    Yesterday: lettuce, celery, walnuts, apple, sultanas for lunch; poached cod, spuds, carrots, broccoli for dinner; orange and banana as snacks.
    Totals for yesterday: 4:3.
    I'm an adult and I can eat whatever I want whenever I want and I wish someone would take this power from me.

    Not good yesterday... no fruit, no veg, virtually no food.
    Unintentional fast day, I guess. Today will be better.

    See, if you don't eat it's not possible to get the quota. Basic maths :D

    Yesterday ended up being a 3:3 day for me, but my goodness my guts ached in response :o

    Today really hasn't been a salad day, and work has been hectic. However I've managed to keep up the veg intake:

    Breakfast - tomato (1) on toast, fruit smoothie (2). Lunch - veggie burger (3) with roasted peppers, garlic and tomato (4), aubergine, courgette and onion (7) and sweet potato (8).

    Out tonight, so who knows...

    A fruit heavy day as I was busy and fruit seems easier to eat as it usually comes prepared. Banana, Apple, Grapes, Orange Juice and Baked beans and Mushrooms for the veggies.
