So i had my RNY surgery last Friday, and was only down for the count for about 2 days (meaning didn't feel well and only did the required amount of moving/walking around) but since then, i've been on the GO! It's hard for me to stay put and I'm not sure if I should be staying in the office, but it drives me crazy.  My biggest frustration post op is how thirsty i always am, and due to my stomach still being in the healing stage, I can't take large gulps of water like my mind wants to!!! I went out dancing with friends last night, and was so thirsty and it took me forever to finish one cup of water.......matter of fact i never even finished it.  So since i started the pre-op liquid diet, i've lost 20lbs, and since surgery last friday I have lost an additional 11 lbs.  So within the last 3 weeks 31 lbs down and I'm really happy about that.  But i wan****ER WATER WATER!!

I also feel very thirsty.  I have found sugar free popsicles help alot for me.  I am 2 weeks out.  Wish I had your energy though.
