Final update

Hi all 


so it’s been a long hard journey . But I am really proud that I have managed to lose just under 7 stone in the year . It’s been tough not just for me but for everyone having to listen to me . I hope I’ve done my mum proud but also that I have managed to raise m eh for an extremely worthwhile cause . Nobody will have to look at my flabby legs / other parts / toes any more lol . Thank you for all the support , I couldn’t do it without it . This is only the beginning . The plan is to do the same again next year and lose another 7 . Thank you again

11th March 2022 update

Probably had my best week for a while with plenty of exercise and a total weight loss of just over 5 pounds . Looks unlikely I will get the 12 stone off I originally aimed for but will get as close to it as possible . Thanks for support as always and if anyone wants to donate then great . I will be hassling people around June July time . So you’ve been warned !!

Latest shows the total weight loss at 5 stone and 6 pounds . Over halfway to the target . The guts of 5 months to go so will be chasing people for more donations around end of July / start of august .

Thanks for all your support

Week 6 update .

First goal hit to have the first number start with a 2 . Think I’ve probably lost a bit more than this but the heat has made everything so swollen . But this is just the start . It needs to continue . Birthday and a week off this week so if I can maintain this weight and maybe lose 2 or 3 pounds this week I will be extremely happy . But I’ll not be going too mad !!

1626414347_3a498950-c78e-4c3e-84e0-7391826a72ec.jpegStrange feeling this week . Lost roughly 6 pounds again. Absolutely gutted I just missed my goal of the first number starting with a 2 . Started my weight loss journey 6 as a bit weeks ago and have lost 2 stone and 7 pounds so far . So I am over the moon about that . The competitor in me however is gutted to miss out by half a pound . But I will get there next week . Thanks as always for all the support .

Week 1 update . Started off at 32 stone 7 pounds at my peak last Friday. Nearly 12 pounds off week 1 . Really happy with my start but treating it as just that. Hard work will continue. Just a quick note to say thank you to everyone who has donated so far

As most people who know me will know, I have always struggled with my weight but lockdown ( and a lack of effort from myself ) have caused this to increase significantly. As of today I weigh 32 stone and 7 pounds. The reason I am choosing to do this for charity is two fold. Firstly I need to lose the weight for obvious reasons as I am only 28 and need to do something soon. Secondly, my mother tragically passed away in February of this year and I promised her that I would lose weight as she always worried about it. I believe that raising money for a good cause is one of the best ways to motivate myself to do this. We all know someone who has lost someone to the terrible illness that is cancer, and Marie Curie were fantastic at the end of my Mother's life so I want to give something back whilst fulfilling my promise to my Mum. The aim will be to lose 1 stone per month until I get down to 20 stone this time next year and reassess my goals from there. If anyone should happen to be in my company for this period, then do not offer me a biscuit!

I will upload various weigh ins and videos of me in rocky style training montages in due course

Thank you to all who donate
