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.

oh - obviously I am the numpty. God you must think I am mad if you could see tht as feasible.

zippitippitoes · 26/07/2008 22:46

now is it me or does this make no sense

i paid for our flights and car hire

bf paid for everything while we were away

we havent actually worked this out yet but he has paid less than me

so he says if i see him tomorrow evening he will take me out for a meal as he owes me money

or if i prefer he will give me the money

TooTicky · 26/07/2008 22:46

No, not drunk [hard stare]
I haven't had alcohol for lots of months. Probably more than a year.

Mary had a little yam?

BBBee · 26/07/2008 22:46

BBBee · 26/07/2008 22:47

TooTicky · 26/07/2008 22:47

Bee, you said something about the mix of flavours and anything goes, so it seemed almost plausible.

TooTicky · 26/07/2008 22:49

I wish somebody would make me some toast.

BBBee · 26/07/2008 22:49

can we have 'franny had a little yam' or is that too removed.

pinkspottywellies · 26/07/2008 22:50

Zippi, if he's worked it out and feels it's not fair then thank him let him take you out for dinner. Unless he's really poor and that would make you feel bad.

MamaG · 26/07/2008 22:50

any which way he is lovely zips

pinkspottywellies · 26/07/2008 22:52

Oh I see what you mean MamaG. I guess he was just thinking he wanted to spend more on you. Maybe he thinks you'd feel odd about taking money off him.

I'm sorry Zippi, I'm too tired to understand the question.

No no, not marg Pink, peanut butter and jam

zippitippitoes · 26/07/2008 22:53

he has worked out he owes me money so he has offered to take me out for a meal instead of paying me back lol

that is what i thought

but i also thought he was the one with the brain

TooTicky · 26/07/2008 22:55

I once made an apple pie with more pumpkin than apple. Nobody noticed.

Should I be making a new thread?

zippitippitoes · 26/07/2008 22:56

yes i like mary had a little yam

TooTicky · 26/07/2008 22:57

Would the money be more useful? If not, go for the meal.

MamaG · 26/07/2008 22:57

I like franny/mary had a little yam
