  • HELP! Water problem! Urgent

    OK...so I've been trying to get my water in. I know how important it is. My body is not taking it...meaning, I am now at work and I'm going to the bathroom every 10-15 minutes now. So far, I've only had about 48oz. since 7:30am (it's now noon). I could have drank more, but I've had to slow down because I was LITERALLY going to the bathroom, coming back to my desk sitting down, opening up a computer application, and then practically running back down to the bathroom AGAIN and I'm producing a full flow like I haven't been to the bathroom in hours.

    Is this normal? I really want to get my water in, but I might have to cut back because this is really bothering me (both productively at work, and physically it's getting tiring).

    If drinking water is new to your body, it will do that, and don't worry about it. Its actually flushing out pounds and that is good. (we talk about water weight and thats mostly how it goes) As you continue, you will hold or retain more and more and won't even have to get up in the middle of the night.

      I completely agree! I did this for the first couple of days, but I'm back to normal now after 6 days. Keep drinking it.

      Calling it GOAL at this point. I'm happy with where I am now and hope to stay there, or maybe even take it down a little more.

        not only the drinking but the Atkins program is a natural diuretic so you need the water!

          Yes. I would be learning this the hard way today. LOL I've got roughly 100oz. down so far today despite the difficulty. I thought I'd only had 96, but my bottle holds 16.9 oz., instead of just 16. I get off work in 10 minutes and hope to get in another 32 oz. before bed. *sigh*...LOL
