Hi everyone,

I really want to eat healthy food and make this a lifestyle change rather than a diet BUT........

I don't actually like fruit and veg!!

I think this may have something to do with the texture of the fruit/veg.

Has anyone else had the same problem and have you managed to train yourself to like them. Any tips would be appreciated.

Thank you!!

Luv Kat

    Are you sure you hate ALL fruit and ALL veg?

    Maybe there's something you havn't tried yet that you might end up liking. :) You can also alter the cooking methods.

    I wasn't used to eating much fruit and veg, but I definitely trained myself to choose it over fatty food and I felt a lot better for it!

    My hubby really doesnt like fruit and veg. Especially veg. He has a smoothie everyday with a little broccoli and a carrott and some frozen berries. He doesn't really enjoy it but it gets some green stuff in the system and it's a start? He's never really eaten anything green before so I am so, so pleased;-)

    To say you don't like the texture of all fruits and vegetables is surprising, as there is a wide variety of textures in the class of foods and depending on how you prepare them, there can be an even wider array.

    How about you list your top 3 and least favorite 3 from each fruit and vegetable? Even if your favorite is "I don't hate this". It would give us something to work with.

    I was the same but I sucked it up and forced myself to eat them until my body adjusted to it and decided it liked them.
