Many of you have being taken part in the Charity Weigh In Challenge, well the 20 weeks competition finished last week and on Monday we will announcing the winners. I dont know the results but Diane says the results this time have been amazing. Well done to all those who took part. We will starting a charity weigh in again in August. In the mean remember all you/I(Yes i am talking to myself) have to do to lose weight is cut out eating between meals, eat heathly and get more active (with the help of Peterhead Jogscotland offcourse!). I know from experience it easier said than done, but i found keeping a note book or diary of all you eat helps to keep you on the right track. The Charity Weigh in costs only £5 and the winner nominates the charity the money will go to!! Last time Marshall won and the money went to the Guide Dogs for the blind. What better way to loss weight than knowing a charity will benefit by your efforts!!!!!
