Help HORRIBLE Diarrhea will it ever end?????

I am 8 days post op from open rny. I am on an all liquid diet until next week. I am having terrible cramps and diarrhea. My surgeon says this is normal and will subside???? I am taking the maximum daily amount of Imodium which slows it down a little but doesn't stop it. I literally spend day and night in the bathroom. Has anyone had this happen to them????? Does it get better???? Is it because of all the liquids??? I still have my gallbladder which looked perfect so it isn't that. Any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
