The pain meds might cause some water retention, but do not let that discourage you! You might increase just a tad the water you're drinking (not a whole lot, if you are already doing well with this) now and for the few day after you're off meds.
I just took a course of steroids -- added about 6 pounds in a week. Three days after I was done, weight is back in my normal (good) zone.
The key thing to remember, Jason, is that your body's primary interest right now is HEALING. Don't let a bogus, temporary gain (should it happen) derail you!
And "Santa Baby," especially the recording by Blossom Dearie, is my favorite secular Christmas tune.

I say don't even think about it while you are in recovery. Obviously you can't exercise and your limited to eating what's around. I think as long as you eat in moderation and as healthy as you can under the circumstances, no harm is done as long as you get back on track once you are better. You have to roll with the punches and surgery is definitely one of those times where you don't need to beat yourself up over staying on a program. Just my opinion. Knowing you, I'm sure you have a very well balanced view of the situation though.
