More Matters

The new campaign for fruits & veggies is "More Matters". This means that if you are only eating one serving of fruit each day, then you should aim for one more serving.

I don't know anyone who has ever gained weight from eating too many fruits and veggies - I mean, with a serving ranging from 25 calories for veggies and 60 calories for fruit, how bad can it be?

I'll admit - I am not a big fruit girl. I'll eat vegetables all day, but when it comes to fruit, I can go without.

Well today I made a pack with myself that I'm going to eat more fruit. And I did! I had a banana and an apple. They're both easy to carry with you, and for a girl like me who's always on the run, they fit the bill. I'll make sure to include a variety of other fruits in my diet, as each of them has different vitamins and minerals that my body needs. But in the mean time, I'm pretty proud of my accomplishment today - even a dietitian can have nutrition challenges...
