Question about pee color (sorry)



Recommended Posts

color of urine has nothing to do with whether or not fat is being burned. You can test that with Ketone strips.

Clear pee means you are well hydrated. Dark pee means you are not drinking enough,

This ususally means that you are either getting more Vitamins then you need or your vitimans aren't being absored well. I would still take them but maybe consider a liquid gel or liquid Vitamin.

The bright yellow is mostly just the excess and doesn't hurt you but as some Vitamin companies (that claim to be more absorbed say) you're peeing down your money.

Urine should look like Water and poop should float, believe it or not. ;)

LMBO :pound:At least I can say my pee is clear most of the time (except after my vitamins), but my poop has never floated. I believe what you say b/c you seem to be very intelligent, but this struck me as funny.

Huh I always thought it was the opposite Wheetsin, that your poop was supposed to sink, if it floated you were sick. But I heard that many years ago, lol, either way I love this thread. Hehe ;)

Opera had a doctor "forgot his name" but he authored the book called "You - the owners manual" and he advociated the "poop" float... the sinking kind is bad but the floating kind is good.

He also brought on the show real live (I mean dead) intenstines and showed healthy vs unhealthy... wow that was gross but interesting. Made me want to get my Fiber in for life.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
