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.

daisy99malign · 27/10/2008 18:37

Hello all]

  • totally ignorant of your life story and not sure if quetsions are appropriate so forgive if not!!!
daisy99malign · 27/10/2008 18:38

LOL at non dirty child - doesn't happen down my way either

pinkspottywellies · 27/10/2008 18:39

Haven't got time to catch up. Having a lovely non-veggie time at my sisters eating mostly chocolate I figure then when I get home I get out of holiday mindset and eat properly again. No harm done!

Went to the beach today. Apart from that having very lazy time and not planning to move from sofa! DD sleeps in room with computer so have to get off here in a sec and put her to bed.

Back on Wed so will catch up then. Will have to get more organised next time Guad and arrange to meet up with you again.

daisy99malign · 27/10/2008 18:54

Hi pink sounds like you're having fun

pass the chocolate!!

hammouhouseofhorror · 27/10/2008 20:15

Don't know what to say about your half brother and sister but by the smiley face you seem ok...hope tis good for you.
Got out for a run...yippee.
Had apple and blackcurrant pie swimmimng in double cream when I got back..felt sooooo decadent...practising being a sultry harlot!
Hey pink.... of time on beach.

DD spends quite a lot of time being a 'laydee', she is a little sweetie.

Didn't make soup (was on here.....but I really needed a day to chill), so added
another pear,
beans.

More Labour vibes for MamaG

MamaG · 27/10/2008 22:23

You've found the key - you have to mention F&V!

Everything has stopped back to waiting!

CharleeInChains · 28/10/2008 09:35

Morning.

Oh i am sending lots of Labour vibes to mamaG [Charlee sits crossed legged on the floor and hums for a while]

I am tidying (what a bloody suprise!) I have a cf parents meeting later and the boys are off to a halloween party with my mum.

OsmosisBOOnana · 28/10/2008 09:40

ello.

Good luck MamaG!

Anyone know anything about DIY?

I am ripping out old skirting boards, in one of them I have discovered an old lead pipe which goes into the plaster and out through the skirting board. What on earth is it?

No F&V as yet but I have plans to remedy the situation.

filthymindedSixSixSixen · 28/10/2008 10:19

daisy, i thought i hadposted saying I loved your name but it didn't post for some reason...

'Opening' vibes for MamaG...don't make me have to start posting you links of erm cervixes 'flowers' opening wide...

MamaG · 28/10/2008 10:54

Os-ba that thing you describe sounds like an old lead pipe of unknown use. HTH

Filth, no please don't post any links to open cervixes [gulp]

I'm a bit wary of stuffing loads more F&V down me as I had to RUN to the loo earlier and I had awful diarrhoea (sorry if tmi!!)

TooTIfYouAreScared · 28/10/2008 13:45

Hello.

Hint of tomato and garlic.

Sending nice quick-but-not-too-quick vibes to MamaG.

OB, a disused pipe of some kind? [helpful]

V. pleased to have found half-brother and sister. Bit apprehensive too. Had only very limited contact with them. One of those "oh god I hope they like me" things.
