Deny thy burger and refuse thy bacon, and if thou wilt not, be but corn my lovage and I will no longer be a cabbage head - 10/10 thread. All welcome!

[pinkspottywellies]

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.

Hello! I am slowly getting my 10/10 act back together again. Diss sounds lovely. I'm glad you all had a good day. I have been gazing wistfully at the forest all week while administering herbal tea and rice cakes to sufferers of high temperatures on the sofa. Kindly passed on to us all by Dh before he left for Russia.

think it was because i sent him this with a rose to his work

Zippi don;t feel left out

MrsC thanks for the reminder, I have a sore throat and of course I need to gargle with vinegar

Good present, fRANNY

i had prawns and red pepper and mushrooms and broccoli and cauliflour

and i did gym and swim a mile

oh and mandarin and two more kiwis

Oh, the fried egg sounds lovely. What a nice present.

I don't think the sweets were particularly pointy, no, but they obviously had great presence in her mind. I think she has probably pictured them larger than life, jewel-like and gleaming in the road.

Heart-shaped bubble & squeak would be perfect

i think i already said i did the gym and swim

it seems to have been a very long day to day

Hello Sauerkraut!

Hello FK

gazing at the forest sounds very romantic

garglking with vinegar sounds disgusting

Well, better than nowt on Valentine's Day, seeing as Dh isn't here, I suppose!

what if you were gargling vinegar while gazing at the forest?

that would be impossible

something would bound out from behind a tree and you would choke and swallow it. yuck.

And by the way, if I may make so bold as to say so, I have had: 3 bowls of veg soup (with my famous flu-fighting chicken stock), an apple, a banana, raisins, a pear, tomato sauce and avocado. Ho yes.

I had some cabbage, corn, some salad at lunchtime, and a banana and strawberry smoothie

Oi BBBee! Over 'ere!

How odd, zippi

I think we'll have a strawberry smoothie for supper.

I have just discovered that I now have to get my presecriptions by mail order

I am dirking pink bubbles.

We had some asparagus and rocket and tomatoes in our supper.

ah hello - got you now - thought something untoward had occured.

Have only been able to skim.

You have done meeting?!?!

Good evening. Are you all in bed now?

I have carried monstrously heavy library books (about 27 of them), carried dd2 quite a bit, delivered newspapers at top speed in freezing cold and altogether covered several miles.
Not done brilliantly for f&v though - no time!

Ds2 made his Beaver promise today

Good evening... For the first time in ages I feel like telling you what I ate today but I must go to bed NOW

I am tired

Good night Tatties.
