4 500 ML water bottles is 64 ounces you are reccomended to get 8 8 ounce glasses of water (64 ounces) to loose weight/optimul hydration.

I drink 5 water bottles a day about 72 ounces of water and i have lost 10 lbs in 2 months albeit i am putting on muscle too that masks my weight loss.
And you loose less weight as you loose more overall bare in mind.

Note 1 water bottle is about 17-19 ounces

Flavoured water has calories..
500 ml x 4 bottles = 2,000 ml or 2 litres a day is the goal for optimul loss, after that i heard it doesnt help much more.

drink about 2-3 liters per day

Flavoured water rots your teeth and is also bad for you..many people think it is healthy...when sadly it isn't  :-/

Below is a Q&A from a health page on the web....

have a friend who just got over having cancer and is now on dialysis. I've been trying to tell her the importance of nutrition and drinking water. She does not like water so she consumes a certain flavored water drink. How good is this for her if any? Thank you.

Some flavored water drinks add just a touch of fruit to flavor the water. This is fine. Glaceau makes some excellent fruit and vitamin waters. Some flavored waters have sugar or artificial sweeteners so they aren't as good. The extra sugar adds calories and no nutritional value and anecdotally, some people seem to react badly to artificial sweeteners. Your friend should check with her doctors about fluid intake, too.
