I am only a couple days out (RNY on Wednesday) But I am really thirsty but having trouble getting enough to drink.... Any tips?

I am tolerating well but I think when I drink too much or too fast my belly makes Loud noises

Provided you're not in pain keep drinking maybe just slow down.

As far as I know noise doesn't equate to pain.

maybe try warm beverages? I am 1 month away from surgery so I am not a pro at this.

Always keep water/flavoured water with you where ever you go. The gurgles in your tummy are normal, it just means that there is air in there. It's entertaining when you are alone. Try not to chuck, it traps air and can be uncomfortable. Just keep sipping. If it's in site, you'll remember to do it.
