Hello all!

Week Five Target: 3lb If you wish to sponsor me, let me know and I'll add you to the weekly email update :)

Total lost so far (14/09/2009) 1stone 9lb!

Thanks for taking a look at my page, I do hope you'll sponsor me to raise money for Crimestoppers (http://www.crimestoppers-uk.org/) in my much needed task of shedding this weight! Most of you will know that I was once a lovely little size and since losing weight before (and then putting it all back on again) I've struggled a tad.

I'm sure you have all heard of Crimestoppers but most are unaware that it is in fact an independent charity and NOT part of the police. They also have nothing to do with Crimewatch!

Crimestoppers run many campaigns and an anonymous line for those wishing to pass on information about a crime but not be identified and this has resulted in thousands of criminals being taken off the streets. They also run many youth projects including ShadowCS, a website which allows young people to get involved in discussions about crime and the everyday things that affect them and gives them the option of seeking advice if they don't know what to do.

We all watch/read the news and feel sickened by some of the crimes that go on out there, Crimestoppers works to put those responsible behind bars where they belong - all this incredible work is not possible without funding, this is where you lovely cherubs can play your part in making our communities safer.

I am going to be posting a lovely picture of my bathroom scales (and feet) every Monday showing my weight, I will then set myself an amount in lbs to lose each week. If I hit my target, I ask you kind-hearted, beautiful, Chanty-fearing people (what?) to donate £1, or more if you like. I will be doing this for 6 months, any questions, please ask.
