What's The Skinny on Water? 
Incredible as it may seem, water is quite possibly the single most important catalyst in losing weight and keeping it off.  Although people take it for granted, water may be the only true magic potion for permanent weight loss.
 
Water suppresses the appetite naturally and helps the body metabolize stored fat.  Studies have shown that a decrease in water intake will cause fat deposits to increase,  while an increase in water intake can actually reduce fat deposits.  This is why:  The kidneys cannot function properly without enough water.  When they don't work at full capacity, some of their load is dumped onto the liver.  One of the liver's primary functions is to metabolize stored fat into usable energy for the body.  But, if the liver has do some of the the kidney's work, it can't operate at full throttle to do its own job.  Therefore it metabolizes less fat, and more fat remains stored in the body, contributing to weight gain and further inhibiting weight loss.
 
As far as temperature of the water goes, the colder the better for losing weight.  Drinking ice-cold water speeds up the metabolism, which must work extra hard to keep the body temperature from dropping.
 
But how much water is enough?  On average, a person should drink at least 64 oz. per day.  An overweight person needs one additional 8 oz. glass for every 25 pounds of excess weight.  And coffee, tea, soda or any other beverage is not a substitute for clean, pure water.  - GCNM
 
So drink up for your health!
 
 
How Many Calories Do You Need?
Your Weight x 10 and then add 30% to that amount.  (Example:  160 lb. person x 10 = 1,600.  1,600 x 30% = 480.  1,600 + 480 = 2,080 daily calories).  If this person is moderately active, consuming this many daily calories should help in maintaining weight.  Anything less should result in weight loss.
