That's if weight loss was your goal. I don't see how it's a good way to achieve any goal. As LFC said, it's pointless.
The point of short-term water only diet is to divert all energy from costly food digestion that extracts nutrients to let body make full cleanup and repairs.
Ohhhh ok when I read 'water fast' I thought fasting from water. As in no water. So water is more essential than food. But I still wouldn't recommend it.
Like I thought you meant you drank no water and then drank large amounts in your op.

Didja see the link in the post just prior to yours?
So it helps the body repair itself by eating dead/damaged tissues. Which kind of makes sense. But I wonder if its worth the cost of depriving your body of basic nourishment?
It would have to help an awful lot for this to be the case.
