H20


There is a good chance I might drink too much water during the day. I'm not 100% sure why I do, but I tend to drink at least 80 -100 ounces during my 8 hour work day (then more at night). The downside to this, I typically use the restroom about four to five times a day (TMI?). Towards the end of the day, I'm going to the restroom every hour.

Hydration is very important. I base my hydration on the color of my piss, does that make me crazy. I remember a long time ago, I learned that if it is clear, then you are well hydrated. If it's yellow, you need more water. Does it make me crazy, that I look at the color and determine if I'm ready to do exercise. I try to drink as much water as possible, so that it's always clear. But sometimes external forces (such as beer) inhibit this phenomenon.

Am I crazy... or does everyone do this?
