Water and weight loss

Okay, so it’s always been hard for me to drink water at all usually I’ll go days without drinking any water.. but I’d eat healthy but still gain weight.. well recently I’ve started forcing myslef to drink water I’ll get maybe 3 bottles in a day and I’ve been eating worse but have lost weight... could that little bit of water im getting help me lose weight?? Trust me I know my body needs more water, I’m working on it!
