I am.
Banana and strawberries with cereal for breakfast.
Dried fruit mixed in with porridge for lunch.
Salad bowl with veg at tea-time.
Are you getting your 5 a day?

No I'm not.
I was until April then I put an article from the Times in front of my wife which sort of trumped her ace.

So I eat healthily but not five a day.
Now she's read something else and started cutting out foods that she calls 'hyper-glycaemic' whatever they are.
So the bread has changed - and the biscuits. Pasta is cool - and so on.
Sigh.

I eat healthily but prob don't get 5 a day, I get annoyed with those who think they know telling me what i should and shouldn't eat!! Everyone is different shapes and sizes so how can it be 5 a day is fine for everyone? I think its all rubbish. Eat in moderation is what i say. I stop listening when the news mentions some new research stating eat this don't eat that. They didn't have 5 a day in WW2 when there was rationing and I am pretty certain people in UK were healthier then than now and a lot lighter!

Anyone who wants to try my "diet" for a week is welcome too it. I dont eat til lunchtime, sometimes skip lunch. I do have dinner every day, then at night time i eat ice + ice lollies (craving) and i cant forget to mention cake! I love cake.
On some days i will eat lunch. Like today because my sister made me it :lol:
I do love fruit + veg. Not many other people in my house does. Athrun loves it. My OH doesnt at all! :confused And his 2 sons will eat some.

Well, that may well be because they had to eat what they could grow, which was fruit and veg !!!!!!!!!!!!!
And they had to work a hell of a lot harder than most people do these days.
