Thank you for taking the time to visit my fundraising page!
For those that know me, you know that I really LOVE my food...but unfortunately this love has lead to me becoming somewhat of a fatty, lol! So something had to be done about it, not only for my own health but because I can't really afford to keep buying new clothes all the time!
Ahem....but on a more serious note...I decided to take matters into my own hands and turn my pledge for weight loss into something even more positive than reaching a healthy BMI range....that's right...giving money to charity! And what could be a more worthy cause than Diabetes UK!
Again for those who know me and my family, may know that my Brother was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes a few years back which shocked us as much as it did him! So this really is a cause that is close to my heart.
So in aid of Diabetes UK between 1st March 2010 and 29th February 2011, I pledge to lose 4 stone (and possibly more!). This will put me into the healthy bmi range rather than the very scarily titled morbidly obese section!!!!
You will be able to see how I am getting along through my aptly named blog, which I can't promise will make interesting reading but it will chart my progress...; http://alsaysbyebyetothebelly.blogspot.com/
If you would rather not donate online, give money upfront or would rather pay your sponsorship money at the end of the sponsor year then just email me at alison.braganza@yahoo.co.uk and let me know and you can add yourself to my hard copy sponsor forms....
Thanks for ready this far and all thats left is for me to let you know the formal stuff...so here goes;
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Diabetes UK gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please give generously and sponsor me now!
Love Alison x
