    [Not in order by the way]... sauteed mushrooms, green peppers, onions, cabbage, steamed broccoli, boiled green beans, collard greens, raw carrots, and bean dip. Veggies are my crack.

    Yes! Tomato and baby spinach in an omelette for breakfast.
    Apple as a snack, a pear for a snack this afternoon.
    Lettuce, tomato and carrot in a salad with lunch.
    Tonight I have more carrot, onions, tomatoes and zucchini planned.

    I find keeping to my calorie goal easier with fruit and veggies, getting enough fibre I guess.

    I had some beans (mix of red and white) for lunch. Probably about 3/4 cup. I'm going out for dinner so I'm sure I'll have a salad and veggie side.

    Interesting. How could you eat only half a banana?? What happens to the other half?

    Had salad for lunch - bell peppers, golden raisins, Craisin, onion, and sun-dried tomatoes. Supper I had a side bowl of strawberries and banana. Having an apple for the evening snack.

    I've got 1 serving of strawberries left from the 4# I bought 10ish days ago.

    Backwards day (compared to my usual) yesterday:

    Breakfast was my usual dinner (vegetables were onions, eggplant, summer squash, and carrots, had a peach on the side, also had pork and corn).

    Lunch was big salad with mix of greens (including spinach and kale) and broccoli, among other things.

    Dinner was my usual breakfast smoothie (lately fruit and veg content is melon, peach, cucumber, kale and I'm trying different fresh herbs (anise-hyssop last night and this morning). On the side cherries, a fresh tomato, and some radishes.

    Later in the evening I had a plum.

    Tons of fruit lately -- I think I'm getting the "better eat it before it's gone" feeling, since I love summer fruits and by fall most of this will be replaced by apples, which aren't the same for me.

    Had a Cora's style fruit and yogurt bowl - Greek yogurt with an apple, golden raisins, Craisins, pecans, hemp seeds, a banana, and 181 grams of strawberries. I would've had granola too, but I'm saving for supper.

    I was bad yesterday. I only had some carrot sticks for snack and some carrot onion and celery cooked into my millet but that was only about 2 veggies all day.I was wondering why I was feeling a bit blah today.

    Double order of broccoli for lunch and chicken with a salad and side of cooked veggies for dinner. I will probably do an orange for snack.

    Yesterday I had beans, onions, carrots, garlic and peppers. Nothing yet today but I have a salmon salad with mixed greens, onions, celery and peppers waiting in the fridge for lunch. Not sure what dinner will be yet.

    Oops, forgot about the apple I had yesterday.

    I was planning on watermelon today, but when I cut it open it had gone bad.

    Boo! I'll have to head to the grocery store tomorrow.

    So, today will probably be limited to a Good Seed curried sweet potato patty (man, are the spices strong - probably won't buy this again), tomato soup, edamame and maybe some Brussels sprouts.

    That's me, too: Cherries, peaches, strawberries, blueberries, fresh figs - get them while they last! The potassium will settle back to normal come Halloween...
