My name is Risa. I'm 24 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!

not really a question, but i just wanted to say that i'm really happy you got the surgery. i hate whenever people give you abuse about 'cheating' weight loss, that you didn't work hard or whatever and instead just got surgery that did all the work for you. people like that can go fuck themselves, because that surgery saved your life. you're so much healthier now and who cares if it took surgery for you to get healthy? what matters is that you are now. keep on working hard, risa. i believe in you
