How long could someone that weighs around 120 lbs go without water before they get severely dehydrated?

Shadow:

This likely hinges on more factors than weight, such as age and general body health. Likely though, detrimental effects of dehydration would set in within a few hours. A day without water would definitely count as severe dehydration. The general limit for how long the human body can last without water is three days, so depending on how you define 'severe hydration,' it could be somewhere between or close to there.

DeHatinOnBella:

many people can survive weeks without food but can't last more than 2-4 days without water
