Hey Mr. Tangerine Man - 10 / 10 thread

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

Hello

Lovely pictures, Bero. You look a bit like me. You have gorgeous children.

Hope littlerach feels better soon. Fabulous pic of your DDs.

lol @ zippi's puffy willy area.

Date went well - went for ethiopian food and ate with fingers. He coped well with my no meat thing and didn't do eye rolling like most people. Then wandered around some hippy/ goth/ odd shops which were like the places I spent my teenage years in - incence, tie die t-shirts, floaty skirts, DMs, mirrored things, leather jackets and some slightly strange things.

It's Mother's Day so no F&V for me. Oh, actually, I had blueberries and strawberries with soy icecream for lunch.

zippitippitoes · 11/05/2008 19:18

glad date went well UR

i havent been waiting to pounce i just finished my accounts

apart from counting my stock that is

i have wqasted so much time when i could have done them and then done something else today

but i always do that

UnderRated · 11/05/2008 19:19

Ooo, well done BBBeee. Very impressive.

BBBee · 11/05/2008 19:19

tell more about date - more about food and more about company.

had to go to A&E with ds today - fell from climbing frame - suspected broken wrist. Is fine though (well as fine as these things can be) and can't moan as has been much hellish for others of late. I just felt weird and neglectful not mentioning it to you.

UnderRated · 11/05/2008 19:20

My days are like that too. I should have done my taxes. But haven't.

UnderRated · 11/05/2008 19:22

Well, if I start, I may gush. He was lovely. Made me laugh lots. He stayed over (nothing happened) and I got silly and was telling him my embarrassingly childish jokes. There was kissing. It was, um, nice. But I think he may not the best one ever. Does that matter?

BBBee · 11/05/2008 19:24

they can;t be the best one ever on the first kiss - that is odd and he would turn out to be a derren brown type.

UnderRated · 11/05/2008 19:26

Ah, ok. Perhaps you are right. He was lovely anyway. And very gentlemanly. And he brought me a tin of imported baked beans and a treacle sponge

BBBee · 11/05/2008 19:30

is he the HP sauce one?

I can only eat mushrooms or tomatoes on toast with LOTS of HP sacuy sauce.

UnderRated · 11/05/2008 19:32

Yes, he's the HP sauce one!

We had some with veggie shepherds pie last week and it was yummy.

UnderRated · 11/05/2008 19:41

It's not zippi's willy that is puffy, just the area. On her shorts. Because they are too big. I think.

Fullmoonfiend · 11/05/2008 20:26

sigh. Idyliic day by river with dinghy and picnic and friends and fishing for tiddlrs etc.

But now fecking boat has broken down near Nottingham and our friends who are driving it up orth are stranded. Tis only a little problem but my god! The Stress!!
