I'm back to work and can't drink as much water because I operate a ski lift in a remote location with only 2 bathroom breaks I can't leave the cotrolls what so ever in till breaked if I drank the amounts I had been I would end up peeing my pants I don't think it's a good idea to trytodrink extra at night I would have to wake up to many times... Wondering what possible effects on weight loss this will make

    No effect on your weight loss.

    I suggest doing a test on the weekend, drinking a full glass of water and then timing how long it takes for you to have the urge to go to the bathroom. It might be two hours like me. Then you know WHEN you can drink your water; two hours before your bathroom break.

    Probably no effect at all.

    I have also the same problems as a crane lift operations. I have the empty bottles but they fill quickly and then I am at the loss. I have to do down the side of the hoist to stream beneath. Surface tensions solve the direction straight downwards. Perhaps up the rope, which the ski lifters use? Do not urinate pants in the cold weather.

    Well I share my shack with ski patroll so as a girl no peeing in a bottle as it is I have to treck in deep snow out of view of guests to pee hoping not to dip my rear in the snow my break is simply not long enough to use the lodge now if other issues come up they have no choice I head into the lodge lol

    Sip on water to keep yourself feeling not thirsty but not needing the rest room. If you feel dehydrated then drink more after work. Shouldn't slow down your weight loss at all.

    I am going to be doing the same work you do this month, haven't started yet, but I will be in similar predicament. Being 62 years old, and partially incontinent since my hysterectomy last year, I wear disposable pants. They aren't noticeable under the layers of snow gear that we wear, and give me peace of mind for those times when I lose it. :o

    I would just limit your fluid intake when you won't have free access to facilities and up your intake when you're at home and can use the restroom more freely.
