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

no i think it is excellent..i had a moment of confusion

MissCreant · 02/02/2008 12:30

Oh good

I am bored of carrot and this way franny anybody can still call me Mrs C or Miss C without finding it too weird.

Amazing how a name change affects the way you post, I feel quite different really. You must know this, name change afficiondo that you are.

ZippiBabes · 02/02/2008 12:32

actually i thought your posts sounded a bit different and yes it does make a difference..oddly enough

im sure there is room for research/analysis there

MissCreant · 02/02/2008 12:35

Yes

I feel slightly more acerbic

ZippiBabes · 02/02/2008 12:38

I am always always always calling you MrsC [stubborn] and I will call you MrsCarrot if I feel like it

I am calling you it loudly over the tinkling fountains and delicate clatter of bone china "oh look COOEE! Here she is COOEEEE MRS CARROT!"

yes I reckon when you are doing 10 a day then you could have TWO portions as pulses. They are really good for you.

fullmoonfiend · 02/02/2008 13:06

I'm sorry, but I shall struggle to adapt from MrsC too!

(Why can't people just stick to one name, mutter mutter...)

MissCreant · 02/02/2008 13:39

oh there is always one

See, you can still call me MrsC can't you, is only a slight deviation from title?

I like it, and I am staying like this for at least today

FMV - hello, pot

MissCreant · 02/02/2008 13:40

anyway, franny, it nearly looks like cunt, does this not endear it to you more?

FrannyandZooey · 02/02/2008 13:48

NO I don't like the 'nt' and the 'cr' and it makes you look at it about 4 times before you work out what it actually says

you know I am just fussy about this, trying to persuade me will have no effect

OP posts:
FrannyandZooey · 02/02/2008 13:49

I think we may need a new title today if we keep gassing like yesterday
put your artistic energies into that instead

lol ..i just say a selection of random things to make you creatives retaliate

Wake Up Lyrics
Artist(Band):The Arcade Fire
Review The Song (16) Print the Lyrics
Somethin' filled up
my heart with nothin',
someone told me not to cry.

But now that I'm older,
my heart's colder,
and I can see that it's a lie.

Children wake up,
hold your mistake up,
before they turn the summer into dust.

If the children don't grow up,
our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up.
We're just a million little gods causin' rain storms turnin' every good thing to
rust.

I guess we'll just have to adjust.

With my lightnin' bolts a glowin'
I can see where I am goin' to be
when the reaper he reaches and touches my hand.

With my lightnin' bolts a glowin'
I can see where I am goin?
With my lightnin' bolts a glowin'
I can see where I am, go-go, where I am

You'd better look out below

carry on

fullmoonfiend · 02/02/2008 14:09

zesty fibrestarter?

fullmoonfiend · 02/02/2008 14:11

The other one which came to me earlier was
Dedicated Swallower of Passion(fruit)

(I was listening to the Kinks)

No doubt someone will think it is rude...

FrannyandZooey · 02/02/2008 14:37

well it IS rude
it is good though
