Hi Virginia, my name is Connie and I had the surgery about six months ago. I saw your before and after picture and I have to tell you that you look really great. Am worry about the lose skin and I know that my insurance does not cover plastic surgery. Was the legs that bad ?     — cjackson68

Hey Virginia. I'm 17. I'm having surgery next June. I want to know what your exercise regimine was when you first started to really exercise and what you did to keep it up. Does the desire to excercise kick in once you loose the weight because right now at 5' 10'' and 328 (14 lbs lighter than a yr ago) I'd rather have a tooth pulled than excercise. What exactly did you do and how often did you excercise. One Love, Jasmine Harris     — Bonitajboo

Virgina-I had to pick myself up off the floor (which isn't easy) after I read your post yesterday. You deserve to be so proud of yourself. I need to lose about 175-200 pounds, reading your profile has really given me peace, knowledge and the courage to know that I can do this. Congratulations and many blessings for you to come. Godspeed. Maureen in TX     — babybear67

Virginia Rock, How appropriate a name is that, cause you ROCK! Wow!!! You should be the poster-lady for this surgery! You look FABULOUS, and you did it all the right way!! I too had cut the bread type carbs and did well, but only for the first 6 months, so I'd better get back on track. I also just started working out more, but didn't until recently (I had only walked). Now I like the eliptical machine, etc. at the spa. I hope I can still be as successful as you. I do know what you mean about the deflated balloon skin. I am hoping too to get that removed some day. I am going to spend the next year working out at the spa, and then see where things are at (and hopefully save some money for the surgeries). Hey, how'd you get insurance to approve it. I know they will do the TT if you have a hernia (which I don't), but not the boob/butt/thigh lifts I need. Any info you have is appreciated. Thanks for your post, as I hadn't seen your profile before, and it's very inspiring! Des     — Desiree R.

Virginia, first of all, you look fantabulous. Congrats on your superb weightloss. As for the sugar thing, does that mean absolutely NO sugar, not even things that have sugar already in them like fruit and some veggies, or does that mean added sugars and candy? Again, you look great. Woohoo on the salsa lessons too. Are they fun? Hugs to you.     — Cinna G.
