Fruit

Ezwoldo

Right now I'm feeling a bit hard done by on all this as I eat alot of fruit and I'm being hit hard for it. I would quite happily eat 2 banan's but it works out more calories than a bar of chocolate, not really an insentive to eat them is it.



So I put it to you the MFP public to say yay or nay to me adding it in future but I will in return give up eating bars of chocolte for 40days.

it may total up to the same amount of calories...but a chocolate bar is full of crap. Bananas all the way!!

One thing I’m starting to learn is it’s not just the kcals that we should be thinking of but the nutritional value of things and long-term health so I say yey to the bananas !!!

I'm a fruit junky, but I experimented with eating a little bit less fruit and instead replacing those calories with lean proteins like chicken and tilapia. I've seen progress since doing that, but I don't reach for a chocolate bar as a replacement

It may be the same amount of calories, but bananas are ultimately a lot healthier than chocolate. However, you could have half of a bar of dark chocolate and a banana. You could even make frozen chocolate-covered bananas. That would allow you to have a healthy treat.

Any fruit is better than the fat and refined sugar you get in a bar of chocolate, with the possible exception of over 90% cocoa chocolate. Better that is unless you've eaten a lot of fruit recently and I'm the person behind you on that bike!
