urinating too much?

[scampbeast]

I understand that when I drink over 3l of fluid on a fast day I am going to visit the loo a lot. I don't understand why even when I only drink 2l on a fast day I seem to be going to the toilet a lot the next day.
Anyone else having this?

Yep. I also would like to know why.
Does my body not need at least SOME of the fluid

The key thing is little and often, not a pint or half pint when you think of it.

Your wee should be light straw coloured, too light and you've drunk more than needed, too dark and you'll need a little more.

It'll take your body a while to get into the swing of knowing it'll get enough and not hang onto it and then suddenly release it. It will take you a while to get to know your needs to get it right. Some days you will need more, some less.

Fat-burning has water as a waste product.
A BMJ article analysed what happened to body fat after it has been burnt and found that the oxidation of 10kg fat produces 11 kg water (as well as 28g C02)
Also, water and food are used for various bodily functions, then the residue is excreted.

oops, typo: 28kg
