Yes, I get both a piss spike and a massive hunger spike. I'm doing an ironman on my birthday in a few weeks and fully intend to be pissing like a horse and gorging the next day.
I think the pissing thing is something about taking on lots of hydration (obvs) but then the body shutting down in trauma over the endurance stuff you're making it do. I read somewhere this is why pro cyclists don't need to take a sh1t during a race.
