From the 1st February I am doing a sponsored slim in aid of a great local charity.

My aim is to lose 2 stone by the 30th June 2009 by eating far more healthily and through strict portion control! I'm also going to use my trampoline and exercise bike more than ever before!

As a dinner lady and being surrounded by food every day this is going to be no mean feat but I'm determined. My friend Pauline and daughters Rhodora and Shadora are also aiming to lose weight too so we can support each other.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Birmingham Focus on Blindness 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 sponsor me now and help a very worthwhile cause!
