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

Oh Molly, guess at leats he has some work though.
That sounds delicious, so do pancakes, ABW

Dd2 wet the bed last night.
Then was shouting in her sleep, which woke up dd1, who shouted back

Hello newbie veggers.

Off out in a bit to look at our new build classroom

Mmm molly that sounds lovely. You could add clotted cream cinnamon and raisins. Yum.

What shoddy timing

omg, clotted creammmmmmmmmmm!

erm, ok. today bit of a walk, followed by tomfoolery at play park. blackberries. Apple. carrots, kale, beans and peas.
I'm going to double up my points because they all are home grown.

so that's 12 then.....

Walked to friend's house this morning carrying DS and pushing DD on the way and pushing DS home and carrying DD half way back cause it was raining and she's too slow!! So I think that counts as 10 mins. Was planning run tonight but that's a step too far I think! Swimming tomrrow.

And grapes, raisins, mango, strawbs, blueberries (3 portions) salad (1) homemade veg pizza with salad (2) Oh dear a little lacking today. Will snack tonight!

Love the vague recipe TooT Might make them in the morning. Ah, no I won't we've got to be out at 9!! Thursday maybe!

Bootcamp not having desitred effect on me

I did do waddling.

I did do waddling with my sister who is slim and seventeen and gorgeous, whereas I am fat and thirty five and frumpy. She bought a top in a size 6 (she is tiny so doesn't look too skinny) and asked if it made her arse look too big . I feel humungernormously heffalumpy. Still, not long now .

There was cake

Nectarines (2)
Baked Beans
Tomatoes
Cucumber
Pepper
Onino
Radish
Beetroot
Coleslaw
Pizza toppings
OJ

Probably 7 or so in total.

To be honest TF anyone would feel humungernormously heffalumpy against a size 6 let alone at 9 months pg but you are absolutely NOT fat and frumpy!! (although I assume you're telling the truth at being 35?!)

Not long nooooooooooooooooow!

Oh well got to 7 and went for an 1/2 hour walk with the dc's

wht's everyone up to on this rainy chilly day?

It's not so chilly here (although it was this morning), but it is v windy.

We had some chums over this morning, and when I go and wake Baby Lemur up from his nap in a few minutes I think we'll go for a bracing walk in the wind. Our cheeks will be like this

Well done Leo, good vegging!

Windy here too

I have had a friend over for lunch. My sister is still here too. I feel very loved atm, I've had a constant stream of visitors all summer and it's not over yet, I have a friend coming over for a couple of days next week.

Dsis is very dinky, I am much taller than her so I suppose that's good . Her top half is a 6, but she bemoans the fact that her arse is an 8 or even sometimes a 10.

Salad (2)
just about to raid the fruit bowl
profiteroles.

My life seems to have a cakey theme atm.

DD goes back to school a week tomorrow .

Oh and my skin is no longer ravaged by teenage acne [smug evil ]

Afternoon all.

Not enjoying the rain. Only did q twenty minute walk with the dogs today because of the howling wind and rain. Toddler stir crazy-took her food shopping to break up the day, gave her box of dog treats to shake, and when my back was turned she ripped the box open with her teeth and started to eat them. Sigh.

shitty crappy mango of a day

ugger all excercise unless you count muchos houseworkus

right - for the benefit of the thread i think everyone should do a short burst of info about themselves just so everyone can catch up and keep track. i know most of you are on intimate terms and know inside leg measurements etc, but for relative newbies like moi it might be nice. ys? no?

ok.

I am MayorNaze. i have ds who is 10 and 2 dds who are 7 & 3. despite my slackness of late i am a big big fan of the old f&v and have my own allotment to prove it. i am not so much a fan of the excercise but do walk absolutely everywhere which counts a lot. really.
am an old time mner but newish to the thread. and i make damn fine mayonnaise

any questions?

I am a part-time pirate. I too have an allotment. i am generally very happy and optimisitc (When I am not drowning under a shower of shit)
I have 2 boys, almost 9 and almost 12. I like burning stuff, cooking stuff, growing stuff, reading stuff, dancing to stuff, watching stuff, writing stuff, making stuff and being outside and stuff
