Have you ever heard of bloating? Retaining water is pretty much the same thing. Many people think that not drinking a lot of water will result in less blaoting or water retention but it's infact the exact opposite. Your body retains water when you're not drinking enough of it. The body tries to hold on to any water in its system for as long as possible because it's not receiving enough.
Water is essential to the body's functionality so it's important that it's getting enough of it.
Hope I helped somewhat...

"Retaining wateR" means youR body is stoRing wateR inside [often occuRing when bloated]. People Retain wateR, because they aRe not dRinking *enough wateR. The human body functions in a "PRimal SuRvival Mode". You see, it Responds accoRdingly to anything it peRceives as a possible thReat to its suRvival. ERGO, if you depRive youR body of laRge amounts of wateR, you aRe thReatening its suRvival. In Response, youR body kicks into its "PRimal SuRvival Mode" and holds onto eveRy dRop of wateR it possibly can foR futuRe needs and puRposes. Make sense?
