"Fat to Fittie"

As anyone who reads my blogs and listens to the podcast knows, the sausage roll is my nemesis. It’s the one thing I struggle to give up and clearly not the best food to eat when trying to lose weight. Last year I manged to last the whole of lent without one, a miracle that should have received a letter of congratulations from the king. If I’m to hit my goal however and lose enough weight to get my hip operations, I’m going to have to increase the abstinence, so it’s my plan to eat a final one on Saturday 25th Jan and try and go as many days as possible without having another.

My final Sausage roll will be from The pie shop at Clifton Green in York, I had to go out on a decent one, not something made from donkey testical’s, like you get at the supermarket. To assist in my quest, which of course is not dissimilar to the one undertaken by King Arthur and his knights, I’m asking people to sponsor me 3p for every day I go without one. You’re looking at 90p a month and considering I will probably be sweating and shaking around May, it’s likely to only cost you about £3.60, and not that I ever expect to get there, but would end at Christmas, so it’s not going to rise indefinitely and no-one pays until I succumb to the sausage and pasty. food of the gods.

At the moment I don’t have a charity for all money raised to go to and I’d appreciate any suggestions, one thing’s for sure though, by the time I’ve finished, something will be set up, so all payments go direct to whoever is chosen. If you’d like to support my cause, please send me a PM by whatever method you wish and I’ll add you name to the Roll below, thanking you in advance for your kind gesture.
