Thirst

Added carbs and somehow went from being hardly ever thirsty and drinking way too little, to drinking 4 liters a day. What happened? Why am I so thirsty? :/
Seems like I'm also holding the water since I suddenly gained weight and actually ate less.

    Extreme thirst can be attributed to diabetes. Eating more carbs can make your blood sugar rise. Maybe get a blood test done to rule that out?

    I would definitely get checked for diabetes, just in case. Hopefully it's a false alarm.

    However, adding carbs can also make you thirsty. I drink between 3 and 4 liters a day, every day. I'm thirsty without it now!

    I agree, that's one of the biggest signs of diabetes.
