12 hours was just an example. I went over 48 a few weeks ago due to some odd circumstances and 12 is totally normal. 16 is not at all unusual.
It's interesting that you mentioned blood sugar, though, I was just coming back to this thread to ask whether it could be related to diabetes in any way. As far as I know, I don't have diabetes but I have some symptoms that one or two people have suggested could be diabetes related. One is a ferocious thirst. I don't eat a lot but I can put away enormous quantaties of iced tea and straight water. I still don't think I am carrying 90+ pounds of excess water, though.

P.S. - I think I'm pretty heavy by pretty much everyone's standards
I think my blood pressure is a little high, now, but it used to be awesome. My resting heart rate is in the high 50's-low 60's range.
