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!

Attention:

I’m making a video for McKenzie tonight. For those who don’t know, McKenzie is in the hospital straddling life and death after attempting to take her life in a rather gory fashion. If you have something you’d like me to say to her in the video, please send it to my inbox, and I’ll read on camera on your behalf. (Not too insanely long, please. Tumblr has a video time limit.) I will list all of your names at the bottom, too, to show all of the people who care. Even if you just want to send her love, just tell me that, and I’ll mention it.

I scrolled through her archives… the hate she received is simply atrocious. If you have the courage to read some of them, these are just the most recent.

You think your anonymous hate is just harmless fun? THIS GIRL IS ON DEATH’S DOORSTEP BECAUSE OF YOU. And we’re not letting her go without a fight. If you send anonymous hate, you are the scum of the earth. No one should be spoken to like this. No one.
