    Yellow pepper, orange pepper, tomato, cucumber, dark leafy greens, red cabbage and avocado today. It will probably be the same all week. I don't know why I keep getting excited to post my vegetables and one fruit I eat (avocado).

    @arditarose You're good on Veg. Have you tried Grapefruit or Banana for fruit?

    I prefer not to eat fruit. Considering it does not fill me up, I don't consider to be very low calorie or fit my way of eating. I like berries once in awhile. Bananas are great but I will almost never choose to eat one. I have had maybe 2 in the past year.

    You can make smoothies or just run your vegetables through a juicer. Trust me - the first option is better!!

    Today? Nothing. Hiked up to about 8000ft above sea level with the kids, and meats and cheese seemed to fit the bill for the day. Light and lots of fuel. Love the Rockies.

    Maybe I'll eat nuts later.

    Yesterday was a heavy fruit day, no veggies. Planned on a huge serving of veggies with dinner, but got home very late and well, the plan changed to a bowl of cereal...

    Just had some fresh corn on the cob. Thank you @lemurcat12 for the inspiration. I tried microwaving them for the first time. Spectacular results. 3.5 minutes in the microwave for two of them, then let them cool a bit before dehusking. The husk is more pliable and comes off easily. Much less mess in general.

    I had my usual salad - lettuce, bell peppers, Craisin, golden raisins, sun-dried tomatoes, and onions - with the addition of 4 strawberries and a side of cantaloupe.

    It's gonna suck when October comes.

    Pretty close to my 7 servings today. My usual avocado and tomato with breakfast, corn on the cob at lunch, raw carrots for snack, and mixed greens with more tomato & avocado with supper.

    I'm another one that doesn't really eat fruit but I love vegetables.

    Once I year I buy a watermelon and scarf it in two days though.

    My husband makes fun of me a lot because I apparently eat vegetables "like fruit" and it looks weird. I do stuff like take whole bell peppers or cucumbers out of the fridge and eat them whole like I would an apple. I ate about a pound of cucumber like that yesterday sitting in front of the TV. I think I just like the cold watery-ness in summer especially.

    I'm about to make my dinner. I have 600 calories left. I'm thinking my normal chicken avocado salad on a bed of greens and veggies.
    Veggies will be: tomato, cucumber, bell pepper, zucchini, onion, carrot. Maybe some corn. (I have a couple ears I have to use up). I'm starving tonight!!!
