Shouting guava guava guava shouting mega mega white bean - 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

I read gay lunch box thread and thought 'this is what we have done to pointy, she puts muesli in her dd's lunchbox fgs.

I went out for a meal last night with friends and some new people. I had social difficulty at bill time, as I'd carefully chosen from the menu which was cheap if you choose only from that menu due to skintness, and then everyone said breezily 'lets just split the bill 6 ways, can't be bothered with faffing about who had what' which would be fine, but I ate things I didn't even want as much as things on the expensive menu because they were CHEAP. And instead of saying 'oh hang on..' I just stewed because I've not met half of them before. But, all in all, it was nice.

I'm not sure why I'm telling you this.

Ugh school fair today. Can't wait for holidays.

raisins
banana

Oh Boco {{{}}}

Pink, please find an extra big sticker for LR for being v sweet and not walking away and abandoning me this morning.

Boco · 02/07/2009 13:27

Hello Toot. Why would LR have abandoned you?

TooTicky · 02/07/2009 13:29

Hello Boco.
I was bloody awful company.

TigerFeet · 02/07/2009 13:47

I've done that Boco, gone for cheap healthy stuff because of diet/skintness and then paid for everyone else's cheesy pizzas [grr]

Hope you're OK Toot. Did dd enjoy her birthday? Your cake is far, far better than the one I made for dd, who is 5 today. I feel quite tearful actually. She's so grown up now [sob][farking hormones]

Take care Mits (())

TooTicky · 02/07/2009 13:57

Not okay really.
Dd2 enjoyed her day though.

Happy Birthday to little Tiger

littlerach · 02/07/2009 14:07

oh TooT, really I just wanted to kidnap you and bring you here and look after you but think you may have resisted.
So instead I wittered on about mundane things

Anyway, my spinach bhaji was dleicious.
But v v big and filling.

TigerFeet · 02/07/2009 14:15

((TooT))

TooTicky · 02/07/2009 14:55

thanks Tiger

TooTicky · 02/07/2009 15:27

LR, did I actually say I would kick that couple on the bench? I was bad, wasn't I?

sorry

TooTicky · 02/07/2009 15:29

And they might have heard, because they were gone when we walked back.

littlerach · 02/07/2009 15:40

Um, yes you did TooT
And yes, they had gone

I don't think the mum from school heard though!!!

I hope R has had a good day.
