Pak choi to the world - the gourd is come! 10/10 thread

984 replies

FrannyandZooey · 06/01/2009 17:48

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

Have any of you ladies heard of The Mother magazine? I think you would find it interesting.

Roffling at vegan vulvas.....you get a sticker for making me smile....I have got such a dirty mind am struggling to not write something that I will regret later......chuckle.

I am all over the place on my bike today and it is raining, I would rather run in the rain but don't have time.

Had a bit of a tidy up yesterday and have banned people from filling up all flat surfaces with crap stuff. I am not popular....he-he.

Still smirking at 'lollies'. will be smirking to myself on and off all day!

Have a good day all...catch you later..xx
