WATER - can't quench the thrist

[BronzedGoddess]

Do you have diabetes in your family? My husband just developed diabetes (type 1) and he was drinking around 2 gal. of water a day, but he already knew this was eventually going to happen. His sister developed it at 13. Point is, don't wait to get your blood sugar checked. When he went in to the doc his blood glucose level was at 500+, if he would have waited much longer he could have went into a diabetic coma.
I'm sure it's not the case in your situation, but it's best to be sure. Hope ya quench that thirst

Velvett, it is so strange .. I was JUST going to post this topic. Over the past week I have been drinking at least 2 gallons a day. I know that yesterday I went over three gallons because I picked up three fresh gallons at the store and this morning they were all empty.

Strange thing is I am CONSTANTLY thirsty. Tonight at Wal Mart I even broke open a warm jug of water just to get something to drink.

I was sweating like a pig for about four days straight and I'm wondering if this is my body trying to rebound it. So there is a gallon in the fridge and a half gallon in the freezer - the colder the better :]

"I was sweating like a pig for about four days straight and I'm wondering if this is my body trying to rebound it. "

Very likely.

When I work a long day (16 hrs) outside in 95 degree heat, I will consume 4 gallons plus of fluid (mostly Gatorade) and urinate very little, maybe 2 - 3 small voids the whole day.

Get tested for diabetes - fatigue + thirst are symptoms.

are you on a low carb diet?

i think this can contribute, b/c theres nothing to soak up the water in your system.

Also add sea salt to your diet
