    Yesterday I had green beans, onions, garlic, carrots, romaine, tomatoes, more onions, cucumber and pickles. Today I've only had sugar snap peas.

    I like fruits and vegetables but they're really not a concern of mine. The amount of produce I eat now - by myself - would have fed a family of five when I was growing up.

    I've had broccoli, cauliflower, some carrot, and green beans. I usually do frozen mixed veggies. The mixes keep me entertained. Fruit...eh. Not interested.

    I count prunes as a fruit and have that almost every day. Friday I had fruit several times. Saturday I had vegetables with lunch and dinner, and prunes.

    Yesterday I ate 400g of leafy greens, two avocados, 300g of red cabbage, a whole yellow pepper, whole orange pepper, whole big tomato (this was all weighed too), 135g broccoli....Think that's it.

    I came home and had a little salad binge which is why I ate two avocados yesterday. Definitely was above maintenance.

    Yesterday had melon, a banana, spinach, cucumber, and fennel at breakfast, and a ton of vegetables (basically using things up) at lunch -- a stir fry with corn instead of rice (I know corn is not a vegetable, but a grain) with carrots, celery, onions, fennel, zucchini, summer squash, and eggplant, plus some pepperoncini. Cherries as a snack. Dinner basically just a salad plus a seafood spaghetti dish with tomatoes and shishito pepper (went out), so not as many veg there.

    Today's breakfast was melon, a plum, some blueberries, and lots of chard.

    Today I've eaten an apple for post-workout meal, a mix of a banana and 4 strawberries sliced up in a bowl with mini marshmallows (10 if you're counting) and 1T of chili lime balsamic reduction. I'd hoped the sweet/tart of the fruit would mitigate some of the OMG SPICY of the reduction, but nope. I love the reduction it's just spicier than I expected (other options were wine flavored & I hate wine in cooking). I know now to have half or a third of the reduction with anything.

    Today I ate strawberries, lemon, coconut oil, olives and olive oil, Romaine lettuce, tomato, and cauliflower. I also had walnuts. Technically nuts are fruits, although, we don't usually count them as fruits.

    Is this a serious question? Chicken counts as meat.
