Super cauli-veggie-tastic-Vit C in high doses ! - 10/10 club - all welcome

For anyone who wants a boost to their general health. The suggested goals are:

EAT 10 PORTIONS OF FRUIT AND VEGETABLES EVERY DAY - if you don't usually eat much fruit and veg I would build up gradually or you could upset your digestion.

DO (AT LEAST) 10 MINUTES OF EXERCISE EVERY DAY - can be yoga, stretching or something more energetic. The plan is that the idea of doing 10 minutes is not too daunting, and having started you may well find you want to do more.

There are no restrictions on what you eat so long as you get your 10 fruit and veg as well. The focus is not on weight loss but on improving our energy levels and hopefully our general mood and well-being. Sign up below and post here to tell us how you're getting on and how you are feeling.

Basic guidance on what constitutes a portion of fruit and veg here and you can download more detailed information by following the link at the very bottom of the page

are people really bothered enough to not post because they think people will be offended if they don't respond to each poster?

Gosh

I thought people were just saying the thread was too long and they couldn't be arsed to read it all, or that they didn't really enjoy the jokes when served up cold the next day etc

if what TooT says is true then yes can we all please sign treaty of non-offendedness

the same goes for me with emails, if I don't' reply it is because I am being crap, not because I don't like you or I wasn't interested

Boco · 20/09/2007 22:45

What are we agreeing to? Not being offended if no one acknowlegdes what we've said?

That's fine, agreed.

But i'm a bit hurt no one commented on what i just said in my last post. [wonk]

FrannyandZooey · 20/09/2007 22:45

I might put a twinkle in next time, would you like that?

TooTicky · 20/09/2007 22:46

Yes, 2 people said something to that effect. But typically, and craply, I can't remember who

Boco · 20/09/2007 22:47

Wasn't me. I'm very thick skinned. Although Franny didn't reply to my email and i can't decide if she doesn't like me or isn't interested.

FrannyandZooey · 20/09/2007 22:47

TooT seriously I was not offended

it made me go

but I assumed you were teasing and I was meant to

and also I knew you were so damn right [weep]

anyway I thought it was amusing to get offended about your post asking people not to get offended

[frets] I can't be the ONLY control freak on here, surely? Oh god I AM, aren't I?

FrannyandZooey · 20/09/2007 22:49

oh Boco I didn't did I

erm erm was it about the meet up? Yes it was. I am ignoring emails about the meet up because I haven't done anything about it^

that'll be it

TooTicky · 20/09/2007 22:53

Boco, I thought I knew your name but I searched on facebook and there were lots of them and none of them looked quite as I'd imagined you and I was suddenly unsure. Really, I think I'll stick to the scrabulous site. I am called TooTicky on there, just for a change.

because Franny is not actually offended. If you hadn't replied I would have lain awake worrying and my breakfast wouldn't have tasted right. I am very pathetic atm I think.

IdrisTheDragon · 20/09/2007 22:54

I have control freakery tendencies but rarely follow them through.

TooTicky · 20/09/2007 22:54

And yes, I was teasing. But people never know when I'm teasing because I tend to look rather serious.

IdrisTheDragon · 20/09/2007 22:55

When are you all meeting up? I think you all arranged it before I gatecrashed.

IdrisTheDragon · 20/09/2007 22:56

I am rarely offended as well.

Which is good.

womblingalong · 20/09/2007 23:06

Thanks everyone!

FK, Meds are tricky,you are right, although he is quite good about them all except this tablet one. God I hope it gets better asap! .

Franny on LLL, I just tried the local numbers, and nobody answered, i've tried a few times now, will try again in the morning, and if not will call the main number.

Got to go to sleep,am ded on my feet. night all.

WA

FrannyandZooey · 21/09/2007 08:30

Oh call the main number Wombling, then you'll get someone (should do at least). the local leaders are just volunteer mothers and don't do shifts or anything - they will be out a lot / on holiday just like the rest of us

Idris the meet up isn't all arranged yet, I will email everyone at the weekend with more stuff about it. Can you email me on frannyandzooey at india dot com please to remind me to include you? Same goes for anyone else on here who I miss out - it isn't intentional.

TooT I am sorry I teased back. I hate that feeling when you think someone is pissed off with you. Earlier when I wrote that dreadful post that I got deleted, I thought Boco had read it and then wasn't responding to me on another thread and it sort of bkows out of all proportion doesn't it? You are right though, you do look serious and it did fool me for a minute....

FrannyandZooey · 21/09/2007 08:30

I am eating peaches (2) apples (2) raisins (1)

the fruit man cometh

pinkspottywellies · 21/09/2007 08:35

Morning all! If people don't respond to anything I've said I don't feel offended but I do worry that I'm not interesting enough!! Don't worry though - my issue!

Franny, if I can help in any way with the meet arrangements let me know.

I'm now in 4 games of scrabble on facebook!

So far this morning orange juice, plums, raisins. Going for an indian tonight and probably won't be having much veg and my friend is making cream scones for after storytime and I felt it would be rude to say no!

FrannyandZooey · 21/09/2007 08:39

Thank you PSW that is a very kind offer. I think what I need to do is re-establish who is coming now and then book somewhere for lunch. I am up in London in a week so will go and visit venue then (I have somewhere in mind but won't say for now - Boco knows where it is if that gives anyone a clue )

I will email people at the weekend so if you don't hear from me then please harrass me

FrannyandZooey · 21/09/2007 08:41

Oh and for the evening bit I think we should just turn up somewhere (Sunday night not going to be too busy) again I have an idea but we can think about it nearer the time I think. If we just want drinks in the evening there are 100 bars within walking distance, so no need to decide / book anything now I don't think.

lionheart · 21/09/2007 08:44

That's right, just ignore me.

FrannyandZooey · 21/09/2007 08:54

[pokes out tongue]

Carotte · 21/09/2007 08:55

Did someone say something?

FrannyandZooey · 21/09/2007 08:57

No I was just airing my tongue

Carotte · 21/09/2007 08:59

line fresh?

FrannyandZooey · 21/09/2007 09:00

it was filthy I don't know where it had been

Carotte · 21/09/2007 09:01
