sugar and thirst?

today i ate a fair few biscotti. not the greatest way to aid my weight loss but i'm back on track now. this was the first confectionery thing i've had in 3 weeks (apart from 2 chunks of dark chocolate) and it seemed to trigger a raging thirst. i drank about 3 pints of water afterwards to quench my thirst.

is this a normal body response or should i be alarmed?

    I am not a doctor. But. This is a sign of diabetes.

    yes, i know. its never happened before i cut out the rubbish from my diet though so i wondered if anyone else had experienced it as a 'one off'. the thirst has passed but if it returns like that i will go to get tested for diabetes.
