I'm trying to drink water instead of coke as I've had 5 warnings today that if I dont drink more water it might lead to health problems. The thing is I can only fit one bottle of water in my school bag and at school i cant go to toilet at lunch or break because of this club im in and it takes about 15 minutes just to get through the cues for the toilets. So how can I drink more I keep trying to drink more when im at home on the night time but as soon as i drink i want to go to the toilet desperately afterwards and I couldnt cope with that at school how am i going to do this.

Firstly, having read the other answers I agree with a lot of the statements that say replace the pop with water - but what about eating more foods with a higher water content? These could include apples, pears, melon,etc.
I don't know how old you are but I think it is a good thing you are thiinking about this, try not to stress to much however because cutting down on the fizz is probably more important at the moment. Do it a little at a time then it won't be such a shock and you are more likely to keep it up.

Does the school have fountains/bubblers? If so fill the bottle and use through the day. Also buy a bigger bag! Replace coke with water. You need 6-10 cups of water a day. If you're afraid you'll need the bathroom(toilet) then wear a pad incase you slip some pea. Don't worry your body will wait til your ready to use the toilet to let it out. Good Luck!

What kind of club have you joined? If you can't use the toilet at break or lunch try asking a teacher during classes. Drinking water is important and I'm sure the coke cola cause you to go to the toilet. Ask your doctor if you have blatter promblems because it seems like you got it in your mind when I drink water the next secound I have to pee.

your body will get used to all th water, at first your body is going to make you go to the bathroom cause its used to having coke/pepsi.it'll get better soon. As well for school i think that your club should maybe wait 15-20 minutes before starting. Its important to stay hydrated. you have to make the time to go to the bathroom at school, you can ask the teacher to be excused to use the bathroom, im sure they wouldnt object. Or you can drink small amounts more frequently, so instead of chuggin the whole bottle of water at once make it last a couple of hours and re fill it. i hope that this is a bit helpful

I usually do drink allot of water. My chiropractor stated each and every physique beverages too little water. I informed him I drink tea and juices yet he stated they're meals and not water. undeniable previous water is nice for the joints. we are fortunate now here in Hungary, i purchase mineral water for roughly 25 cents for 2 liters. i might desire to confess, being new here and all, i'm eating now and back somewhat greater wine then water.What the heck, it extremely is chilly exterior and we don't might desire to do something we don't choose for to, why no longer savor somewhat. We usually flow by 2 liters an afternoon for 2 human beings , no longer adequate. the day previous, I did drink approximately 2 one million/2 liters of water on my own. i became super thristy and laid off the wine for an afternoon. sounds like am an alcoholic yet i'm no longer, it extremely is almost greater low-value to drink wine here then water and it would not make you unwell or hungover like some wines we would drink interior the states, very sparkling and crisp tasting.

As you flush out the toxins and excess fluid in your body the need to urinate so frequently will diminish. Start your water regimen on the weekend and it should help. for school get a large sports bottle that you can carry in your hand and fill it before leaving home. Drink smaller amounts throughout the school day, this should also help reduce the trips to the bathroom.

The 2 litre bottles as used by drinks companys are ideal for carrying water. Water has a bland taste ,try some lemon juice in it, it will be more palatable.
Get a note from your doctor stating that you will be drinking extra water for theraputic purposes, and as a result you must be given more time to go and relieve yourself..

I decided to start drinking more water a few years ago. I now drink 2 litres every day. Your bladder does get used to holding more water over time. For a start I was peeing every 5 minutes. I don't drink tea or coffee now, just water and feel loads better for it.

well only take one bottle with you to school that should be more than enough to keep you hydrated and busy at most.
home drink a glass a dinner... another later before bed... drink a glass at breakfast... make sure you evacuate as best as you can.. it'll be a pain in the rear at first but over time your body should get used to it and you should get used to the timing of when you have to go.
such as how much time it is between the glass and when you must evacuate.
don't drink more than your body can handle by the way take your time.
timing is the essence and don't over do it.

I agree buy a bigger school bag...You shouldn't drink water in large amounts, small sips and often are the best way for your system.
You'll know if you're drinking water in too large of amounts as it WILL run straight through your body and your body won't benefit the same, as it sounds it has with you...remember, small sips and often...Good luck
