since i was sick i have been drinking about 7 bottles of water a day along with milk, slim fast and other liquids (juice...)
anyways, i have cut back on the water, but pretty much had to live off liquids for about 2 or 3 days straight....
i am peeing CLEAR!....constantly, when i wake up its light yellow, and after i eat or somthing it may be light yellow, but for the most part its completely clear!!!
my q is, is it bad to pee clear this much>????

not at all, the color of our urine is dependant mostly on how much fluid we take in. Obviously if all you are taking in is fluid your urine is going to be very dilute, and appear clear.

well clear pee is not a bad thing. but seeing that your are living off of liquids for 2 or 3 days you may have problem. the slim fast milk and juices should keep you at a constant yellow tent. but its mostly clear. so since your peeing clear the slim fast is causing you to lose water weight. you should lose some of the slim fast. and just use about 8 to 10 GLASSES of water a day. because your kidneys are supposed to put out all of the chemicals and toxins that it finds. and slim fast has a lot chemicals in it. also the juices should be causeing a tint.

Clear isn't a bad thing. The darker your urine is, the more toxins you're excreting. So clear means your system is running pretty clean.
As for the amount of liquids, that won't hurt you. I would be far more concerned about the amount of Slim Fast than the amount of water. Slim Fast contains chemicals that cause you to lose weight.
If you want to go on a liquid diet to lose weight, try a juice fast. It's much healthier. For more information on that, visit http://www.rawfoodtalk.com and click on the Messageboard then the Juicing forum.

It is possible to drink too much water and have it have harmful effects on the body. You didn't say how large the bottles were, but 7 does sound kind of extreme. I'd cut back on the water some more...maybe 4 16oz. bottles per day would be enough. Unless you are so sick that you are vomiting...in that case, get to a dr.

I'm no doctor, but I think thats a good thing. I was hospitalised for dehydration 3 times last year, and each time my urine was nearly black, and that was once or twice a day, so by the sounds of it you're on the right track back to health. At least you know your kidneys are working...good luck!

Peeing clear is a sign that your healthy! The darker the urine, the more dehydrated you are! Keep drinking your H2O!
