The Experts Recommend that for good Heath we should drink 2 Litres of water a Day to keep ourselves Hydrated, it is very good for you.Like anything we eat or drink we can Consume to much of one item and it can actually Kill us. I have heard to many Carrots can be very bad for you. I have also heard that to much water when drunk to excess can Kill you. So stick to the guidelines of Two Litres a day no more.

You should 'shoot for' losing 20 pounds in 10 weeks, not 8 weeks ... the 'rule of thumb' for 'healthy weight loss' is 2 pounds per week. Drink approximately 64 ounces of water a day ... and you can't count any drinks with 'caffeine' (coffee, most colas) but you may count things like 'water soup' and even milk toward your 64 ounce total. You MAY 'increase' your 'water' consumption to up to 72-78 ounces if some of what you drink is not 'straight water' but if you drink 'too much water' every day, you can actually 'drown yourself' from the 'inside' ...

I found the book to be very informative and easy to read.
I've lost 17 pounds in 12 days, I'm just concerned that I'm losing too much weight, too quickly. I will admit I haven't followed the guide exactly. I'm not sticking perfectly to the listed foods and meal plans (but mostly) and doing very little exercise, but the weight keeps flying off.
It clearly works and if I'd followed it exactly I think it would scare the living daylights out of me because of the amount that I'd lose. So thanks again for the information. I've never purchased anything like this before because they are usually full of trash, but 3WD has been a pleasant surprise.

Always drink a minimum of 8 glasses of water a day....this is as well as your usual drinks of tea, coffee etc. This is just pure plain water. Be aware..you CAN drink too much water. Don't go over 3 litres a day.

Drink ice water, the body burns calories heating the water before it hits your stomach. The minimum requirement for healthy functioning of the body is 2 liters daily.

My Aerobics instructor told us to drink half your body weight in ounces. This will help you lose weight faster. So if you 150 lbs drink 75 onces of water.
