Sensitive question.....

Ok, so I've been on the diet for 8 days now and the last 2 days my urine is VERY strong smelling, is that normal? I drink on average 6 glass of water a day (I know it should be more but I'm trying). So why now is it so strong? Am I finally loosing the water weight my TOM was saving?

Actually I had a little bit in my omelet this morning, but not that much.
However, if your urine is reddish-brown in color I would do the following: check your diet to see if you are eating alot of blackberries or beets (anything with tons of dark pigment)... stop eating them for a few days and see if it turns back to normal. If this is not the case, then contact your doctor about a urine hematocrit analysis (blood in the urine) which can be caused by a number of problems. Also, if the urine is cloudy or smells like acetone (nail polish remover) or sugar then I would also contact your doctor.
Most likely your urine is just yellow which is just a sign of a change in diet and is not unhealthy at all... so keep at it and good luck! (let me know if you have more questions about this)
