In Which Greta Rants About…Potty Breaks

7

I hate drinking water. I know that I’m supposed to. I also know that I seem to lose weight faster when I do. It’s healthier. I get the whole “flushing out the system” deal.

I just hate it. It’s a chore. All the drinking and refilling and drinking and refilling.

Also, frankly…it’s friggin’ annoying to have to get up and pee every 20 minutes. Especially at work. It’s a public bathroom. Not just office co-worker public, more like everybody in the city of Ann Arbor public. Yep, everybody in the city of Ann Arbor knows how often I have to get up and go pee. I’m sure they are laughing at me. I’m sure it’s all they can think about.

Also, as a former infertility patient, I have serious emotional scarring from going to the bathroom. It’s like a box of chocolates, Forest, you never know what you’re gonna get! I won’t go in to any more graphic detail (this is a fat/weight loss blog, not an infertility blog…I recommend a little pregnant if you’re looking for something in that vein).

Dammit! Usually about 24 to 36 oz. in things get really ridiculous. I’ll go once and pretty much by the time I’ve walked back to my desk I’ve already got to go again. Maybe I should invent some sort of Lard Lookers disposable catheter.

Ugh. Too much? I do that sometimes ;)

  2. I think my boss tracks how often I go. Might be the reason I got no bonus this year!

  3. I drink about 10 or more glasses a day, more if I play tennis. I got into the habit years ago. After a while, the peeing tapers off. It is great for your skin. I know what you mean about the emotional scarring, though. I was an infertility patient for 7 years!

    Oh, Greta, I hear you, sister! I call drinking water “my only good habit.” But man, it is an annoying one! Sometimes I make myself hold, just so I don’t go to the bathroom twice in one hour. I mean, really! Twice in one hour? Ridiculous.

    Try being a teacher and having lunch LAST, no breaks…and off period is the last class? How do you excuse yourself to walk what seems to be “across campus” to potty?? Oh, the faculty parking lot is naturally in the front campus…coming home before 6:00 and not drinking water after 6:00???? How do you do THAT without O.D.ing on H2O???? UGH!
