    Thanks for starting this thread, i guess that is the whole point of the group. I did not get 5 as I was travelling... but i did eat raspberries. They must be in season, so good!

    Yum!

    Yesterday I had a whole bunch of celery and carrot sticks, and steamed veggies with dinner. I think I got four or five serves overall. :smile:

    I've been eating 5 serves of veg fairly consistently. I try to make it the main part of at least one meal (so, veg with a 'side' of meat etc, rather than meat with a side of veg).
