going to do is loose muscle tissue. It drives me NUTS that you people think that's what to do.
Anyway, your body can hold up to 10-15 lbs of extra weight from water gain. Drinking water helps your body flush and digest food better. That's how it helps loose weight. You said nothing about working out! Maybe that's something you should try! You can work out from a couch if you have to. Fasting is stupid. You don't sound that stupid
