    You can get away with a lot of veggies but if you have a lot of weight to shed, it's a pretty good Idea to cut out the fruit (with the exception of apples) until you are approaching your goals.
    Log it and keep an eye on the calories as well as the carbs.

    Log a big bowl of parsnips and then decide.

    Veggies are not calorie dense, but fruits are. One banana for example will take 100 cal budget.

    Technically an avocado is a fruit, although most people do count it as a vegetable. And it is quite calorie dense. There are calorie dense vegetables. Even without being so, it's possible to eat a lot of them and still eat too many calories in your day.
