Eat fruit and vegetables - 10/10 thread BOOTCAMP, all welcome

[SuperBunny]

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

SB so sorry. It's terribly shocking to get news like that, and in such a way.

ABW, no flaming, just a friendly ear and shoulder.

sorry ab out your friend SB xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Oh SB Hugs for you too. It's especially shocking when someone is close in age to you, or has similar age children or something. Makes you realise you're not invincible and brings it a little bit closer Hope you feel ok.

Sorry to add this in now, but I'm away now til Friday... I heard from Guad today. She's technology-less but says Hi! and will be back soon.

Tiger, I went to Skeg 2 weeks before DD was born and had a nice freezing paddle in the sea. It was October half term It's obviously the place to be

ABW please go to the doctor and make yourself a priority

Oh SB, it's horrid, isn't it?
Life can be so unfair.

I didn't bother with the sea Pink - it was farking miles away, the tide was right out. We did walk quite a long way though. Almost far enough to cancel out the pie & chips, ice cream, waffle and so forth
