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

MangeTooT · 20/12/2008 20:22

Franny, is that a clue?

Guad, I appreciate the thought behind the links but they were very real and technicolor weren't they

FrannyandZooey · 20/12/2008 20:22

god he adores it birds
he said yesterday "making ds2 smile is the happiest thing in the world"

but he has been a bit up and down, everything in his life has changed; he has been a bit tense

FrannyandZooey · 20/12/2008 20:23

BBBee · 20/12/2008 20:23

have reported thread title - very offensive - what were you thinking.

Guadalupe · 20/12/2008 20:24

They were a bit Toot!

Franny - there's something about guads a luping that sounds rude.

MangeTooT · 20/12/2008 20:24

Oh I like that

And 8 Frannies Zooing?

Guadalupe · 20/12/2008 20:24

maybe because it sounds like gonads leaping?

FrannyandZooey · 20/12/2008 20:25
