On a water fast, you're not consuming any calories and, therefore, able to create the deficit required to lose weight. You need to reduce your caloric intake by 3,500 calories to lose 1 pound. The amount of weight you lose after a water fast depends on how long you're fasting and your typical caloric intake. For example, if you normally eat 2,000 calories a day and fast for three days, you may lose almost 2 pounds during your water fast. However, when you lose weight too quickly, more than 2 pounds in a week, you may not be burning those unwanted fat pounds; you'll lose muscle and water instead.
Water makes up more than half of your body weight. You lose water each day when you go to the bathroom, sweat, and even when you breathe. You lose water even faster when the weather is really hot, when you are physically active, or if you have a fever.
