I have them all but eating 5 servings of fruit of veggies per day? Where am I going to fit in all of my cookies and ice cream???0 -
I am unhealthy in most any way I know of.0

How much is a serving of vegetables? 5 servings seems like a lot unless you are doubling up at each meal. I do the rest.
1 serving is 1/2 a cup of most veggies/fruit.... 1 cup if it's salad.
Not too much at all considering the calories in the servings - you could go over 5 servings/day and be fine!0 -
