I usually drink at least a gallon of water a day(not all at once) because i'm constantly thirsty. (recently tested for DIABETIES twice=negative) and I don't even eat salty foods or anything like that. But anywho, i'm sick and tired of always haveing to ask to go to the bathroom during class so I tottally ditched water during classes even though I usually drink a ton of water. I just started and so far I drank maybe 3liters of water..possibly more. and my pee isn't yellow or anything like that. So is my body going to threw any changes like weight gain,massive headaches,ect? HONESTLY PLEASE. EMERGANCY.

As long as your urine is still light, you're drinking plenty. You shouldn't have anything to worry about.

90% of the american population are chronically dehydrated. I wouldnt worry about it. Do your friends have headaches or weight gain??? MOst likely not and they dont drink that much water. Also... As long as you are still drinking some water per day, that is still better than most. Dont substitute FOOD for your missing water and weight gain wont be an issue. Drinking ICE cold water when you have no reason to be hungry is good for you. Good luck

They say '8 glasses of water' a day is what you need. If your pee is a light shade of yellow, then you're nicely hydrated. if it's pure water looking, then you're actually drinking more than you need - which in moderation won't be too bad for you either.
Tip - if you've drunk enough water and still feel thirsty, try sucking ice cubes, or chips. It will relieve your thirst, but you won't have to offload so much water in the bathroom!

the body's water and sugar level (along with other shi*) has to stay on a certain lvl for us to function. You look alrite to me so its fine. We suppose to drink 3 litres of water a day if u do that thats great but the main purpose of water is sustaining life. If u aint dying then dont stress.

I drink a lot of water in the summer and hardly any in the winter.
I haven't had any adverse affects. But of course, you do need liquids during the day, so drink something.

keep drinking the water as you are now. as long as your urine is a light yellow you are fine. i also drank a great deal, but now i don't need to drink as much.

no nothing will happen to you. your still drinking water or somthing so you'll be just fine. if you stopped drinking all together then i'd say you may have a problem. :)

maybe your body can't take any more water. We don't care about the color of your pee.

I don't think it would make a difference.
