    Bananas are loaded with sugar. That's why the calories are so high. Berries, cantaloupe and honeydew are my fruits of choice. Their calorie and carb count is much lower.

    However, bananas pack a good bunch of benefits into those calories. I'm diabetic though, so I try to avoid them.

    fruit are much higher in sugar compared to veggies, makes them have a lot more calories! but a 100 cal banana makes an excellent morning snack :)
