How many ounces of water should a new post-op try to take in?

I am having surgery November 8 in Birmingham. I am fearful about getting dehydrated. I drink so much now. I am always thirsty, probably because of my diabetes. Will I still be this thirsty after surgery and how will I gt rid of it? I know normal should people drink 8 ounces a day, or many do WLS patients drink a day to stay hydrated?
