Dedicated Swallower of Passion (Fruit) - 10 / 10 thread

[FrannyandZooey]

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

Mine is lentil & bacon with a few other bits and bobs thrown in for good measure. I brought it to work for lunch but I am only just feeling hungry now and I finish in 15 mins - -plenty more at home though so I may have some when I get in.

Have also had a couple of biscuits. Healthy eating not going too well atm.

LOL at "I hereby declare them cunting"
oh god it does not take much to amuse me, a bit of crossed out profanity does the trick

that zzooey person seems to have only joined to discuss Steiner - she says she isn't a mum, so I can't see it being a problem in the long term can you?

have had some mixed salad and some melon and grapes. And some fairy cakes with chocolate on the top - well ONE, as we only had enough sugar to make 5 of them!

Booja Booja are the most fab vegan truffles - absolutely amazingly delicious and luxurious.

so glad my title was appreciated - it is the most catchy song known to man or vegger I think

There's a MamaD as well

you lurk on here an awful lot MamaG, don't think we haven't noticed

when are you going to take the plunge and join us, eh?

Generally fucking well works for me too

truffles... mmmmmmmmmm

off home now hurrah. Have been completely unable to concentrate today.

I did out myself then didn't I

oh I dunno I'm alreayd doing slimming world - today have eaten:-

banana
apple
banana (again)
raisins
peas
sweetcorn
orange

will be having grapes, carrots and cauli for tea

so I sort of already AM a 10/10er

Oh, I love a bit of crossed out cunting too. It's so expressive.

Franny - that was a disappointingly reasonable response to your semi name usurper, I was expexcting 'how very dare they' at least.

oh I can't be arsed
it must be the hormones
shall i go and have a bit of fisticuffs with them?

MamaG I am sorry you had to eat the banana twice. Was it a particularly lively one?

no, iate it again after i'd pood it out

might tatse better than the grapes, carrot and cauliflour combo which you mentioned for tea

ew, MamaG!

Franny, no fisticuffs, no, peace and love all around.

I am having fajitas for dinner and I am looking forward to them very much. I will attempt to stuff them with vegetables and salsa and guacemole.

Hello all,

Moony, can you please send me the book circle addresses email again, my laptop is kaput, and I can't access old mail, thanks v much!

have to dash, DS is screaming!

Hello

Not too good at f&v today. I've had mostly 3 biscuits and some tea.

I'm going to make a healthy dinner now though, but not decided what. What is really really easy? I've got back ache and tummy ache and a head ache and need something I can make without trying very hard.

Hello everyone

I can still move after gym induction which seems a marvel

I think considering it is 5pm and I haven;t started anything for supper, we will be ahving a stir fry.

Have had bowl of fruit and leftover lentil moussaka for lunch which may have contained 0.2 of an aubergine (there wasn;t much left)

MrsC that sounds terribly painful and upsetting. When DS' top teeth came through I had to phone NCT BF counsellor for the first time in 9 months begging for help because DS was gnawing at me...but not really biting.

Hopefully it was just a one-off.

will do, your ldayship!

though you're posting to me, you noodle have you lost my addy?

Back briefly,

Yes I have, I am a plonker, it's official. I can remember the name of the house and the city, but that's it!

Tahnks again!

I hope it was a one off too, FK, it's still really sore. Little blighter.

Boco - how about pasta with anything you've got in the fridge and some pesto? Or beans on toast with tomatoes, I often have this when I really can't face cooking. I tried to send you something today but I was rushing before school and I thought I had your address somewhere in my e-mail but I don't. Can you text or e-mail it to me again. Thanks.

You could have beans with anything, eh MrsC?

or scromlet? (eggs scrambled with mushrooms, cheese, spring onions, spinach, tomatoes...whatever

Boco there's nothing wrong with pasta, or a sandwich IMO, but you have probably done it now. Hope you feel better physically soon - can you have a hot bath when dc are in bed?

My goodness, you all posted a lot last night and this morning!

Well I felt quite a lot better yesterday and DH took me out for lunch. Mixed salad, lobster thermidor and fresh veg and heavenly baked potato with butter. I know it's only a baked potato but a proper one baked just right in the oven, not 'spud ding'. Mmmmm.

With the lobster dinner you get a free bottle of zinfandel and DH had to drink it all what with my odd preferences at the moment. So I added to my F&V with two glasses of OJ.

Boco hope you have eaten and are now soaking in the bath. Have an easy night.

Lobster thermidor I love lobster, haven't had it for ages. We are off to southern Spain in April, I'm hoping to eat lots of really fresh seafood then. Even dh eats it there, all he will normally eat fishwise is a cod wrapped in batter.
