See?! It old you guys those charts were out there. There was one in the bathroom stall at a Forest Ranger station in CO. My buddy and I laughing our butts off.
Life is short. Play hard and get dirty doing it.
I remember the days of green pee... wrestling taught me alot on how not to treat my body, mainly how that it sucks to function on only a cup of coffee, two cookies and an orange three days a week. Thank god for triathlons and the obscene amount of eating required to stay energized!

yeah a girlfriend and I were talking the other day. She read some ad for "over active bladder syndrome". It said if you pee more than 8 times a day you may have it...HELLO I pee that many times by the time I start work (ok, maybe 1/2 that but you get the point)
I had 64 oz of gatorade today in about a 2 hour span and I was going clear. That's off the chart, literally. Is that considered a zero or what?

Do it again and give it a taste. That will tell you if it is a zero.

The chart is for levels of DEhyrdation. a 1 or 2 means you are well hyrdated, but still slightly dehydrated. Clear 100% fully hydrated.

One chick at work commented that I pee more than anyone shes ever met.

Ya know though. Santiago, you may be able to answer this better, but don't your kidneys take a beating from all the liquid we take in? Doesn't their ability to filter all the stuff out have some negative impact on them? Just curious.

I don't count the number of times I pee a day.
Everybody else does that.
'Dude, you're going to the bathroom again?'
I am usually a 1 or a 2 :D
Nothing to it, but to do it
After a hard early morning workout - getting up from the desk often to pee and then refill the water mug feels pretty good. Kinda stretching things out a bit. And gotta stay hydrated for the workout after work.

I think this is so funny - how many times do you pee?! Anyway, I live inthe bathroom. I never go anywhere without a water bottle, and for us chicks who have had kids and being over 40 - well let's just say that sneezing can be a whole new experience......

A pee thread..allright!
Living in Phoenix most everyone drinks tons of water.
The first thing I tell visitors or Phx-transplants is "drink lots of water" especially in the summer.
Now what about after you take a multi-vitamin?
I take these vitamins from GNC and about 1-2 hours later it's as yellow as this smiley face. :)
Why is that anyway? Kinda like Lucky Charms turning your kids poo greenish?

Bad thing about peeing a lot is when you get on a long conference call or meeting and no potty breaks. ARG!

Actually - just tried some young barley grass - It taste awful enough, so hope that means it is full of goodness.

Actually I found this out after I drank some purple kool-aid mixed with some sort of alcohol in college.
Then I had an opportunity to give my kids some purple kool-aid.(Without the booze)
When they had green poop they were thrilled to find out it was from the kool-aid. They loved sharing that fact with everybody.
:D
BTW- I make sure they drink enough water and have explained to them about pee color.
They think it is fun examining it every time they go.

I am about to up my pee count by one more.
I only woke up once last night to go, and that is because my daughter had to get up. I figured I'd go while I am up.
I don't drink alot after 7-8 pm so I don't have to wake up usually.

I usually have to go twice a night - I was wondering if that was unusual - after seeing this thread - apparantly not. I drink a fair amount of water at night and even during the night - keep a water bottle by the bedside and hit it each time I get up to go.

13 for me too. Only once during a sleep period.
I don't drink so much after 6 pm until bed time around 10-10:30 pm
I try and go just before I go to sleep. Last night I didn't get up in the middle of my sleep at all. I did have to go when I got up.

We are a strange breed us triathletes. Some more than others :D I thought I would post this for fun:
A urine color rating of 1, 2 or 3 is considered to be well-hydrated
Urine Color Measurement
description / procedure: The first part of the urine stream is discarded, the a small sample of urine is collected into a clear jar. Measurement may be done immediately, or the specimen can be stored for later analysis. The sample is usually collected first thing in the morning. It may aslo be of interest to collect samples prior to or post exercise, though there may be a time delay for the effect of dehydration to show in the urine colour.
equipment required: Clip boards, Recording sheets, Pens, Urine specimen containers, ice bucket for storage, Ice, Color rating chart, Gloves
interpretation: The sample should be held up in front of a white background, in good light, and the color compared to the chart to the left. The lower the number, the better the result. A urine color rating of 1, 2 or 3 is considered to be well-hydrated (Armstrong, 2000). Based on these results, changes in fluid intake can be made.
precautions:
certain medicines and vitamins may cause the colour of the urine to change. If any of these have been taken, this test is unreliable.
the colours your see on the screen, or when you print the image out, may appear different to the original chart. Therefore this chart should only be used as a guide. If more accurate comparison is required, please go to an original source.
