I was ...Oh wow! I was just thinking that this week. I was at Bristol doing my Ground School and I had to pee like 7 times a day.<br /><br />I realised it's because I unconsciously increased my water intake dramatically. It's actually fantastic for being on top of your game but you have to make sure that you pee before any long periods of time of sitting down.<br /><br />I've also done the peepee dance like twelve times this week.Tarikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11912063535207212774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-62085869778977574012013-08-02T22:37:03.998+00:002013-08-02T22:37:03.998+00:00And unless you count chocolate, I've pretty mu...And unless you count chocolate, I've pretty much given up caffeine.Aviatrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13634111275860140084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-90724687952316880842013-08-02T22:36:27.229+00:002013-08-02T22:36:27.229+00:00Oh yeah, definitely magic gel.

I put a twist tie around the neck anyway and then pop it in an anonymous brown paper bag and dispose of the whole thing along with other cabin garbage in a FOD bin at the next point of landing.Aviatrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13634111275860140084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-84201462129695714782013-08-01T12:32:59.532+00:002013-08-01T12:32:59.532+00:00Definitely pee when you need to.

I'm not the only person who has experienced this inconsistency (need to pee not correlated with amount of liquid imbibed or length of time since last pee). I gave up trying to figure it out and decided to simply surrender to the body's wishes and do whatever it takes to make myself comfortable. I'm not sure if there's a male-female difference (you can probably tell by my name that I'm female).

Wine lasts longer. <br /><br />I can run the ice dispenser on the fridge, have to stop and run to the loo. It's like Pavlov's freaking dog response. <br /><br />They say to drink on airplanes to avoid dehydration, but the walk of shame to the heads is not much fun either.amulbunny's random thoughtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10621932038345682056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10000144.post-54435300384963164482013-07-31T15:02:09.041+00:002013-07-31T15:02:09.041+00:00Do your pee bags contain the magic diaper gel subs...Do your pee bags contain the magic diaper gel substance, or are they just ... bags?

I find that caffeine causes me to urinate much more urgently compared to drinking the same amount of non-caffeinated drinks. I believe substances that do this are called "diuretics" and other common culprits are apple juice and beer. The wikipedia page on this quickly goes over my head though!Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00156137358933497969noreply@blogger.com
