There is a definite correlation between a lack of water consumption and weight loss failure.  This is because water is such an intrinsic part of good health and weight loss.  Water benefits your body in a number of ways, including boosting your metabolism, helping to burn fats, and working as an appetite suppressant.

An increase in water intake will help the endocrine glands to function better.  The endocrine glands increase the amount of fats that are broken down and used as fuel.  By increasing their function you will essentially increase the successfulness of your weight loss plan, and you can increase the speed at which you will achieve your weight loss goals.

Appetite Suppressant

Water is a natural appetite suppressant.  As such, the more water that you drink the less you will want to eat.  This can be an immense help when trying to lose weight.  Ideally, you should drink a glass of water before every meal.  This will help you to reduce the amount of calories you consume.  Also, drinking water between meals can help to reduce hunger pains.

Boosts Metabolism

Water also assists in boosting your metabolism. This is because of the role that water plays in your digestive system.  When functioning properly, the liver breaks down fat and distributes it as energy to the rest of the body.  However, when the kidneys are lacking water they have to rely on help from the liver.  This results in the liver storing fat in the body instead of breaking it down.  This stored fat then has to be broken down later through diet and exercise in order to achieve your total weight loss goals.

Water is one of the healthiest drinks you can consume.  It contains zero calories, no fat, and no cholesterol.  It reduces your fluid retention, allowing you to feel less bloated and giving you more energy.  So put simply, a lack of water consumption and weight loss is a catastrophic combination.  If you want to be successful in your weight loss you must drink water. The more water you consume the more weight you will lose and the easier it will be to achieve your weight loss goals.
