Hi, I'm afraid you're not allowed to drink water or any kind of liquids... I know that people are fasting in hot countries, but to be honest, the ones I have spoken to say one or two things; they change their routine so that they work at night, and sleep during the day, or that they dont feel the thirst... because God gives them the strength to keep the fast in the first place.... I'm sure there ARE many out there that feel thirsty, but you know, thats how it is - for us lucky ones, only for a short time, but for those that have this life day in, day out, no food, no water - its the norm.... I agree with whoever put in the comment that sure, when you're fasting, you wanna eat everything, but when you open your fast, the smallest thing fills you up... and yes, you do tend to eat even more of the richer foods in fasting, so I put weight on too!!!
