Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have decided to do a sponsored slim for a couple of reasons:

The main one being that this is a novel way of raising money for a very worthwile charity. Macmillan helped my Father In Law when he was suffering from lung cancer back in the 1990s. Now my own Father is suffering from prostate cancer, and Macmillan is there for him as he is undergoing treatment for this scary condition. The Macmillan Nurses he has spoken to are wonderful and extremely helpful, and whenever I have felt the need to talk to someone myself they are patient, understanding and knowledgeable. When my father has had to go to hospital the Macmillan nurses have visited him and chatted to him, and even helped him with his medication when our own local doctors have messed up. 

The second reason for doing this is that I woke up one morning recently, looked in the mirror, weighed myself and realised that I am literally twice the woman I was! I should weigh around 10 stone, and currently I tip the old scales at 19st exactly!! I would never let a charity like this down, so this is an ideal way of shedding the pounds, and getting fit!

My aim is to lose 7 stone within a year. I know I can do it, and with your kind support, I will achieve this goal AND help a very worthwile charity in the process!
