Ok.. so I am trying to keep up witih my 64 oz of water a day.. BUT If i take ONE more freakin trip to the toilet I am going to rip it out of the floor and use it as a chair in front of me desk and just pee when needed!!!!

Does your body ever get use to all the water and adjust so your not in the bathroom every half hour?

    your body will get used to it!

    As you start to increase your exercise, your body will use more of it.

    Look at it this way: You're peeing your weight away!

    Yep. Generally, I have to go at least once per 20 ounce cup of water I drink at work. Sometimes twice, but no more than that.

    Well I've been doing this for 6+ months now, and I still pee at least every 45 mins or so...

    So I'm going to say No my body still isn't used to it. And it's very annoying.

    I've heard that if you are completely hydrated you will need to pee every 30 minutes. So great job on drinking enough water!

    I have been a water drinker for years - and I still can't go but an hour before having to go again :-(

    I slosh when I walk and my pee is clear. Between filling my water bottle and pee'ing, I am rarely at my desk.

    i totally get the feeling!!!! i drink about 3 liters of water (and a 16.9 oz diet pepsi) while i am at work :) for me though it is a little bit of a mental thing and a slight avoidance tactic from doing paperwork! :)

    Working out hard helps. I must have drank 12-16 8oz glasses of water yesterday, but worked out for an 1hr 20 mins, and had a dehydration headache for a few hours.

    I drink 80 oz a day. When I first started drinking a lot of water, I peed every 20 minutes. Yes, your bladder will adjust to the large amount of water. Also, don't chug down water, it'll go right through you.
