I'm so thirsty! My bloodsugar is over 250 ranging up into the 300's so they keep administering insulin. I've made. 3 laps around my floor. I'm sleeping in about 60 min jaunts.

no one said this was easy and no one was right!

Good luck, I'm starting the process now. Can't wait until I can get approval and be on my journey.

Congrats on your new journey! I was very thirsty after my surgery also. It took about a week for me to lose that dry feeling in my mouth, but I had no problem getting my water intake. My blood sugar was not as high as yours and I didn't need any insulin but 1 week after surgery I was taken off my diabetic medication as my sugar started running normal. I hope this happens for you also, but eventually it will come down. Just hang in there!

I was too! I just got back from my swallow study and they brought in my tray of liquids. I really just want to down them all, I'm so thirsty.

I was real thirsty for the first few days.  Now I have a hard time remembering to drink enough fluids.  Hang in there & congrats on your surgery.

Congrats!  I was Sleeved 15 July14, and wasvery thirsty as well.  I found sucking on ice chips helped alot.  Prior to surgery I was taking oral meds for my diabetes, my last A1C was 6.5.  After the surgery my blood sugar was a bit high so they administered insilin and sent me home with insilin.   I am now 10 days post op and have not had to take an insilin shot once.  My blood sugar has not been higher than 130.  In the hospital I once had a blood sugar over 200.  Your body is still adjusting, Iit does get better.
