    I'm not a dietician but sounds a bit strange to me.
    I eat it all the time and I lost 2 stones

    I was also told about the diet where all you eat was chocolate and all you drank was beer and wine. Some times when things don't make sense don't listen :huh:

    Not unless she knows something very specific and unusual about your body that we don't know.

    You can eat all the fruit you want; just log it (don't count it as a free food.) I love most fruits and can easily lose weight including it in my day.

    Sounds like it's time to find a new dietician. Fruit can be a very healthy part of your diet, and you should eat the fruits you enjoy, as long as you're not allergic and they fit into your macros.

    Well, I'm 56 pounds down from my highest weight, and 53 of those 56 pounds has come off since July of 2013. I eat fruit every day, sometimes 1 or 2 servings, sometimes closer to 5 or 6 servings. It hasn't caused me any problems at all, and it helps me not feel deprived.

    Are you sure it wasn't a nutritionist? Not a mistake many dietitians would make.

    Here is a good article to read http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/11/12/the-best-way-to-eat-fruit_n_2114888.html

    Fruit is really good for you, it has lots of antioxidants and vitamins. I would find a new "dietician". Do they have any qualifications?

    That sentence doesn't even make sense grammatically.

    If you have some medical problems that made the doctor tell you so, you should listen to your dietician. There are conditions in which an individuals has digestion problems when eating fruits and so on.

    But if you are a healthy person, there are no reasson not to eat fruits. It depends when you eat them.
    For example I am quite a healthy person, but I only can eat 1-2 servings of fruit a day, always between meals, because I get terrible gasses and get bloathed.
    A good dietician will also tell you this, because fruits start to ferment in your stomach if they are on top of other undigested foods.
    But there are also people that eat fruits just before a meal and don't have any problem.
