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!

Anon Hate

I don’t get these anons who try to send me insults saying that I spend all day online. I queue posts every morning before I go to work. If I’m awake enough, I reblog a thing or two when I get home. Today is Yom Kippur, so I just decided to pop on during the break between services. And low and behold, anon hate. On the most sacred of Jewish holidays.

So you know what, anon? In the spirit of today, I forgive you. I forgive your need to attack others just to feel good about yourself.

And I sincerely hope you can find peace soon.
