It's occured to me that everyone is being very altruistic here, so I've decided that each person who donates to the initial sum of £560 to get me started will receive a small original "something" handknitted by me.
And, once the sponsoring is open, each 10th person entered on my database of sponsors will receive a larger "something" handknitted by me.
I promise these things will be funky, fashionable or fun - or maybe all three!
It will take me a while to get them all made, but get them all made I will!
I may not be able to contribute much money to this but I can contribute my time and skills.
Please pass this on so others can donate and join in the fun!

This is the story of my weight loss through the Lighter Life programme, Diet Chef and The Cambridge Diet, and of my charity fundraising through sponsorship of my weight loss. I originally aimed to lose 3 stone and to raise £2000 by the end of April 2009. In the end I lost a grand total of 4 stone 4.5 lbs but raised only £375...
Very disappointing. So now I'd like to try to raise £2000 by the time I've lost my target amount, 11 stone or 154 lbs. I'm now well over halfway there, but there's still lots of time and opportunity for YOU to sponsor me. Yes, YOU! Please help me reach my target!
Many of you generously helped me with the costs of Lighter Life Foundation, 10 weeks of Development and 2 weeks of Route to Management - THANK YOU! As I moved onto firstly Diet Chef, then The Cambridge Diet, and now onto real food, there's no longer any need to donate towards the costs of my weight loss.
