OK, this might weird some people out, and its not meant to, but some times I pee a lot more than others, and it doesn't seem to make a huge difference what I drink, yesterday I was like the queen of pee, I had to go behind a tree in the woods (sorry if TMI) while we were walking, not once, but twice! I don't have an infection, so its not that, I just wondered if anyone has the same thing with it as me? Today, the scale has gone down, so its not a bad thing, (well other than the public peeing) but I just want opinions please.

    How consistent is your water intake? If you're constantly up and down with it, you'll probably have to go a lot more on days where you drink a lot. Once you get used to a certain amount of fluids, you shouldn't have to pee as often. Unless you're pregnant, in which case your bladder will be shoved out of the way by a baby, and you'll have to pee every 5 minutes or so. :laugh:

    I wish I could help - I need to pee all the time too and it drives me crazy. I avoid going for long walks where I know there won't be washrooms and stuff. I won't go to clubs/bars if they only have like one or two stalls cuz the wait is so ridiculous - I end up leaving the washroom, dancing for half an hour, then getting back in line to wait another half an hour cuz I know I'll need to pee again!! :(

    I pee a lot. My husband has to plan our trips based on bathroom stops.

    Lots of times he just has to pull the car over some where so I can pee outside.

    It's just how I am. *shrugs*

    karen, you are not alone!!
    I regularly get caught short as well, especially with all the water I drink these days. I walked the Newport to Cowes cycle track on Friday, and was only about half way before I was desperate. But there were nettles everywhere so I had to keep going!!

    I drink 4 liters of water a day....


    I pee....a lot. Sometimes I think I should join the adult industry and do watersports videos....yep I pee THAT much.

    Its ridiculous.

    also on your forest note.

    I was stuck on 680N in Fremont in heavy traffic. I had to pull off the road and pee while people were honking at me. Not a good idea to down a liter of water right before a 90 minute commute lol

    YES...I pee a lot....I love water! My Dr said I take in too much liquids as my sodium is low, and the ARC will not take my blood for that reason..low sodium. Sorry, but it is a fact of life for some of us and it has nothing to do with age.:)

    I think anyone who's trying to drink at least 8 cups of water will end up having to pee - a lot!

    Since I started c25k, my output is much more variable. Days that I run, I don't need to go. The next day it pours out. I see it on the scale as well.

    I pee a lot too. I have to get up at least 2-3 times a night to go to the bathroom, regardless of how much I drank through the day. I actually had a test done years ago and they found I have a small bladder :grumble: :blushing: Long trips are not a good thing for this chick!

    If it's bothering you and getting in the way of your day-to-day life, which it sounds like it is, you should go and see your doctor and see if they can do anything for you.

    Do you pee a lot or just have the urge to pee a lot? If it's not a uti or any other infection, it could be overactive bladder. Or you're just drinking a lot of water.

    If you are seeing pee on your scale you need to move the scale or pee further away from it :laugh: :laugh:
