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

helloo wrong

ThePinkOne · 17/08/2009 20:19

Mayo, you were supposed to be doing a tortilla masterclass. Although if they're easy to make I perhaps shouldn't trust myself with that level of availability of wraps!

Broccoli, carrots, tomato, apple, nectarine (or was it a peach, I forget [baby-brained]), whatever bits of plum DS dropped!!, salad in a cheese scone.

Whatever happened to boot camp? We need focus.

Boco · 19/08/2009 11:08

Well. Franny really didn't need to worry about her ownership of vegland did she. She goes off to a jam thread for a few weeks and we're all sitting on a raft, in rags, ship sunk, eating chewits and probably smoking galois.
