Fruits

Hi guys

There's many yummy recipes on the main forum, but there's not much talk about fruit.

How much fruit would you include in your daily intake (post-band) and what are the best fruits to eat?

I would miss my fruit if I had to give them up particuarly bananas...

Thanks

Peek - alot of people are atkins so they watch their carbs - I follow weight watcher eating plan - as I find it a well rounded balance eating plan that includes all the things that i like to eat.

I eat bananas - by themselves or cut up in my yogurt - I eat pears, peaches, apples, plums - (you gotta chew the skin really good or cut it off) the only fruit that has given me any problems are oranges and thats the stringy tissue arount the actual furit (don't know what you call it) but i just chew up the orange and then spit that striny stuff out.

I try to eat 2 different fruits (and five vegetables) per day.

Usually I will have some fruit for Breakfast - mixed berries on my Cereal or in yogurt, or a banana chopped up etc. And then another piece of fruit for an afternoon snack, perhaps with a few walnuts or something.

I eat 2 or 3 pieces of fruit a day, lately I've been eating nectarines, plums and grapes. I also have a couple of banana's a week - the potassium in them is helps if you suffer from fluid retention.

Phew! I was beginning to think that people didn't eat much fruit. I love my fruit particularly during the summer and would find it hard if I had to do without. Thanks everyone.
