Thankfully, things are a lot better at home. Doug came home with flowers yesterday, and called me ‘Bumble Puff’, Sugar Bum’ and ‘plumb plumb’ about ten times in one evening.
Sara has been very excited about the success of her talk, she said there was a massive turn out. People working at the leisure centre ended up getting annoyed because the peole who turned up for their water aerobics class had nowhere to park the car. Sara quite rightly pointed out that all the ladies who went to water aerobics were overweight and would have been better off coming to hear her talk, or alternatively walking to the leisure centre. Sara wants to write to you by the way, I don’t think she wants counseling, as she pretty much counsels herself, but I think she does want to email you; i told her I'd have to ask your permission first-i wouldn't just give out your email address.
So you will have over 201 people emailing you instead of 200. Don’t worry about that though, I think Sara will write shorter ones than me, she is a lot busier; she used to work in the bank and is used to writing short letters which get to the point. She really is amazing, If you saw her now for the first time you would never believe she used to work at Natwest Bank and be 18 stone. She lost five stone in three years. She was winner of weight watchers of the year in 2001. Just think! She’s ten stone four now and travels all round the country doing talks that other people pay to listen too.
Having now read half way through your book ‘Being your Being’ I can see how she was so inspired by you. If she writes to you please write back to her, it would absolutely make her day. Just think Doctor Bedford, you inspired her and now Sara is inspiring Dorking. So in a way, I can thank you for Sara’s tasty low fat muffins and doughnuts, which she makes using Candarel spoonful instead of sugar.
I’ve decided to talk to Douglas frankly about having children again. |f he hasn’t enough time to get to involved we can always hire extra help and get a nanny. I have enough time to bring them up even if he doesn’t.
Thanks Doctor Bedford,
Charlotte. x
