Is rapid weight loss or weight loss attempt dangerous?

Yesterday I took 4 times the normal weight loss supplement dosage I usually take and I had severe dehydration after that was so bad, it put my health in danger.

A fitness instructor told me on his last day of work, that your liver needs water to burn fat and what I have concluded is that the more aggressive and fast your body tries to burn fat, the more hydration your liver will need to burn off the fat you are trying to burn off. I am lucky I was at home when I came up with this deep thirst, because if I had been out at a public park, I might have had to walk 12 minute to find a source of water.

I personally don't think it's that important. I've lost weight before even when I had horrible water intakes. This is because the body will hold on to the amount of water that it needs most of the time.

I usually experience the most dehydration while dieting when I've lost a good amount of glycogen though. This is because muscle glycogen is very involved in allowing the body to hold on to water which aids in hydration. And there's even sodium & potassium that can be stored with glycogen that when the glycogen is lost, you'll also lose those minerals as well.

Yes, Also you will gain the weight back quicker, weight loss needs to be gradual, and takes time

I've been told go slow with weight loss. Fast loss is bad.
