Welcome to the forum--and regarding your dehydration levels post-op, I think some people struggle and some people don't. It's true that it will be a long time before you can gulp water in large amounts, but if you're willing to put in some effort, and you can keep the need to do so at the top of your mind, you can get in the habit of drinking liquid continually to stay hydrated.

I do better some days and worse some days, but have found that, with a bottle of Propel that I continue to dilute with water as the level drops, I can get through a couple hour workout with no issues.
