We eat fruit. It is nice. 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

Call that a thread title?

Bee thought of it and everyone said we should have it. I am just the minion of the 10 / 10 ers

Can we have a sweepstake on how many people come in and say "awww what happened to the funny titles"?

I am not commenting on titles this week. I voted for riders on the corn I believe

so i dont have to even try to eat vegetables this week then?

I would like to take the opportunity to do more blatant self promotion and point out AGAIN that I went to the gym for an hour today
I know I got a sticker for my blood pressure but I think I need a sticker AND maybe a poem [high maintenance]

lol lol at your new thread title. I like it.

"we eat fruit, it is nice, We eat vegetables, they are not quite so nice"
didn't have the same ring

hah you see tatter likes it
grab her and sit on her head until I work out who she used to be
it drives me spare daily

That's one for and one against.

Hey I LOVE that title!

Sorry I haven't been back. I ate 10/10 for one day and then there was nothing "good" left in the house. That always happens.

I wanted rocket rollers. i have been singing it for days in readiness.

I do like ''we eat fruit. it is nice'' but....

I have done an hour at allotty tonight and have eaten: banana, raspberries, cherries, smoked mackerel salad with sweetcorn, beetroot, carrot, lettuce, tomato and cucumber. And Baked spuds with tuna wityh letttuce, olives, shredded carrot and red cabbage, cucumber, red peppers and the most divinve little babay yellow plum tomatoes

Is that more than 10...?

F&Z I'm slubbers

I like this title . I don't have to feel that it is a song that I should know but don't.

I like the title

Simple

I do simple rather well

Are we all together again? No splinter thread? I couldn't cope with that. Not simple enough you see.

Strawberries
Raspberries
Mahoosive salad
Pasta bolognese with much tomato and onion

erm....

probably about 7 in all

even I knew that, Franny

it sounds like slubberdewotsit

The song titles I generally get, Idris. It's the literary references I struggle with [science graduate]

oh slubbers! how stupid I am
I wish you hadn't told me now, I always like the suspense better REALLY

My dh is eating mutton pie
I don't why he likes mutton pie
perhaps he'll die

poem for franny's gym efforts

at poem
in what way is that meant to cheer, compliment or inspire me?

I could name change again especially for you, with another polysyllabic de nickname. And you could try and spot me.

tbh that doesn't sound very exciting.

You know, I like this thread title so much I might join the 10/10ers this time round if that's ok?

Not sure how to do it mind.

Di I list everything I have eaten, or just the fruity bits?

I vacuumed a lot today so have absolutely ticked off excercise.

Tatters I love your current name v much so don't change yet
please join us, you can list everything you've eaten if you like, or just the f+v bit
if you read the OP it has links to charts and stuff which explain what counts as a portion and what doesn't
you can eat what you like as long as you get your f+v so don't feel you have to 'confess' to anything

and exercise is meant to be something IN ADDITION to your normal routine
so at ironing
but we are pretty slack as a bunch on the exercise part EXCEPT I WENT TO THE GYM
and all I got was a poem about mutton
