Grinding to a halt

Lizzie Grimaldi weighs 5st 11lbs and in a last ditch attempt to gain weight is doing a sponsored weight gain in aid of Hospice of St Francis.

Lizzie aims to put on a stone and a half in a year.

Each week Lizzie posts part of her diary describing how she is finding the challenge.

Diary 4th June 2008

Another small advance this week - a further 0.3 kilos - to 40.3 kilos. Not quite the pound of flesh I had promised my husband, but that means I am now a fraction short of 6stone 5lbs.

Slowly but surely......

Diary 17th June 2008

I seem to have come to a grinding halt. That is 2 weeks without a gain and I am in breach of my contract. I don't know what to do. I was making such progress and feeling so much better and now I am in fear of slipping again. Why couldn't I keep the impetus up on my own?

But at least my BMI is now 14 which is a level at which the hospital would accept me on to the day-patient programme so perhaps that is the way forward.
