5 A day starch versus 5 A day fruit and veggies

Well today was indeed a challenge. I seem to be having trouble getting my 5 A day fruit and veggies consumed. It seems a lot easier to reduce the starch servings versus the discipline of increasing my fruits and veggies. My results for today, 2 servings of starch and 2 servings of fruits and veggies. Not a very good report card for today. This just highlights how hard it is to do this consistently. I am being very focused on the starch at least, but until I ramp up the other part of the equation, I will not have very good nutrition, and this is ultimately not sustainable.

No much good news to report on the exercise front either, no stretching or walking today. My excuse, I got distracted. Not a very good excuse since it was a beautiful day today, I could have easily walked for 30 minutes. I would have felt better fulfilling my commitment to myslef and be further along in breaking my cycle of shear laziness. What is the penalty?

Tomorrow, I will need to make up my lost 30 minutes today. SO then I must do at least 60 minutes. My take is that I better do that in the morning to make sure that this becomes more of a priority than everything else that I am working on. I think that is the crux of the issue right there. Until we personally decide that our health is the most important thing we need to take care of, or certainly it is in the top three let's say, we will likely not sustain this commitment.

How are you doing? Has anyone decided to reduce their body fat by 5%? If so, how are you doing it? Any and all tricks of the trade are welcomed to just get us on a roll here. Obviously not very easy behaviors to change.
