Story

<p>I topped the scales in June last year at over 27 stone (380 Pounds 170 Kg) &hellip; But not anymore!<br> <br> On attending a good friends funeral I started wondering if I would be next..?<br> <br> I have a Wonderful Wife and 3 amazing children. It didn&rsquo;t take me long to acknowledge I wasn&rsquo;t only showing a lack of respect to myself&hellip; most importantly; I was being disrespectful to them. The greatest gift I can give them is Daddy and hubby for as long as I&rsquo;m needed.<br> <br> So, something had to change.. ME. <br> <br> Since 23rd June 2011 I&rsquo;ve lost over 8 stone and I am now on 19 stone. Paula Stock, a friend, asked for people who were willing to Skydive to raise funds for her local charity. Without thinking I said &ldquo;I will&rdquo;. <br> <br> The criteria is I have to be under 16 stone by 7th July 2012 which is why I&rsquo;m calling it my 11+ Stone loss celebration. <br> <br> I get to celebrate claiming my life back while helping this very worthwhile cause. As they say a win win all round. So please help me to help children and their families have the support they need at a time they need to concentrate on each other&hellip; (More important than we will (hopefully) ever imagine.)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
