Story

Hi guys

Guess what? I'm giving up ice cream for three months! Yes, you heard right - throughout June, July, and August I will eat no icecream. Or other sugary stuff (cake, biscuits...), but ice cream is my real downfall in the summer.

Why? I desperately need to improve my health, and giving up sugar (which I'm seriously addicted to) is the key.

In order to motivate myself I've decided to do it as a sponsored challenge, which will also help AbilityNet. They are a Reading-based organisation that help disabled adults and children use computers and the internet. We all know how impossible it is to live without the internet these days.

So if you want to help motivate me, and support this charity at the same time, please visit my webpage on JustGiving and sponsor me.

I'll keep you updated with my progress - the temptations, the stoicism, the bravery, the mood swings!

Your soon-to-be-thinner-and-healthier friend,
Big Jo Turner xx
