Just wanted to say a quick thanks to everyone here.  You guys have been wonderful during the last couple of weeks of Hell for me.  All the calls, messages, texts, visits....wow!!!!  I'm honored to have such a wonderful family here.  Things are getting better....slowly.  This surgery/recovery has kicked my butt.....but I don't regret my decision at all and am looking forward to getting healed and getting back to myself.  I've been taking it easy and trying to rest as much as possible.   Unfortunately what happened to me IS a possible complication of any surgery, and I was that lucky one who got it.  It definitely could have been worse though....and I'm thankful that it wasn't.  I was out yesterday and tried on a brand new pair of Lucky Jeans....OMG!!!!!!  Cute low rise......and boy were they cute.  Still a little too swollen to get them buttoned, but I can't wait to do some serious shopping.  I'm going to try to post a before and after soon for those who have been asking.  :-) Thank you again everyone....you're the best!

Hey Kristin glad to hear that you are slowly getting back to yourself.

Just a word to the warning about buying too many things post op from tt......those jeans you cannot button now....well in no time they will be tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo big for you. Trust me....been there done that one. I have my LuckyJeans from when I was about 1 year post op from the LBL....I am now 2 sizes smaller and it took me a year to fit the first ones. I am telling you.....you will not believe in months from now how small you are going to be...so hold up on spending too much!!

Congrats and keep getting better!
