Hi there, If you've just started drinking a good amount of water I would think it is probably toxins that wash from your system when you cleanse yourself with water. I've drank large amounts of water for a long times but I do remember when I started my urine looked sort of strange as well. Just my two cents.

It is probably worth a quick trip to the Dr. for a urine test.

Ever since I had my rny last March I have had an oily film in the stool after I go to the bathroom. I'd just like to think it's the fat leaving my body.

Hi, I thought everyone had greasy pee!! For me anyway, I have had greasy pee ever since surgery and every other time I've ever went on a diet. I notice that when I'm at plateaus, I don't have the greasy pee, but as soon as I see the film of grease on top, I know that weight loss will be happenning within the next couple of days!! I love greasy pee!!!!

What it is is fatty acids that your body can't use from burning the triglycerides in your body. Greasy pee means your running on fat (which is a good thing!). Usually doctors only worry about excess glucose in the urine, because it's a sign of diabetes.

I WAS JUST ABOUT TO ASK THAT SAME QUESTION! I NOTICE A GREASY FILM WHEN I UH...POOP...WHICH I EXPECT. BUT I'VE ALSO NOTICE AN OILY LOOKING FILM SOMETIMES WHEN I PEE AND I WONDERED IF WE CAN EXCRETE FAT THRU OUR URINE...BUT I GUESS THAT'S A GOOD THING, I KNOW I LOSE WEIGHT (I.E. FAT) EVERY TIME I CRAP BUT I GUESS NOW I'M LOSING SOME WHEN I PEE TOO!!
