LOL!!! Anyone with me?! I am trying to drink half my weight for the challenge everyday and its killing my bladder! Poor thing is ALWAYS full.. Me and the bathroom have a new found friendship because I am in there so much! I cant wait until I get use to the extra water im drinking so I can stop taking so many trips! I feel like I should pack a bag and move in there!

    Hahaha it does get better, but avoid fountains and waterfalls
  • I am right there with ya honey....My bathroom is upstairs. So I look at it as getting some exercise in at the same time. LOL
  • Try to drink water at room temperature.

    LOL! I'm not doing a challenge, but I tend to drink a lot of water and I'm having the same issue. This week I've decided to limit my water intake between 4-6pm because I'll always be commuting home and feel like I'm going to bust. LOL.

    I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN! Oh my gosh. It's so annoying. I've been drinking like I do (15-20 cups of water...sometimes up to 25 cups!) for months and months and months. And my body never stops peeing. I pee all the live long day.


    But when I cut down on water, I'm way too thirsty. I like drinking the water. I like what it does for me.So...I'll deal with the pee. But it really sucks. Lol

    (:
  • Half your body weight in ounces of water you mean? I'm just trying to do the 8 8 oz glasses recommended each day and I feel like I'm going to the restroom ALL the time!!! I've done it for about ~2 weeks now...hopefully it'll get better soon!

    Half your weight in water? Be careful! Don't drink too much at once. You can overload your body and die.

    It does get better, just take caution in how much water you are drinking at one time. While water is always good for you, too much is bad. It can cause water intoxication which to the body (but not the mind) mimics drowning in fresh water.

    My recommendation: find a good book or discover a new game on your phone!

    Right there with you. I never drank much water until the last few weeks and I'm in there constantly. I used to be in there every 30 min. but now its every 10.

    That doesn't even mention the fact on how much toliet paper we go thru. lol
  • I haven't been taking a challenge, but I have been trying to up my water intake on my own (9 cups on a regular day, and 12 when I work out...) AND - I completely agree! I have been going pee like 6-8 times a day (just during work hours!) ;)
    I feel good about doing it, but I also hope that my body starts to get used to it a little more...
  • LMAO That is soo true.:flowerforyou:
  • i feel ya. sometimes i pee so much i get scared nd think i have diabetes. Or worse, a kidney problem.....

    I dont think it is necessary to drink that much honestly. Just enough to keep hydrated

    It will pass once your body adjusts.

    I look forward to that day! That will be my NSV! Not peeing every 10-15 mins. lol

    Started trying to drink more water yesterday and went to the bathroom SO many times! I even had to get up a couple of times in the night!
  • I have always maintained that the weight loss associated with drinking more water is due to the extra exercise one gets walking to and from the bathroom 98797272 times/day. :wink:
  • For me, it's at the point where I'll walk down the hallway of my office and almost everyone remarks, "Going pee again?"

    Yes. I am. Thank you for asking.

    I've been drinking over 100 oz of water a day for almost a year and I'm still waiting for my body to adjust. I have to go every 20-30 minutes.
    Unless your body adjusts better than mine did, I say get used to it. ;-)

    Drink smaller amounts of water slowly throughout the day, rather than large amounts all at once.
    Also put lemon and hydration minerals in the water, that way your body will be better able to absorb it into the cells rather than just passing it quickly through the body and expelling with it all your water-soluble vitamins.

    During the day I can handle it. It is the wake me up a couple times at night. Then the dog wants to go out because I'm up..

    I agree, the poor guys at work must think I have a problem or something...I know my other half hates when I wake up 2-3 times a night to go =( I feel way less bloated though.

    Try to drink water at room temperature.

    Ugh, IDK if I could do that! =/. I also heard that drinking ice cold water burns calories.. IDK if its true lol.. but it would be cool if it was!
