I could chose a life of Peas then I would be a boatman - 10/10 thread

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

For a moment I thought Franny had a bokashi computer and was mightily impressed.

Hugs here but handshakes and salutes for Franny if she prefers.

I have had about 8 only slightly interrupted hours of sleep so WHY AM I MORE TIRED THAN I WAS LAST NIGHT?

TooTicky · 17/01/2009 09:02

Goodness Oggsdog, most of us don't manage half that.

Feather, glad you made it back from wider mn.

i can't remember what kibnesiology is
anyway, you couldn't offend me if you tried

TooTicky · 17/01/2009 09:40
FrannyandZooey · 17/01/2009 09:45

ugh who left this HUG on my chair

FrannyandZooey · 17/01/2009 09:47

kinesiology
well as i understand it they check for allergies and stuff
by giving you a container of the stuff to hold and then watching what your arm does
it's to do with electrical currents
oh but you hold the stuff in a plastic container PMSL

sorry if above is not correct
is third hand info but did make me laugh

TooTicky · 17/01/2009 09:57

will try stealth hug next time. When you sit on it a message glows on your bottom "I HAVE BEEN HUGGED"

Go on, offend me

TooTicky · 17/01/2009 09:58

kinesiology sound complicated. There are so many oddcthings out there aren't there.

Guadalupe · 17/01/2009 10:17

We are not all huggy.

I don't know much about keniesi wotsit. Is it to do with the eyes or the muscles or something?

I have to go to that posh christening tomorrow and I can only find the right one of three pairs of smart shoes. I have no idea what to wear and it's all a bit late. Sigh.

Pineapple, banana, rhubarb and cherries and blackberry and acai smoothie.

Guadalupe · 17/01/2009 10:18

blackberry and acai smoothie. The others were in their full fibre form.

TooTicky · 17/01/2009 10:19

Does anybody know how to get firefox to stop remembering passwords? Please.

Guadalupe · 17/01/2009 10:20

No idea, sorry. Does it not say, do you want firefox to remember this password when you first use it?

TooTicky · 17/01/2009 10:25

TinyWhiteFeather · 17/01/2009 10:27

My toenail just dropped off....I am not getting in the swimming pool at the party I will scare all the children...toe nailless freak.
I am devastated.

Lol at Toots glowy hug on bottom message though!

I am the 10/10er with the least toenails...bah
