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

zippitippitoes · 17/04/2008 12:58

coffee and cake sounds fine meeting strangers sounds too much of a challenge and they might be thos epolite kind

stuffitllama · 17/04/2008 13:01

they are frightfully polite
they don't eat enough cake for my liking though

i am going to attend to my purgatory of a sitting room before anyone comes to sit in judgement

stuffitllama · 17/04/2008 13:02

Yikes. I'm getting nauseous just thinking about going for a 20 min jog later...

FrannyandZooey · 17/04/2008 14:09

it is an evil class invented to torture pg women
you have to do terrible things for 1 h 25 mins, then you get to lie on a giant squashy mat and listen to whale farts for 5 mins and feel the endorphins rushing through your veins

however at 1 h 25 I have to leave to get ds from nursery
so I don't even get to lie down
