I always hav to eat something before I go to bed, usually about 9pm( Im usually in bed between 10 & 11), otherwise I can't sleep or wake up hungry. It's always a light healthy snack, within my calories. Doesn't seem to affect my progress!

I was so upset when I heard this on the news, and it's so unfortunate and sad that she was literally yards from finishing the marathon when she died! My heart goes out to her family and friends too. Such a sad thing but amazing at the money that has been raised for such a worthy cause. X
