    Veggies - I only post one or two I have with each meal/snack unless it is something I know has a lot of salt/fat/calories like avocados or olives. Most veggies are 15 calories or less. If I have eaten 1800 calories logged that day, I am not going to beat myself up for not posting ALL my veggies.

    Fruit - I am diabetic and can only allow myself a certain amount of sugar a day. I do prefer this to be natural sugars that are found in fruit, however, a single banana is 19 grams a sugar. Though, I find the nutrition value of a banana worth adding it to my daily intake, other fruits, I have to pick and choose if I want to have the added sugar or no.
    P.S. In the summer, I DO eat a lot of crenshaw fruit. It has protein :D
