Girl Growing Small
My name is Risa. I'm 23 years old and live in Boca Raton, Florida. I have battled with my weight since I was about 6 years old, and for the last couple years, I was finally winning the fight. But I slipped, gaining back 36lbs from my lowest weight in ages. Now I'm buckling down again to shed the weight so I can look on the outside the way I feel on the inside. But the road isn't always straight and smooth. For more information on my life-long weight loss journey, please view my first post here. This blog exists for me, to keep me on track and motivated. If you don't like personal posts or personal opinions, you took the wrong fork at Albuquerque!

Damn! I was just thinking a couple of days ago that I should ask you how you'd celebrate getting under 200 pounds again (huge congrats on that, by the way). But then I wasn't sure if you'd already passed it, and I didn't want to seem stupid, so I didn't. Soooo, how are you going to celebrate it? I can just imagine you and Mitch (when you're back in Florida, obviously) squealing while holding hands and jumping up and down. :)

Well, fortunately for me, this happened to fall on my treat day. I make Saturdays my treat days because I know I’m going to be out late teching for Rocky Horror, and that can really limit food options. So today I treated myself with my monthly free piece of Godiva chocolate. I don’t want to relax too much, though, or it’ll be like last time where I broke 200 then went right back up. So I’m still sticking with my healthy foods and lean choices, and I’m making sure to stay hydrated. I’ll truly celebrate once I get back into the 180s. Then I’ll know I’m making real progress. :)
