Lentil Guru - is it stew? - 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

and who is alychee i knew rthere was something weird about her posting something nice to me

oh bugger about link. neer mind, tis a Bongo we are saving for.

We have no savings left to just go and buy another van, as DH was out for work for 4 months this year, so savings all gone.

Oh really FK? I got the impression they were more accessible than that.
Sorry you're feeling limp and mouldy.

i wasnt around and then i did post yesterday but for some reason not much on 10/10

and i have been at college but got involved in a diet thread

i didnt post my lunch on that tho as i was smugly saying how to lose weight

ZIP - I changed mine to aPlum in all seriousness and they conspired against me to ridicule this with mass fruity name changes so I am forced to revert to carrot. I expect Franny was behind it.

aLychee is Lully

Oh

RIP FMF's Van

is she?

I had no idea who was who, you big mass of fruits.

everyone is being very slightly out of character once they have name changed

IMO

is that why?

I can't work them out, apart from fruiticky. I am staying clumpy today.

Did you go to the library? I haven't been for ages and no doubt we have fines again. i always mean to renew them online.

oh come on, I'm hardly in major disguise!! (Adjusts free papier mache bodysuit)

I suppose I ought to put them all to bed. I can't really be bothered to move, there seems to be spaghetti in the way of any route out of this room.

I think I have PMT actually, yes, just checked the calendar and I do. I better make sure I always write it down or I will get in a right muddle and never have an excuse for mardiness.

Where is the wine?

i thought it muight be lully but didnt quite sound like her
and yes i expect franny was behind it mrs c

we went yes
I don't usually get fines because you don't get them on a child ticket and I have a home ed ticket for me which is also fine free
I used to have the most horrific fine issues and had to abandon several library tickets I am ashamed to say

so if this is not too in depth a question, do you still have a hormonal cycle but you won't actually menstruate, or have I got that completely wrong?

oh, yes, I did get you too.

Well, at least spaghetti is easier to pick up than bulghur wheat

none of it was organised
I was aMelon or whatever and then they all started doing it
s'not my fault

We get fines on child tickets.

we get them on all of our child tickets

yes, I have a hormonal cycle but no period so I get the PMT and then presumably it just lifts? I don't know yet. Having it is a good sign, means the ovaries are still working as normal I believe.

that's bad TooT
it would put me off using the library actually
I would happily pay for the service ona monthly subscription or something, I don't begrudge giving them money, but fines are just too scary and they get out of hand

have you been taking your essence of goat? it is very balancing you know

spaghetti is annoying to pick up off the floor, it would be a nightmare on the sofa. So sticky.

I have NOT been taking my essence of goat, I forgot about it, i will have some right now. I've been spraying vervain everywhere.

I have to pay a small fortune in fines, especially if a dvd is involved, sometimes as much as ten pounds.

Dd1 currently has £2.60something fines outstanding. She has lost her ticket so I couldn't renew and didn't know what was there.
OH she has just found it. Good.

Do your libraries have annoying machines? Do they make you use them?

does it taste of goat?
I hope not

ooh gosh I have got my lovely spray you gave me
I must go and squirt
