Another reason I want to give up meat is because I pee A LOT! I mean a lot lot. Every 1/2 hour or so. Its really taking a toll on my life. I do drink a lot of water and I drink coffee in the morning and an iced coffee in the afternoon (thinking of going to 1/2 decaf for this). However I sooooo totally enjoy my ice coffee, like one of life's special treats thats pretty low in calories.
I have read that meat can make you pee more. Caffeine can make you pee more and sugar can make you pee more. Well I eat FAR too much sugar and I enjoy my wine, which is like all sugar. I am going to cut back on sugar and stop eating meat ... I am hoping this will help with the frequent urination. I don't know about the coffee though. I can have sometimes up to 3, 10oz cups in the morning! Then get a large ice coffee in the afternoon. I don't even need the caffeine ... I just LOVE coffee!
