Massive unfollowing spree...
I periodically sort through people I follow and remove those who either no longer interest me or have been inactive for an extended period of time. It’s really saddening to see how many people in the fitblr community have become inactive.
Hang in there. Never give up.

Anonymous asked: Sorry, the question I was more asking was is drinking a liter of water drinking too much water? Thank you though.
Anonymous asked: That's not a needle. Think more of a scorpion with the leg behind you and both legs straight. The body and arms can pretty much be wherever (hands on the floor, body against the bottom leg or bent backwards towards the upper leg) just as long as you have a straight split behind you.

NSVotD - May 20, 2013
I tracked everything I ate! It makes such a difference.
(I’m coming back from a rough period, so I’m sorry if I sound newb-ish for a while. I’m treating myself like a newbie until I get used to a routine again.)
I quit my job today.
I know I’m gonna get some messages about this. Yes, I’m still in an icky financial situation. But there were so many issues with where I was working that I can’t even begin to detail them.
My two primary reasons for leaving:
The stress and chemicals in the place were making me pretty sick.
I can now dedicate 100% of my time to building my cupcake business.
Oh, btw,...

New on GirlGrowingSmall: Non-Scale Victory of the Day! I encourage you to reblog/reply with your own. I attribute this one all to Mitch. He’s been keeping me going. And he keeps being like, “I need to get back on Tumblr”, and putting it off. -_- DO IT ALREADY, MITCH!
Anyway, today’s NSVotD:
I decided to reach for frozen veggies instead of chips or pie. And I feel...
Sorry I'm so behind in answering asks.
Been hectic here. Will explain when the time comes. Which hopefully will be Monday night. Hopefully.
Anonymous asked: Hi Risa. Just wanted to say your reply to the anon's question of how to love your body when you're trying to change it really inspired me. I often have a hard time loving my body, because I haven't gotten to my ideal weight, but from reading your reply, it made me realize I have to love my body, because its so precious. Thank you for being such an inspiration :)

You look so different, have you lost weight? :O
Pff, I wish. I gained. But not for long! I’m working it off. Earning my surgery. ^^
Anonymous asked: Hey Risa! I think you're probably aware of the comments made by the CEO of Abercrombie 7 Fitch. What's your opinion on this?

girlgrowingsmall:
In today’s video, I talk about what excess skin is like, and I show the excess skin on my body 3 years after gastric bypass RNY surgery. Excess skin like this usually only happens after rapid massive weight loss, so don’t panic that you’ll get this after dropping 20lbs.
This video is not meant to debate the merits of gastric bypass. It’s not meant to be a plea for cash or...
