Fighting Political Fat

My sterner critics may say (unfairly) that I am already too big for my boots - but I confess to having allowed myself to become a little too big for my trousers ! Well all that is about to change. I have signed up for Weightwatchers' rigid eating schedule in order to shed several unwanted stones. And I intend to fight the flab just as hard as I fight for local people.

The current statistics are a little frightening. At the Parliamentary Weightwatchers Club in January 2004 I tipped the scales at a little over 15 stone. The Weightwatchers specialists say I need to lose 4 stone fast. And I am doing it for charity as well as my own health. If you want to sponsor me feel free to e-mail and offer a pledge - every penny raised will go to the British Heart Foundation.
