Surgery Scar + Crazy Pork Rind question

[Guest guest]

I remember someone talking somewhere along the way that they had

reconstructive surgery on their scar to improve the looks of it. I

had to have an open RNY because of a hernia that was repaired at the

same time as my RNY. I keloid (develop excess scar tissue at wound

sites) quite badly and my scar is up to 1 " wide at some points and

13 " long. It is quite ugly and I would like to have it fixed at some

point when I get a little further down on the scale. Has anyone had

this done? If so, how did it go. I will eventually visit the

plastic surgery group but I don't know any of them and know most of

you all so that is why I wanted to ask you first.

Also, I crave potato chips sometime and know that pork rinds are

supposed to contain protein vs. being all carbohydrates. I have a

small bag every once in a while and feel guilty for doing it. Do

they really contain any worthwhile protein or should I just have a

bag of chips??
