Thesurgery lasted eight hours and was physically taxing, but the outcome made it all worthwhile. Tammy now feels healthier and more confident in her appearance. Her openness on social media, where she shares vulnerable moments and progress, has inspired thousands of fans and built a strong, supportive connection with her audience.
