Guava Guava Guava Hey! Over The dill With The Strawbs Of A Thousand Men - 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

Speak for yerself.

Soup. I forgot that.
So 6

Actually, shouldn't 2 sticks of celery be at least 2 portions? It was awfully chewy.

Title suggestions:

It means sweetcorn to pea, oooooooooh banana (Vienna)

Wake pea up before you go-ji (please don't tell me I need to say what this is!)

I can't work out what "We skipped the lime and mango,Turned kumquats 'cross the floor" is although I know I know it.

I vote for Wake pea up before you goji

Fruit flavoured kids vitamin chewy things - that must count as 10. I had about 10 of them

A whiter shade of pale by Procol Harem SB. It goes something like 'we tripped the light fandango, turned cartwheels across the floor'

After an terrible f&v weekend I need some FOCUS. There is defo a pattern appearing here. I say this after EVERY weekend. Obviously dh is a bad influence

TheMitsubishiWarrioress · 08/06/2009 09:49

I have Anthony Gormly plinth , that man is my hero...

Franny, can you get 5 minutes to pamper yourself or book an appointment for a swishy haircut?

I do like mondays, DD is off but she is such a sweetie..

ILikeToMoveItMoveIt · 08/06/2009 10:36

Grumpy, tired and Monday morning are a shite combination Franny. I hope the day improves for you.

mollyroger · 08/06/2009 10:53

Another huge Gormley fan here. how fantastic for your sister, Franny!
