I can't stop p**ing!!!

Even though I couldn’t be paid to drink water growing up, I've learned to love it in my adult years, especially through my weight loss journey. I completely understand the function and importance of water in our diets but I hate that it’s making me use the washroom so often!! (Too often!!!)

Over the past week I've probably been going 2-3 times an hour – maybe even more! I’m constantly going at night, which has become terribly inconvenient as it is killing my sleep. I usually drink 8-10 cups a day, maybe more on a workout day, and I have stopped drinking fluids after 6pm.

Having to use the washroom 8-10 times a day is disrupting my work, sleep and other activities. I would like some helpful advice, is there anything I can do to make this end?

When I first upped my water intake, this was happening to me as well.
It's really slowed down now that my body has adjusted to the increase.
Just give it time.

Same thing happened to me, I couldn't sleep through the night at all, it was so annoying! I guess my body adapted, it's not an issue anymore.

You'll adjust... but if it's persisting for an abnormally long period of time, you may have a UTI. A visit to the doc could be in order.

I experienced that as well and my body seemed to regulate the new water intake and now I can drink for several hours without having to go. You body will adjust...just stay with it!
