4 Day Challenge
For the next 4 days i am challenging myself to eat 2 or more fruits.
I don't unconsciously choose fruit. I generally have a banana in my cereal or on toast, eat a few grapes (not enough for a serving). I need to therefore consciously choose to eat fruit and veg.
So taking one small step at a time.
I will check in later to report.
