25 Weeks Post-OP - Surgery Recovery.. again

My surgery went well, I'm in recovery mode again, which feels pretty similar to VSG recovery except I took time off work this time. After VSG, I went to work the day after the hospital (I was in the hospital for 4 days), this time, I was in the hospital for like 6 hours total. I have three new incisions because they reused one of the previous incisions. The glue is taking a while to come off, and I have some gnarly bruises from where they tried to put the IV. This week (I believe) I am down 67.2 pounds, which is a 1.6 pound loss for the week. I wish it was more. I found myself craving chips so I caved and got a bag of original, lo-fat, baked lays. They're pretty delicious. Christmas is coming up and one of the parties we're going to is asking me to bake my brownies (they all LOVE them, but they're just funfetti)... this is going to be really tough. It was going to be hard because of the VSG restrictions, but being 6 months out at Christmas wont be too too bad, but now after gallbladder removal, I need to be careful with fat.
