Speed Food Challenge

[Lily42uk]

Hope your daughters are well after their starlight walk Lily How did it all go? x

Hi Twinkle, they did an amazing job, they completed the 13 miles in 3 hours and 20 mins, not bad in my opinion for 4 ladies (they had another 2 friends with them) who have never walked anywhere close to that many miles until they started training for this walk and also from Slimming World club S.Oxhey, they are all astounding, in a bit of pain today but they are good, more tired than anything.
Hubby, myself and 2 of my eldest daughters children met them for breakfast this morning. I was awake all night talking to them and encouraging them, and I am definitely going to try to get fit enough to do it next year myself. Apart from anything else they got a snog from Martin Kemp, that alone is worth the pain in my opinion lol xx

Anyway, my list for today is very small, even though I was careful with most of what I had for breakfast at the cafe (they are superb nothing is too much trouble, they even get low fat sausages in for us, blinding), I have felt sick ever since, I think it was the white crusty bread lol, I just couldn't resist, I haven't had any for over a year now and I used to buy 3 crusty loafs a week...oh well it's taught me a lesson, stick with my wholemeal from now on...so onto my list.

Strawberries
Cherries
Cabbage
Baby Courgette
Carrots
French beans
Mushrooms
Onions
Banana*
Chicken

* free but not speed

Oh well nose back to the grindstone tomorrow, got WI on Tuesday
xxxxxxx

That's definitely the biggest reason to sign up for next years walk lol...oh and raising the money for charity of course.
Martin starts the walk every year, his wife is a local girl and they are often seen out and about in Watford .
My daughters said they were about 15 minutes later starting than anyone else cos they were determined he wasn't getting away until they'd got their snog lmao and I would do exactly the same lol

I have put some pics in my profile and hoping to add a couple more when they get them.

Gary? They aren't twins, Gary was born 16th October 1959 and Martin 10th October 1961, So Gary is actually 2 years older, but everyone remembers them as the Kray twins and assumes that they were twins in real life...but I get what you mean lol...Gary hmmm not quite as cute as Martin or Johnny but who am I to be fussy lol xx

I had the ultimate sin hun, went to the cafe had ...and I feel so silly that I allowed myself to be tempted after 18 months of not going anywhere near that kind of stuff ....1 full fat fried sausage, I fried egg, 2 slices fried black pudding, I large bubble and squeak again fried, 2 rashers of bacon yep fried again, heaps of mushrooms fried in butter and 2 slices of thick white crusty bread with lashings of butter then had a cup of tea with skimmed milk and a sweetener lol after all that muck I remembered the sweetener and skimmed milk oh well ...won't be doing that again, I know my body can no longer tolerate all that fat, so looking to lose the 3lb and 1lb extra if I can this week xxx
