5 vegerables and 2 fruit a day

Unfortunately, not any more. I know how healthy they are and need to make those necessary changes! My appetite sucks lately! Ugh.

It's really hard to eat that much. That's 2 and a half cups of vegetables and about 2 cups of fruit. Doesn't leave much room for ice cream and potato chips, does it?

I do try, but don't eat nearly as many vegetables as I should.

Sadly, I dont. I try but I dont eat that much food in a day. Id just be eatting veggies and fruits. Although, I do eat an assortment of fruits and veggies I just dont eat enough. I think it all depends on the person, size, and type some need more than others.

In my home country they say have 5 portions a day and it can be a mixture of fruit and vegetables. Fruit juice, fresh, frozen and tinned all count. I have had plenty of grapefruit juice today. At lunch time I had a salad with cucumber, carrot and cauliflower. Then I had some strawberries. I will have my dinner soon and I plan to eat some raspberries. What I eat varies through the week.

Yes I do, I usually eat alot of fruits! I usually drink at least one smoothie a day so it's easy to eat my recommanded portion of fruit!
