I've grown curious, I've always been one to drink A LOT of water, I always opt for water, watered down juices over any and all sweet and carbonated beverages, but since I began using My Fitness Pal and counting the glasses and ounces of water I consume, today I consumed over 64oz of water and I have been going to the bathroom every 30 minuets. It's a full bladder, empty the tank sensation, not a "possible urinary problem, or infection etc.) BUT with this it brings valid questions, if we're all drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day, shouldn't we all be using the bathroom on a frequent basis? Or I've got some explaining to research. Thanks in advance, Feel free to add me.

    the more you drink the more you pee. I pee twice a day and get in about 5 glasses of water. it may depend on the size of your bladder. how much do you pee at once? okay and i know you say its not a possible problem but what you just described is a big sign of diabietes.

    Yep, but if you keep drinking that much water on a daily basis, eventually your body will adjust, allowing you to "go" less frequently!

    Well, since i started mfp..ive been drinking water like i dont have anything else to reach for. And, Uhh..yes, ive been peeing like nobody's business. I know i dont have diabetes. First off..if your watching the amount of starch you eat..then you dont have anything to absorb the fluids..therefore, you will pass the liquids.

    Honey, I pee ALL the time. It kinda sucks cuz I'll be out somewhere for lunch and have to pee at least 2x during and once after lunch. I also have to pee in the middle of the night; I pee 3x each night. I can't stand it when I'm trying to shop and I have to pee (nothing like peeing in a grocery store restroom, yuck!). Glad I'm flushing out toxins, but DANG it gets annoying! :)

    Perhaps have a chat to your doctor about it, if you are concerned. I've noticed that I've been using the bathroom more than usual as well. Everything's normal on my end, I've just upped my water consumption is all.

    I pee all the time. It used to get to me, but now I just visualize peeing out all the fat. Weird I know, but it makes it kind of fun to go.

    yup! I pee all the time. I go to a 2 hour Bible Study and I pee at least twice while I am there and immediately when I get home again. None of the old ladies have to, but there I am, the youngest one and I am going pee all the time!

    It gets better, as another poster said - your body will adjust. When I first started pushing 8-10 glasses a day I was peeing every 20 minutes... literally and getting up 2-3 times a night. Now I can chug 2 glasses before bedtime and make it all night without getting up but my bladder is a GREAT alarm clock. I probably pee about 5 times a day now instead of 20.

    Hahaha yes. Add a little caffeine to the mix? I'll be in the bathroom 3 times just over the course of my lunch hour. People notice. They tease me, but not in a mean way :P
