Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I like many others have always had a somewhat rocky relationship with my weight. so after my fourth child ( four years ago now) i joined Slimming World. i was eager, full of enthusiasm and determination! After a year, i had lost about 3 stone, and after two and a half id reached the 5 stone marker. for the past year and half I've, put on, lost, put on , lost and put on. I'm currently, about 10lbs away from my 5stone. Im still going to class, i still weigh in and i have to be honest, without going, i know i would have put all my weight back on. My eating habits have changed, i do make better choices and am aware of what it better for me. I have however lost some of the drive. I accepted the challenge to rekindle my desire to lose weight, and while reading about the charity, i realised that by me doing something that i want/need to do , i can also help others. Its a win win!

I am aiming to lose 16 lbs during my 12 weeks and with the support of family and friends, know that i will achieve it!
