If I drink 48oz of water in 1-2 hours, does it have the same positive effect as it would if I spread it out throughout the day?

# I have a hard time making myself drink water, so sometimes I just try to get it all in within a couple hours. But it got me thinking, does it help my body the same way as it would should I drink small amounts throughout the day.

Bodies are different, and in the end you have to figure out what works for you, empirically. But my experience is, if I drink a lot of water all at once, say, two liters, I’m suddenly a lot less thirsty (go figure), I start needing to pee a lot for an hour or two, and in three or four hours, I’m back to being thirsty. But if I drink a liter every two or three hours, the water lasts me longer without me getting parched.
