I drink a lot of liquids...

[BlAzInIt4:20]

So i drink alot alot alot of whatever im drinking. I eat a plate of dinner with 5 cups of water. And then when im done i drink about 5 more cups. When i go out and have coffee i drink about 4 cups of coffee before the food even arives, and after im done eating i will just drink the rest of the pitcher. They end up leaving a pitcher because they dont want to keep coming back to refill.

So why do you think this is?

Also with lemonade i can drink about 3 pitchers back to back.

Just that cold feeling of liquids down my throat.. i dunno..

And no im not fat, iv actually been losing alot of weight... and the way i drink liquids has never effected my weight for some reason...

I think i need a Drink

[BizzleLuvin]

hmm well my dog has cushings disease which is an adrenal/thyroid problem and it makes him drink like 3 or 4 gallons of water per day. perhaps you have cushings disease, humans get it too, especially when they are older.

[BlAzInIt4:20]

well babe im young... so i dunno lol

[5016169]

I drink a lot too. People always think I'm diabetic (WTF!?)

[smokerider]

Intense thirst is a classic sign of diabetes.

[IThinkIamFeelingit]

I drink strawberry quik...over a half a gallon a day

[BizzleLuvin]

you could have cushings disease and diabetes, double whammy

[BlAzInIt4:20]

well that blows :(

[BizzleLuvin]

yeah you best see your doctor..
but honsetly i think you are just fine

[IThinkIamFeelingit]

whenever I have bad news, I now know who will deliver it for me. LOL

[zane929]

i know exactly how you feel man, sometimes i will chug some cool liquids down even if im not thirsty (or even really too fucking full to be drinking anything) just for the feeling of it going down my throat lol. gatorade is my fav for this, i can pull those so quickly.

i think what you're describing is pretty normal though. i mean i don't drink quite as much as you but it doesnt seem unhealthy or too crazy to me, you just like to drink!

[mattisnotonfire]

Hmmm.

I'm a student nurse at the moment, from a medical point of view, its a symptom of diabetes.

Probably type 1 if you are still quite young.

Or maybe you just have a high metabolism or something...

[Purple Banana]

Cushings isn't likely, Bizz- chances are he'd be overweight with purple striae on his abdomen, and usually a round moon-shaped face. I had Cushings, but I got the tumor on my pituitary gland removed, and it definately helped.

It really does sound like symptoms of diabetes, type I. Frequent thirst, and weight loss are big indicators. Does your urine have a sweet smell, are you tired, do you often have dry skin?

I'd get it checked out with your doctor. If you have a diabetic friend, see if you can get your blood sugar checked- anything between 70-99 is normal, a bit higher though after you've eaten, so try before a meal.

But if this is an often occurrence, I'd definately see your doctor, just to see if it IS a problem. Drinking a lot is good to keep you hydrated, but you don't want to overwork your kidneys and heart.

[Captain Hanks]

Of course you're not overwheight. Drinking water helps you burn wheight, especially when it's cold (your body has to burn calories to heat it up). A good method on figuring out how much water you need is multiplying your body-wheight by .66 and then dividing by 8. This is how many 8oz glasses of water you need daily, more or less, but a great estimate. Also, don't drink liquids with your meals. It ruins your digestion.

[Gothen]

But, not drinking liquids with meals is next to impossible. How many people actually eat anything without having something to drink??

And edit: there is NO way I could drink 20.6 8oz glasses of water a day, I'd vomit, but...its a good thought, if I could.

[bunnyc]

Maybe your glasses are very small:)

[beachguy in thongs]

Do you want to go out for a beer? I know this perfect place. I've known tons of lesbians who frequent this bar/restaurant. They have live entertainment, too!

[PENCIL]

i'm the same way man, i drink at least 6-8 bottles of poland spring a day and countless bottles of gatorade and propel. i don't know why, i just always like to be drinking something.

but right now i'm sippin on a little different kind of liquid haha, just gettin' my night started.

[IThinkIamFeelingit]

I drink a half of gallon of pomegranite juice a day

[BizzleLuvin]

you are going to die

[BabyFacedAbortion]

LMAO, you guys are cracking me the fuck up tonight.

I drink a lot too, mostly vitamin water. I drink that shit non-stop.

[IThinkIamFeelingit]

ROTFL...Water = Death

No water = Death

What should a person do..

I drink a half of gallon of clamato a day

[Purple Banana]

Geeze, I can't believe how stupid you all are by drinking water.

Water is the leading cause of floods. Floods that destroy homes, kills people, drowns babies, famish crops, carry all kinds of disgusting diseases, and murder puppy dogs.

It has been scientifically proven that if you inhale less than 2 ounces of water, YOU WILL DIE.

Every evil person on the face of this earth drank water. Especially terrorists. You don't support terrorists, do you?

Water is also a bad influence on children. Look at Hurricane Katrina. Do you really want your children being exposed to such violence?

Why do you think cats hate water? They're highly evolved species who simply can't communicate the very real dangers of water in a way humans can plainly understand. Our brains simply aren't developed enough to de-code their communication.

Remember, Americans- when you drink water, you let the terrorists win.

Whoa.
I think it's time for a doctors appt with a full check up.

It's good to drink but you sound almost like you NEED it and that's not good.
Have them do full blood work and urine. :(

[BlAzInIt4:20]

[stinkyattic]

You take lithium by any chance?

[sLiMBLaZeDD420]

I drunk probably 3 big powerades a day before noon during the summer working with my uncle. Roofing is a killer but now I'm in college so not near as much fluids.

:jointsmile:

[IThinkIamFeelingit]

I drink a butt load of fluids when I am working outside....sometimes I drink a half a gallon of mango juice..that is when I am thirsty.

[growwatcher]

LOL :D

I like the water/weed analogy. That is a cool way to think of it. Also you can die from drinking too much water, but it takes a lot. You cannot OD on weed.

That is fantastic! It's a very hard disease. to live with. I don't have it but relatives did.
Anyways, as long as you're healthy...:thumbsup:
