Efishman, mine was not he 10th as well! What is your current diet like? I losr so much weight to begin with because i was only allpwee gatorade for the 1dt week aftwr surgery and i think that made a big difference for me. What ive moticed is all surgeons are different and have such different instructions for before and after surgery! Also, did you request to add to the fb page? -

4millyb, I'm happy to hear you are already pack at work! I've been in so much pain (not nearly as much from.hospital though) that I have to go back in this week to see melt surgeon. I also had problems with my pain meds and 3 different nausea medications. They actually made me do another upper GI thinking I had a leak because I was throwing up bad stuff as well. I'm happy you're off of clear liquids! I'm so jealous. I'm on them until thursday. But I also am hungry cranky person!!!! Especially when I think about food, see food, smell food, it all sucks. Lol come.march 10th I can hopefully be eating normal again but that is so far away! I also was sleeved on the 10th. Good to hear from you. Have you joined the fb group yet? -
