You can do it Sandy but dont forget the reason I did it was cos I thought I had cancer and was dying for a month and when I was all clear I thought I had dodged the bullet and had a second chance, so that was a MAJOR kick up the bum to get my life back into gear.

I dont recommen that way of losing weight!!

Make sure you ask the right question. Not "Are you paying me?" but "How much are you paying me?" If you don't get the money reasonable quickly, invoice them.
