5 A Day

Along with my new fancy exercise regime I am also trying out a new eating policy.

It's called 5 a day. :)

That's right 5 fruits and veggies.  I'm not exactly sure what FIVE means, like is it 5 cups or 5 portions?  I mean, I think fruits are fairly well packaged on their own -- one apple, one banana, a handful of berries.  Vegetables are more elusive, but I hope to do well with them too. 

The plan is one fruit with breakfast, a vegetable and a fruit at lunch, and 2 veggies at dinner.

So, what's your favorite fruits and veggies?  I really like red peppers and I've been doing well at eating it with the yummy jalapeno dip from Costco.  I figure that dip may very well take me through my 5 a day plan.  I love that stuff!

I have kind of been eating like crap for a few weeks, and my insides sure know it.  This may be tmi, but the whole constipation thing totally bugs me.  I am hoping this fiber, along with the exercise system reinvigorates me. :)

So, wanna do my 5 a day challenge? What's your favorite fruits and veggies?
