I usually keep a glass of water besides my plate and drink from time to time while I am eating. I don't know if its bad or not but if I don't drink water I may choke.

it doesnt matter, you can drink before and after mealls (especially after meals because you have to 'wash up' the food that you ingested). like on my case. when im starving really hard i tend to drink water first because im acidic and then after. according to wikipedia To function properly, the body requires between one and seven litres of water per day to avoid dehydration; the precise amount depends on the level of activity, temperature, humidity, and other factors.

Well it is adviced to drink water after 15 - 30 minutes after meal.That helps in proper digession of food.But still we drink along with meal.
Anyways good discussion ,rated +.

i feel when you drink it before it helps you fill up faster. so if you are wanting to lose weight this is a good idea! I know that people are supposed to have at least 64 oz a water a day!

I usually don't drink water while I am eating a meal. I drink a glass right after I am finished eating. I have always been like this. I know most people drink while they are eating. It's just your own personal preference.

Well, considering that your body is three quarter's water, I think drinking water at any time would be good. I drink water all day long, and I do usually drink water with my meals. Water can dilute things, so if you think about it, it might be good to drink with your mean so that the fat doesn't stay with you so long and you don't feel stuffed. God bless and ciao for now.
