OK so most people will know me but for those that dont here goes......my name is Alex and I am 32, I recently embarked on a weight loss journey like no other...so far to date I have lost 13.5lbs and counting, a big achievement in itself...but I have decided to go one step further and make a commitment to my weight loss and raise money for three worthwhile causes close to my heart by training for a 400km bicycle ride around Cuba in 2013......I lost my mum to breast cancer in April 2010 and if I have learned anything it is that life is too short for regrets and living each day to your potential is a must. I am lucky enough to have a supportive (or mad!) godmother who is also going to undertake this challenge with me to raise money for Breast, Ovarian and Cervical cancer three charities which unfortunately might be invaluable to some of us, our friends or families at some point in our lives. So please support me and pass this on to as many people as possible and help me to raise over £2900 for three such worthy causes........every penny really does count!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you. xx
