Home from surgery...
I just had the bypass on Wednesday. At this point, my head, left ear throat and back hurt more than my stomach does. Go figure. lol Other than that, I feel ok. No nausia as of yet.. no drainage or any of the other stuff they say to look out for. Be nice if this pain med would take care of the head and back pain. I'm supposed to be up to 4oz every hour now...but can't put in any more than 2tbls every 1 1/2 hours. Working on building it up though. Can't seem to walk without holding my stomach.
Starting weight 309

Sounds like you are doing "normal".

Thanks. Doing my best. :) This morning though seems to have brought gas with it though. Burping a lot. Is that good or bad?
