Ah he had a hissy fit.. You're not allowed speak of his Mam unless its good!! Which is sweet.. I actually really like that about him.. He does look after his Mam :) He felt I was having a go so I just gave up.. I wasn't in form of arguing so I shut the car door n drove off..

We're starting our challenge today for a week.. I only read the comment this morning so was a little unprepared but have my bits of fruit with me and dinner planned is a stirfry so am on track..
You can count frozen veg in too.. its quite cheap and every bit as good.. Like if you had frozen brocolli and cauliflower, peas, potatoes.. There's 4 of your 7.. An apple, banana, and pear and there's your 7 :) (PS.. When money is really tight I buy shop own brand tinned fruit so i can still have it without the risk of having it go off too soon and having to waste it... )

Aw ok,yea sometimes it's easier to say nothing and yup it is nice that Jonathan has a lot of respect for his Mum.
Good idea with the tinned fruit,I did that a little while ago but it was from the local shop so didn't get loads.Well I've had a banana with my breakfast so only 6 to go plus two hot waters and have started drinking my 750ml bottle of water.is 500mls one glass?
 
250mls is one glass :)

I could never do 7 F&V. I'm awful for F&V. I'm trying though lol...
 
I'm game for the 6 7 8 challenge!!

2 cups water done already today
4 bits of fruit

Bring it on!!!

Yea I tend to buy a tin of something with almost every shop.. that way when money is tight, its there.. And its long life so keeps for a long time :)
And Sarah answered yer Q.. A glass is usually 250ml.. They used to recommend 8 glasses/2 litres per day.. But its been reduced now to 1.5ltrs so it works out at 250ml per glass :)

Abso-fricken-lutely.. Pebs (other thread leader :D) will be pleased :)
 
Good idea about buying a tin of something each week,I tend to stock up with toiletries which has come in handy with lack of money,maybe I should do that with tinned fruit,plus chopped tomatoes and beans,I will start doing that when OH's money comes through,thanks for the idea :0)
Hopefully I will be ok with water intake today then!

Yea I did have 3 tins just sitting there and used one for the pasta bol last night so it does come in handy to stock up plus shops own brand are so cheap as you say :0)
 
Frances!!! I have to say thank you to you..the last week and a bit I've been what I'd call lapse in the evenings..having ice cream,not much fruit and take or leave the yoghurt! But thinking about this challenge has made me think about how I've been and that really I was doing the fruit and yoghurt before the ice cream stepped in( though it will be on my menu at the weekend) ;0) so I guess it's giving me a wake up call!

Aww.. you're very welcome Daisy hun.. Glad I've copied the challene to here too.. I did question myself ebfore doing it.. really happy its spurred you on...
Tho I will say, OK so you'v replaced fruit n yogurt with ice-Cream some days, your diaries are still really good food days so you're still doing brilliantly.. But good to know I've helped in some way.. Nice to know I give a little back as all you on here are what keep me going..
So thank you in return to you and everyone else on here :) xxx
