No, I barely hit one. Yesterday I didn’t have any. My diet is shocking.

Either I smash it or I eat none! Usually breakfast comes with berries or a banana. Then lunch has cucumber, apple and grapes and then dinner either has a side salad or vegetables. I might also snack on an clementine or two. I’m trying to reduce the fruit and up the veg due to the sugar.
Yes, I have grapes every day. Fermented and in liquid form, but hey, it all counts.
No, actually, my diet is very good. Today I had blueberries, strawberries and raspberries with greek yoghurt for breakfast, a tuna, beetroot, kale and tomato salad for lunch and we're having fajitas for dinner. I love fruit and veg. Just need to look at portion sizes as they are too large.

I think I need to start switching out my cornflakes for porridge with fruit. The cornflakes never fill me up, so I’m hunting for snacks by 10am, and if i switch to porridge and frozen berries then maybe that helps me get 1 of the 5 earlier i the day, and fill me up.
Some days yes. I recently bought myself a Nutri Bullet, so I make up for any days where I may not get the full 5 by making myself a smoothie.
As i do a lot of running, then yes I do eat my 5 a day. But it can be an effort at times
Conrnflakes have never filled me up either.I think I need to start switching out my cornflakes for porridge with fruit.

I sometimes stew either fresh fruit, or frozen and add this to Greek yoghurt with a handful of muesli, or nuts, to bulk it out a little more and keep me regular.
Surprisingly, it is quite a filling breakfast and will last me until lunchtime if I eat a decent portion of it. But that depends on whether I’m doing something physical like gardening, in which case I will have a banana mid to late morning.I do try . I will have fruit for breakfast , & salad for lunch or dinner.
I remember a dietitian telling me you'd get more nutrition by eating the cardboard box they come in than the cornflakes themselves.
I love raw spinach, broccoli, asparagus and mushrooms. I eat the first two by the bag, about 500g/260g a day.
hate fruit, can’t stand any of it. The closest I’d come to eating fruit is prunes
my diet is shocking, but I do love veg.
the best and ably thing I eat from the Christmas dinner in the sprouts, about 25 of them in one sitting
I do try. I’ll usually put 3 different ones in tea. So in lasagne I’ll put onions/toms/peppers then I’ll have a side salad with it with red onion, toms and cucumber. Or tonight we had a chicken casserole which had carrots onions and courgettes in and I did broccoli and cabbage on the side. I usually have a banana for breakfast and maybe a pear in the day too. Or avocado I eat quite a lot of , I like that in toast with red onion and tomatoes. I do eat tons of chocolate too 
so try and balance it out.

I don't specifically count it out. I think I do most days, but portion sizes are really difficult to gauge sometimes.
I'm a bit rubbish with fruit, but really good with veg.

Yeah, I’m more likely to succeed with 5 a day of veg and salad, but I’m a fussy person when it comes to fruit. Some make my gums itch (kiwi, i am looking at you
), so I tend to stick to the berries and grapes and apples. I cannot stand banana for the smell, taste or texture ( ) so I’ll try to have berries with porridge this week to see how I get on.Oh snap with bananasYeah, I’m more likely to succeed with 5 a day of veg and salad, but I’m a fussy person when it comes to fruit.

Even apples bug me, the skin gets stuck in my teeth I'm so bleeping tired I genuinely thought you were putting your mixed roasted winter veg in your tetley
I eat my 5 a day religiously - I really enjoy fruit and veggies so I find it easy to get them in during the week. I find it harder at the weekend, not because I go mad with unhealthy food but because my eating pattern goes out the window a bit so I try for 3 portions those days.
so I try for 3 portions those days.Omg that’s so funny! I’m usually very conscious of that and only use that word with my midland/northern friends but I must be very tired tooI'm so bleeping tired I genuinely thought you were putting your mixed roasted winter veg in your tetley
I of course mean in my dinner 
90% of the time I have more than my five a day, I’m a pescatarian and I love fresh vegetables. Not so keen on fruit though apart from melon or satsumas.
Today though it will be a struggle not to just eat all the beige rit. Over indulged on the fizzy grape juice last night

Im lucky if i eat 5 a week tbh
I eat more than my 5 a day 6 days a week, I struggle on Saturdays and only gave 2-3, I am really busy usually so miss lunch and have toast for breakfast rather than fruit and yoghurt. When I am at work I fruit and yoghurt for breakfast, eat salads for lunch and also an apple or satsumas etc, then veg with my evening meal
