When will I be able to drink more than an ounce?

Pre-op I was a big drinker...at least 2/3 of a gallon of water a day. Now Im incredibly thirsty and until the pouch heals Im limited to 1-2 oz of water at a time. And none of the fail-safes help, I've tried popsickles, icechips, snowcones etc..not even fruit juices (unsweetened of course) help. I just want to guzzle a huge, cold bottle of water. When will I be able to do this again?
