I've been trying to get more water lately. I went for a blood test the other day, and the nurse couldn't even find a vein. She said the main reason was that I was dehydrated. I had no idea since I don't really watch my water intake, but I was only getting about 3 glasses a day.

So today I started drinking lots. I'm aiming for 5 glasses of water, 1 glass of soy milk and then more fluids from other stuff such as soups. I'll add one glass for days I go to the gym. So far today I've had 4 cups water, 1 cup soy milk, some soup, and milk with cereal at breakfast. I swear I've had to pee every hour!! I was happy to get rid of D a whie ago, and now I'm back to the bathroom 15 times a day for a different reason!

Does anyone know if our bodies actually adapt and get used to this much fluid, and so we don't have to go as often after a while? Is this maybe too much fluid for me?

Thanks,
Kat
