To all the people have contacted me directly, with words of support or links and information about new ideas and ways to lose weight. I’m sorry I didn’t get back to you like I should have. I’m terrible at these kind of things despite having my phone permanently attached to me I seem to get a bit of a mental block when it comes to replying to emails.

You are not alone I do it to my family and friends as well as people whom I’ve requested information from. Who have been polite enough to reply, sometimes I don’t even read the initial e.mail I think I will go back to it later but never do! Still I would like to thank you for your suggestions and yes in these cases I did check out the information, and discovered it wasn’t for me.

I am glad it’s working for you though and hope you continue with your journeys.

I’ve had to disable direct comments to the blog, because I was getting so much spam it was ridiculous. It was also near on impossible to know which ones were genuine.

You can always contact me through twitter and I will be sorting out a Facebook group at some point, I think it will be an easier place to have discussions and to keep more updated about my riding than on the blog. if in the meantime you do want to get hold of me though its jennie@diet2ride.com

Again thank you for your support, it is always nice to know there are people in the same boat as up you. Who understand what you are going through. Sometimes I think people misinterpret what it is you want from them when it comes to losing weight. It’s such a personal thing.

I truly believe if I’m ever going to lose the weight or find a happy place I need to work things out for myself. Otherwise I will just be following someone else’s set of ideals of how to lose weight, which knowing my nature I wouldn’t follow it for very long.
