Are you getting enough?

My OH failed today, the first time one of us has done so since starting this challenge, when he listed what he had eaten he insisted that 'Lots of Cider' counts as one of his five a day

Yesterday was a busy day, lots of coffee and driving.
I had raspberries (and banana) and um, surely there must be more?
Nope, that's about it. 0:1 .

I'm finding this thread really motivating

Breakfast - peach (1), lunch tomato, avocado, mung beans, courgette, radishes (5)

Breakfast - porridge with stewed apple, then toast
Lunch - salad (all home-grown:)) of 3 types of lettuce, chickweed, tomatoes, chives. Some "genuine" type sauerkraut and I had canned salmon and cold baked potato with nooch (aka nutritional yeast). Followed by lassi and half a banana.
Dinner - think I might do some roasted veggies (aubergine, cauliflower, onion, garlic), hummus and a grain of some description. Followed by fruit (probably an apple).

Another pretty disasterous day. Not at home so wine and not a great deal more.

Today was a good day, and I feel better for it!

Lunch was a salad - lettuce, tomato, spring onion, cucumber, grated carrot, sweetcorn, pine nuts, vinaigrette, followed by an orange.

Dinner was an omelette with kale, carrots and spuds, followed by raspberries and banana.

7:3.

ETA: oops, I've counted the banana, so it's 7:2.

Managed to add sweetcorn (6) and various mixed veg in chilli (aduki beans, aubergine, onion, carrot, celery, pepper and spinach) (7).

May be trying not to think too hard about this today - with lunch being whatever I fancy from what's on sale at community event I'm planning on going to. Hopefully it should be fine - as it's turning into quite a foodie little sorta thing:)

Waiting for books to come through from Amazon currently - having read about Dr A. McDougall's dietary programme elsewhere on MSE Old Style threads. Gather that's basically vegan - minus nuts and seeds:eek: - but think that might be an idea to try it possibly for a couple of months (ie just long enough to get shot of being size label 14:eek: - ie size 16 then in "real money"! - and the acid reflux that has been a problem for a while). Well - it looks like it includes plenty of vegetables and pulses....

Congratulations on your weight loss :j

I'm managing just 1 portion a day, 1/2 a portion of tinned peaches and 1/2 a portion of veg in a small cup of vegetable and lentil soup.
