Blueberries with skyr for breakfast . Salad with what I could find in the garden-a few french beans, about 6 cherry tomatoes plus the last couple of inches of a cucumber and a grilled pepper and quinoa for lunch followed by a peach . A kiwi fruit mid afternoon then pasta with tomato sauce , sausage and grilled pepper for dinner followed by greengages. Not sure quite how many portions that is. I know I need to eat more veg and perhaps less fruit but I do like fruit.

My problem is that my portions aren't quite enough to count as "1 of my 5 a day" but today I have had:

1 tbsp raisins
1 tomato
2 mini cucumbers
1/2 snack-sized pack of grapes (about 10-15)
1 tbsp peas and sweetcorn
1/4 onion
1 sweet potato
1 tbsp kidney beans
1 snack-sized Apple

I feel a bit of a sea change now, having served up a veg-based dinner yesterday and been given praise for it, I'm now starting to look forward to how much veg I can stuff into my day. I'm also starting to feel physically better for eating more veg rather than carbs recently (so long Weetabix ), and seeing the contents of my fridge dwindling daily is very satisfying. Today has been a 4.5:2 day.

I don't get it, on the days I drink (usually 1/2 bottle of white wine) I barely eat! Vino is a fast track to a no-veg day for me
