I'm finding that I'm always thirsty!  I've been exercising more, but still I drink A LOT and still feel thirsty.

Hey there,\nIf you're drinking enough that you're really worried about it, you may want to go see a doctor. Always being thirsty can be a sign of a number of things gone wrong.\n\nThat being said, being thirsty when you've been working out is almost to be expected. When you work out, you sweat a lot. The sweat contains a high salt content, and when your body is low on salt, then you will be thirsty (salt allows your body to retain water.) Also, when you're in better shape, you sweat more, so dehydrate faster.\n\nAll that being said, pass by your gp. Odds are, he'll (she'll) check your blood sure and electrolytes, and tell you that you're in good shape. Also remember, you should be drinking minimum 2 litres of water per day, or 8 glasses, and another 2 glasses for every glass of caffeinated drink that you're drinking (soda, tea, coffee). So if you're still drinking less then that, there's nothing to worry about.\n\nEric

I have a few suggestions, maybe your not getting enough excersise, the more you get the better. Another thing is maybe your depressed. Good luck!!

with my experience If I drink allot of water I start to crave MORE watter the next day. BUT needing to drink allot of water is a sign of Diabetes so if it continues I would go to a doc and check it out. :)

That means your pushing your muscles to the limit, which is a good thing. However, when this happens, it is important to keep plenty of fluids in your body to prevent muscle cramping and dehydration.

THE LEAN CUISINE MIGHT CAUSE YOU TO RETAIN WATER... IT'S NOT HOW MUCH YOU EAT AS WHAT YOU EAT, STAY AWAY FROM PROCESSED FOODS THAT ARE HIGH IN SODIUM... CHECK YOU CALORIE INTAKE VS. CALORIES BURNT PER DAY THIS SHOULD HELP...

you drink that much because your body is telling you to drink.  maybe you just get dehydrated easily.  regardless, you can never drink too much water.

No. You should have 6-8 to keep properly hydrated. One is not nearly enough. I jazz my water up with lemon, or limes and ice and a straw..goes down easier that way. Also try seltzer water, sometimes the bubbles help make it feel more like soda.\n\nkeep/get drinking

You drink WAAYY too much water!!!\n20 glasses??  Sheesh!\n\nDrink when you're thirsty.  Period.\nIf you're thirsty enough to WANT 20 glasses, then you probably have diabetes.\nOtherwise, just stop drinking so much!!

Yes.  I think I have done the most of what I was born with.  I weight train consistently 3 days a week and do cardio 1-2 times a week.  I also try to eat somewhat healthy and I can look at myself in the mirror proudly.  I don't have the best mug..but it ain't ugly either!

I find working out and drinking lots of water seriously helps you have energy...it may not seem like it because working out wears you out, but your body gets energized from working out...so jog or do aerobics the night before. You will feel great the next day I promise.

It could mean you have been drinking more than you usually do.\n\nIt could also mean that you have a bladder infection.  It does not always have to burn when  you pee to have one.\n\nIf it continues then you should talk to your parents (if you are young) or your doctor to run a test to see if you do have an infection.\n\ngood luck!
