Hello everyone, old and new.

This is about feeling better about yourself and looking and feeling better etc. But mainly we chat and laugh quite a lot, which has all got to help towards happiness etc.

The rules (anyone can join):

  • Sunscreen at all times - REALLY mean this now summer is here.
  • No or little booze. Wine or Champagne or whatever at the weekend is allowed if you want it
  • Walking is important, a small amount every day if possible. 30 mins if you can
  • Lots of water, aim for 2 litres a day
  • Apply body cream as often as possible
  • Use hand cream
  • Go to bed early, by 10.30pm if pos
  • Eat healthily
  • Be happy

The idea is that we all feel happier, healthier and glow with the good food, sleep, exercise, water and lack of sun damage.

Some people are doing India and Neris's Idiot Proof Diet (Atkins, more or less), others are doing Slimy World, others are just being as healthy as possible.

Welcome everyone, have a good week.

rebel - sounds like a fab trip. Hope you feel healthier very soon.

Just on my way to bed (look! before 10pm!!), but needed to drop in and say thanks you all VERY much for sympathetic tales of woe. Duchess, the red coat story just had me laughing out loud at the computer screen (particularly enjoyed your rendering of the faces of the congregation). DS is absolutely fine today, thank the lord; I am still deep in protective denial and refusing to revisit the image in my mind until much time has passed and many many more of my brain cells (pref the memory ones) have been obliterated by booze. Perhaps I could have that as my bootcamp plan b .
