Copy Cat
On a recent post Sue wrote that she was going to give her weight away. I thought this was a brilliant idea and asked if she minded if I copied. To which she replied go ahead - the more the merrier. So I rang around to find out how I could donate 10kg worth of food. There are heaps of organisations around but I didn't know any near by and I wanted to make sure that I gave them something they could use. Someone in my office suggested Reverend Bill Crew's Exodus Foundation which delivers food parcels to homeless and abandoned youth and other people in need.
It's only something small, and reminds me that there are people less fortunate than I am, and if I can help in 10kg increments then so be it. Now, onwards to losing the next 10kgs so I can do it all over again.
Thank you Sue for a fantastic idea.

What a fantastic idea. Every year we get all excited about putting gifts under the Kmart tree. maybe I could buy gifts the equivalant of weight lost and do it that way......I love it!

It really is an awesome idea, i think being a copycat is a good thing in this case!

generous spirits you ladies are! i think i may do the same for the local animal shelter. when ive lost 35-40kg or however many i will buy the lost weight worth in cat/dog food and flea medication.
