TMI question.. Oh gosh!

HOney I go thru the same thing.....It will even out ..took me about a month. Meanwhile I just count up the bathroom trips as exercise cause mine us Upstairs! lol

I felt the same way....I was told what goes in must come out...:) I also gave up soda's except for a once in awhile treat. Dr. OZ convinced me to give up the soda. Love my water!

It's water.. it makes you pee!! Consider it an extra workout! I have added 2000 steps, almost a 1 mile to my routine just by drinking more water...

You drink sodas they have crap in it that stays in your body...water helps flush the system so pee, pee, pee away till the pee is clear! Then drink more!

It is normal, just make sure you replace. I gave up soda almost 8 months ago now, havent had a single bit. The result, my stomach doesnt hurt anymore and Im not always thirsty like before It'll even itself out soon. Keep it up!:flowerforyou:

Your body will get used to it eventually and you'll stop peeing so much. I've always drunk about 10 glasses a day and depending on how much exercise I'm doing a day I only need to pee every 2-3 hours.

because you are flushing your system out of all the sodium your body was holding onto thats a good thing

Nope not the only one. It's a pain, but I use it to get more walking for the day. Our bathroom is about 40 steps from my cubicle at work. But instead of going the straight path, I go all around the walls of the building to go to the bathroom, so I get a little mini walk in everytime I go..lol

It's a good thing even though it's a hassle! Not only are you giving your body the increased water intake which is awesome, but the absence of soda (which makes your body retain fluids) is letting your body flush the extra fluids out. Whether you were drinking regular or diet soda, I've read they are both connected to bloat and fluid retention. It should even out but in the meantime your body will feel leaner and cleaner without all the unnecessary fluid retention and bloated tissues. I know that dietary carbohydrates bind to water to allow the carbs to be metabolized, so you could be releasing some of that water retention as well by the absence of soda. Either way, you are on the right track to health.....so keep it up and stay near a bathroom!

I read an artlcle recently that says if you're not going to the bathroom every 1.5 hrs, you're not getting enough water.

This is the result of drinking more water than your body actually needs. Sure, drinking a relative excess of water won't harm you, but as you're seeing, it'll make you pee far more than before.

Your 8 glasses a days doesn't mean you have to actually DRINK 8 glasses of pure water a day. Don't forget you get a large portion of this from your fruit/veg, not to mention tea/coffee/soda/juice etc.

One thing I've learned about myself. If I drink water ( liquids) it goes right through me if I don't have any food in my stomach.

Your system is being flushed out, it will lessen soon when your body has gotten used to it and cleansed itself.
