How Often Do You Pee?!



Recommended Posts

hi guys! its been almost 3 months out, and I am doing great! however, I have a hard time drinking my 68 oz of Water. I have noticed I pee like 3 x a day..... and am worried its too little! is everybody out there the same? or is it only me? Should I drink more water?

Ya...direct correlation. Drink lots. Pee lots. If you're not going a lot, that means your body is clinging to what it's getting and needs more. Generally speaking. You should be "overflowing."

Blugirl, I'm about the same as you. I don't go as often as I used to. Now I know part of it was the Water pill I was taking, but it still seems like I don't go that often. I usually get 50oz of pure water, not counting any shakes, popsicles, Soup, etc. I said I don't feel sick, dehydrated, etc and I'm still losing, so I guess it's ok.

My suggestion is to always carry Water wih you. I always have my bottle water with me any where I go even if it's for a 10min trip to the store. You would be suprise how much more water you consume that way.

Blugirl same thing here for me too! Even if I drink 64 oz of Water I am going 3 times per day!

I don't pee as much as I did in the past but I think it's also because I'm not as heavy as I was and there isn't the fat pressing down on my bladder. I'm drinking about 60oz of Water - then my shakes and tea. I use to wake up in the middle of the night several times to go and now I can sleep through the night but go a ton when I wake up.

I pee alot but I drink a lot. I am almost six weeks out and I drink 2 thirty two oz Water bottles, Protein drink, Decaf coffee, popsicles, etc.

I carry my Water bottles with me in my sachi, a ventilated lunch bag. I also have an ice pack in it so it keeps them cool.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
