How are all the August 6th sleepers out there? I am moving slow but I am ok

I am doing well. It's going much better than I thought. Still resting a lot and taking pain meds, but I am able to eat yogurt, Soup and Protein shakes with no problem . My biggest complaint is my throat still really hurts and is swollen from

The intubation. Glad you are doing okay . Have you weighed yourself ? I am weighting until Monday because I know I am still carrying a lot of Fluid and don't want to be disappointed.
