My Bloody Clementine - 10 / 10 thread

[FrannyandZooey]

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

Why don't you just wear a hair shirt and be done with it. With a 100% cotton exterior and breast holes of course.

too itchy, the idea is to ELIMINATE itching

right we need anecdotes and details about your evening
you can't just say oh we danced and got hungover
come on now

but, isn't that like, homeopathy or something. Treat an itch with a itch?

gravy
i am stuck on sofa but this is how i remember it
fry onions and mushrooms, then cook flour. take off heat for a few minutes then gradually add stock, bring to boil, simmer for ages and ages. i think that is it. can do quantities later if needed. it's very nice,

near Kettering (not a city, lol though...lol...)...

oh god i thought you were talking to me then....too itchy

Sorry it is so hard though Franny

I could post you some house trained, homing head-lice Franny, for the treat an itch with an itch theory...

that was to atilla....btw

lol homeopathy
there would have to be like a tiny little hair shirt that you couldn't see
or a hair shirt about 5 miles off

oh dear that will be one of the other next things to waste £60 on

anyway

i am not talking about it this evening am i

Look, shall we just think hair shurt thoughts? And shake and dilute them obv.

blueberries
apple
grapes
raisins
pizza express salad - not a whole portion i don't think
more leaves
whole avocado
red pepper
artichoke, courgette and aubergines
raisins again
banana

oh i did 1 hour at the gym! no wonder i am flipping starving

TooT did you see my muesli recipe? i am hoping it will turn up really soon. it is going to be so nice. i'm going to eat it in the evening when i am hungry

do we need to chant a mantra or something like that whilst doing that Toot?

Sorry, couldn't resist ...hope I am not offending anyone....it's jsut, that a friend , who trained at one point as a Homeopath decided against it, once she realised that there was some dodgy stuff (in her opinion) going on, like witchcraft things...

Some muppet is trying to out who she thinks is Xenia in RL and doesn't understand why she is getting flamed. Even I have learnt better than that.

OB? where? I have gone from thinking I hated Xenia, to being prepared to defend her to the death because she is consistenat and ''what you see is what you get'' which I like and never loses her temper.

If you go into my profile page, twill prob be on threads I'm on... or sumfink.

Like the word grebby. Sounds like a cross between gravy / grubby / plebby

I like Xenia, she takes no shit from no-one like, and as you say, consistent.

Hello OB and Molly

Fairlady, I am the only possible offendee and I am non-offendable.

found it OB (and reported it alog with everyone else!) And thank you for being able to read my appalling spelling and know I meant consistent

I am watching Dancing in the Dark on YouTube and am ridiculously overexcited about seeing The Boss at Glasto

Gah!

lolz, didn't even notice!

I like Xenia too. In fact it's maybe more that I like the fact that you get such different opinions on MN and hers is usually against the grain!! I like it when someone says something that makes me go 'oh, I never thought of it like that' even if I don't agree. But yes the OP of that thread is a twat

I had a big salad with my dinner

Just had some vile strawberries.

lol Toot

Didn't someone already out Xenia at one stage?
I quite like Xenia, too...she is brilliant , infuriating at times, but brilliant

Heyyyy! Molly

There is a silly application on FB called 'lick my lollipop' that a (female) friend invited me on, and I have had to delete it ......sigh

I do mantras Toot! in an unoficial sort of way.

I haven't really come across Xenia, but am a 'live and let live' sort of person. If I obviously don't click with someone I try to avoid the situation rather than trying to inflame it. Humanity is amazing because of its rich diversity and it would be crap if we all thought the same things. I am not plain spoken but can admire people that are....we all need to work to our strengths...I won't change the world but I won't start any world wars either.

C'est la vie an' all that.

Might take a look at the thread, I don't like witch hunts.
