From what I have learned....

Actually the water amount goes by how much you weigh and how many extra
pounds you are trying to get off
You can die from drowning yourself

The cells in your body become saturated and are unable to expel the excess
faster than the water is being injested. You have do drink somewhere close
to 5 gallons in an hour though. 3 liters in an hour will usually make you
puke. There was a news article not too long ago about someone dying from
this during a radio contest. Check MSN.com's news archives I think that's
where I saw it.

hiya Rita,
You sure this will happen. When should one drink the water, I mean how do
you spread it across.
