Everyday I buy a large Water EXTRA ICE from Sonic.

Then I drink 1 or 2 Lipton Citrus green Tea Lemonade. Chilled very delicious.

I know EXACTLY what you're going through. I find that as soon as I wake up and have my meal, I begin to drink. For me, a mini glass of ice cold Water helps. My goal is to drink it before it gets warm. Also ice chips will help out tons!!!!!!!!!! What kind of water are you drinking? Certain waters out there don't quench my thirst, like Fiji, Aquafina, Dasani. I love the PUR water purifying system, along with Nestle Life water. They contain certain minerals that will quench your thirst. Also, I am having sugar free popsicles in between my sips. If I leave my home, I take a bottle with ICE water and as soon as it gets warm, I buy more ice. Good luck and keep your chin up.

I get mine from the local snow cone vendor. Just ask what flavors they have in sugar free.

You may need electrolytes, too. Try some Diet Gatorade (G2) or the Crystal Light sport mix. Those really helped me.

Mio in ice water! My favorite is the mango/peach flavor.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
