Well, it’s official! You’re on the losing side. The trumpets are blaring, the cymbals are crashing and the drums are drumming – all for YOU! I hope that all went well for you! You’ve been out of surgery now for a little over a month – YIPPIE!!! Your journey will have moments to “pause” – I’d like to impart some words of wisdom for when it does occur - remember these wise words whispered by Confucius – “It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.” Be patient. You didn’t put it on over night, it won’t come off over night (DARN IT!)…Don’t forget to update your profile at least monthly and take lots of pictures…the transformations will make your jaw drop!!!

Hello to you all, I am home now and it is a slow recovery. I came home Thursday, May 27th, after 5pm. I had no complications to speak of. Dr. Dort said that I am doing great and I have the right mind-set to be very successful with this. I am very sore and tender but geez that is to be expected. Lots of gas unfortunately. But working on that. Doing lots of short, beneficial walking. Drinking all that I can get in too. So far so good. I just hope this does get better! It seems so far out there. I have to say THANK YOU to all who have posted here. I just dont know what I would do without all you wonderful, loving, kind and sweet friends. My love to you all! And Thank you again for all the support! You all are my family now! Blessings to you all! Tammy Buck
