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 all!

Ooo. you've been having a party on another thread? Wow, hope you had fun

FMV, how are you feeling?

Happy Birthday Big Guadlet, sounds very grown up with guitar and all

SB, I am always up in middle of night because I have hard time getting work done - that work/life balance you know? My balance is I don't get to sleep much
and you didn't sound rude, I shouldn't ask stupid questions, and then later you posted that you can't even leave the country, so that must be tough, sorry

Right now, my eyes are red and hurt

Pink, lovely to see you

Mango, can't wait to come and feast with you - sound fab

Franny- glad your day turned out so well, cakes? Great, and I love your snorting laughter story - if she's really nice, it will be a bonding thing

hello to all others

SomeOtherFruityBitch · 21/11/2008 01:10

It would seem ds2 still has his bug. Or is having it twice

daisy99divine · 21/11/2008 01:14

toot, is that you? Poor DS2.... very very unfair!

how is DS1 without his teeth? (if it is Toot )

daisy99divine · 21/11/2008 01:14

SuperBunny · 21/11/2008 01:22

Oh no Toot

Hello Daisy

daisy99divine · 21/11/2008 01:29

Hello SB!
how's your day been? full of lettuce

did you go to the oldy vegger party?

SuperBunny · 21/11/2008 01:32

Hello

There was lettuce, actually!

Day was good - we made festive wrapping paper. Which sounds good but we have bought no gifts to wrap up Was fun anyway.

Hope Toot is ok.

What's your name about?

mou · 21/11/2008 01:39

Why are your eyes red and hurt Daisy?, you should be resting (bossy matriarchal emoticon). And no, I am not also working!

Yeeah, Poor Toot, come and be stroked and pampered and lovingly comforted, you are having a tough time, and your DC's.

Hello SB, I was going to e-mail you but have been desparately tryin to send images via e-mail to the account manager of my website, but have a feeling his inbox will be full of strange messages instead. I am hopeless with tech stuff. What a dunce . So sorry about the fred-bob thing. My DS likes to pick my names.

He stood next to me earlier as I came on mumsnet and said;

"mum, will you change your name to 'SmilesLikeNoOther'?"

Me..distracted 'mmmm don't think so love, why?'

"Because I think you have the most beautiful smile in the world, and if I am at school and I am sad, and the sun comes out, I just think 'my mum must be smiling somewhere'. See, you smile like no other."

I forgive him for EVERYTHING!

I am very tempted......

daisy99divine · 21/11/2008 01:40

Ah yes, since I posted I saw you had eaten rocket and lettuce from the garden

My name? It's not about much really. When I joined MN it said choose a name and numbers was a good way to make it not like other people. When I was little I always wanted to call a daughter Daisy but in fact firstly I had a son and secondly today it's a name that's used quite a lot imo, and actually I've sort of gone off it, but it has always been my sort of nom de plume

Funnily enough I was thinking of changing my name cos everyone else seems to have rather sophisticated names and I sound a bit silly and flowery and in my more paranoid moments I think that might be why people ignore my posts....

that was longer than you bargained for!

SuperBunny · 21/11/2008 01:44

Mou!

No rush for email - work is much more important. And exciting. I think you should change your name. You have the loveliest DS. I hope mine will say things like that.

Why are your eyes hurty, daisy? I don't think it sounds too girly and flowery.

mou · 21/11/2008 01:46

I love the name Daisy, and have a daisy tattoo, so please don't change it.

Sophisticated is actually not big and clever. It means..'to make less natural...to make less true, genuine or honest,' etc I would have 100 daisy's every time to one silly sophisticated person type...so there!

SuperBunny · 21/11/2008 01:46

The Hairspray advert is hurting my eyes

SmilesLikeNoOther · 21/11/2008 01:49

There, time to test drive a new name.

What is it about the advert SB?

daisy99divine · 21/11/2008 01:51

how sweet you are! well daisy I will stay!

eyes red and hurty cos of lack of sleep

what a lovely DS Mou, but when I first read it a bit quickly I thought proposed name was Smiles Like An Otter - still sweet but a bit ! lol

SmilesLikeNoOther · 21/11/2008 01:56

Rofl, I like that as well!

SuperBunny · 21/11/2008 01:57

new name looks good, mou.

It's all the different letters in different colours jiggling about. I wish it would go away. I should go and make my christmas cards.

daisy99divine · 21/11/2008 01:57

Like the new name, Mou, well done!
