Eat fruit every day

I just made a mango shake of my own experimentation.
It tastes pretty good. I used one peeled mango, 1 cup fat free milk, half a container of unsweetened vanilla yogurt, and some pineapple/coconut juice.

Well I been eating fruit everyday for about 3 months now, and normally have some fruit for breakfast. As I don’t think I’m going to stop having some fruit for breakfast anytime soon I think I’m finished on this goal.

= grapes

= apple

= Banana

TIP: Try keepin a bag of apples in the fridge. Get one of those apple slicer/corers. For breakfast, even on the go, I can grab an apple, slice and core it in seconds and grab a slice of string cheese. The protein helps the sugar from the apple stick around for good energy and its healthy and i can eat it in the car.

Question: Does drinking 100% juice count as a fruit serving? I got those little bottles of apple juice, pure juice, I can throw it in my lunchbox and drink it with lunch. I think I’m getting a serving of fruit like this…Am I?

I like veggies better than fruit and I have a hard time eating my daily fruit allowance. What is it supposed to be anyway, five? I’ve been eating a lot healthier lately and really cutting down on meat – this is good because I also eat more vegetables (i.e., I made burritos last week with bell peppers, cilantro, fresh homemade salsa, avocado, cheese, and homemade refried beans – but no meat).
But fruit is hard for me, so I’m trying to eat at least one serving per day. I had been in a bit of a slump until yesterday, when I ate a peach and a strawberry-raspberry smoothie as well as strawberry jam on my bagel and a slice of raspberry cake (topped with raspberries). Eating fruit mixed with sugar and/or marsala wine isn’t the healthiest serving, but it’s gotta count for something. And the raspberry marsala cake is to die for.

this is healthy..and i want to do it…

It’s so important and I know it affects how good I can feel on a daily basis,as well as long term health benefits….so why am I still struggling with it.I look at the well stocked fruit bowl and think…I’ll have an apple later.I’m probably managing to have fresh fruit every 2nd or 3rd day.This week I’m determined to eat more.

I had an apple.I cut it up first so it wasn’t such a challenge.Also had lovely fruit crumble but that doesn’t really count does it?
