I'm the same!! Its constant and I cant imagine how anyone would not b able to drink enough on this diet. I also eat two rashers of bacon but not everyday...and on the days I don't, the thirst is still there.
I'm hoping its the bodies way of demanding water to get rid of ketones. I am at the 2nd to highest dark colour as well so I agree that its definately the ketosis. I go down a bit in colour after I've had my 5carb veg with my dinner and the thirst tends to subside then.
Wish Dr Atkins was still here to advise
