Day 3 – Fruits and Veggies

Today I decided to read about the nutrients in different fruits amd vegetables. The website, http://http://www.fruitsandveggiesmorematters.org, is a great website to learn all things fruit and veggies! You really learn the importance of eating from the rainbow.

Here is my progress on Friday. It was a bit of a challenge to eat healthy at lunch because I had an off-site lunch meeting. And they had dark chocolate raspberry brownies to tempt me… but I resisted the urge 🙂

Breakfast: 1 egg + 1 egg white + 1/4 avocado (1/4 fruit) + 1/2 cup diced tomatoes and onions (1/2 vegetable)

Lunch: 2 cups salad mix (1 vegetable) + 3 oz baked salmon + 1 tsp balsamic vinaigrette + 1/4 cup black bean, corn amd tomato salad (1/4 vegetable)
