I litterally pee all the time. Does anyone else have this problem?

I do, too, but that is because I am constantly drinking.  I get in at least a gallon of fluid a day.  I stop drinking at least an hour before bedtime or I would be up all night going to the bathroom.

Yup, lots and lots of peeing. Lots of water in, lots of water out. Have to keep the kidneys flushed because of the high protein diet.

Peeing all the time is a GREAT sign! As long as it's not painful or have a funny odor/color. It should be clear and almost odorless.

Other reasons for peeing a lot are blood sugar problems, pregnancy or an incompetent bladder. As long as those are ruled out you're good to go!

If you are peeing frequently it usually means you are getting in enough fluids! Congratulations!!

Are you saying the bladder doesn't hold much? Is this a recent change? I agree with the above posters that drinking a lot of water should make you pee a lot.
If you feel like you are only able to hold a little, maybe you have a urinary tract infection--or maybe you are preggers.
