Liquids lost swimming in hot water distance swim?

Given water is 87 degrees Given air is 90 degrees Distance 2 miles Time swimming time around 50 min. How much fluid will be lost (sweat)? Anyone want to hazard a guess? I am thinking 3 pints? = 3 pound... I plan to weigh myself prior to and after the race. Results should be interesting.

    Into Chris Greene Lake weighing 187. Out of Chris Greene Lake 46 and 1/2 minutes later weighing 182. Five pints of Virginia "sweet tea" later weighing 187. For some reason, my body has suddenly decided it wants me pleasingly plump. Oh, hell. Who am I kidding. I have joined the ranks of America's morbidly obese. National Runner-Up in the 2-mile Cable Swim, and pound for pound, probably the fastest in my age group. How many wee breaks?
