Dark Urine

So I'm about a little over a month post and I'm feeling and doing great with about 52lb drop so far. I'm getting my protien and my Water in everyday but I find that my urine is DAAAAARK, I'm wondering if anyone else has had this happen or if I'm living in a constant state of severe dehydration.

I'm getting about 70-90g of protien as per my Dr and 64-96oz of water... So what gives?

Mine is too. I think it's protein

Check with your Dr....I had this happen and it ended up being a kidney stone....came on all of a sudden one morning and I was in the worst pain of my life for 3-4 days (after spending hrs at Dr office and getting ct scan)....worse than childbirth....worse than RNY.

Mine is dark too !!!! I get minimum 64 oz. daily !!! I will tell my dr. and see what he says.

Mine is dark too but im only a week out, not getting much Water

Dark urine usually means its concentrated but, if you're getting in 64-90 oz per day doesn't sound like that's it. Are you drinking things with lots of color like grape koolaid? I know purple coloring can urine darker. Always best to check with your doc though.

I was on antibiotics and those caused my urine to be dark as well.

Check with your doctor. I am dealing with my 2 bladder infection this week. It is common after the surgery.
