it doesnt make you lose weight it simply aids in digestion. drinking something warm/hot makes your body think that you are eating food so it gets your intestines and organs moving a bit faster, thus, helping speed up digestion and increase metabolism which helps contribute to weight loss in the long run

4 weeks ago I started drinking hot tea's of all kinds (no sugar or milk). I got addicted, two cups at night turned into all day long, when no tea is available, I choose hot water. I have lost over 10 pounds in a month and still gowing strong, I never liked tea or hot water! but I crave it now.

Drinking warm water or cold with a slice of lemon in it helps detoxify the body thereby reducing body fluid. It also tastes good, gives a feeling of fullness so your body doesn't crave food as much. Do not add sweetener. The cold water with slice of lemon is a great thirst quencher.

Drinking water is better than drinking beverages with calories, and unless you are overheated, ice water will actually cause you to burn a calorie or two, because your body will generate heat to maintain body temperature.
Hot water may actually cause you to burn a calorie or two less than warm water. Your body naturally burns a few hundred calories a day just to stay warm.

No--just the opposite. It takes more calories for your body to digest a very cold glass of water than it takes to digest a cup of hot water.

No. Try ice cold water. It helps to burn a few calories because your body has to work to heat it up.
But you arent going to lose weight just drinking water.
Exercise is key.

Depends on how hot.
If you scald the crap outta your tongue and the back of your throat, you won't want to eat, and THAT could cause you to lose weight...

that's false, but I've heard from Dr. Oz that drinking "at room temperature" water HELPS you burn more calories than ice cold water...
