Need more than 64oz of water?

[Angie1982 5]

Hello everyone! I have a question for u guys. So I am 7 days post op and so far so good. Today I drank my 64oz Water (with diluted crystal light) and my 3 Protein Drinks. I'm noticing that my urine is still dark yellow! Should I be drinking more?! Did anyone else have this problem too?! Please let me know what u think. (Ps....trying to get in MORE fluids will not be easy......64 is hard enough)

Could the color be impacted at all by the crystal light? Were you taking the same Vitamins when your urine was not such a dark color? Mine sometimes is darker right after vitamins.

Of course if your urine is consistently dark you should call your doctor. Was today the first day you hit the mark with the Water? Also maybe try some light colored lemonade and see if that doesn't lighten it some too.

I'm on all the same Vitamins and I hit my Water goal x2 days. Maybe my body is catching up? I'm going to watch a bit longer and if no improvement then I'll call my doctor. Otherwise everything else looks good (good heart rate,moist mouth,peeing several times a day, etc)
