Are fruits killing my diet?

I would check the other things your eating because a lot of packaged foods have loads of sugar in them, but I would not cut fruit out of your diet.

I don't know anyone that got fat from eating too much fruit.

Ive been wondering the same thing, but on the Weight Watchers Flex Plan, all fruits and vegetables are 0 points. I still add it into my calorie count for the day just so i know how much I am eating, but as long as I am in my calorie count, i try not to count the sugar from the fruit unless I would be over by a ridiculous amount.

It's true that fruits do have high levels of sugar, especially bananas, but there is nothing wrong with eating a reasonable amount of fruit. I have lost 70 lbs. and - not even exaggerating - eat up to 7 fruits a day. Sure, vegetables may be better, and I would recommend for veggies than fruits, but fruits are an excellent source of nutrients and you can still lose weight eating plenty of them.

Tips:
- eat fruits alone, not with a meal. Try to eat fruits 30 min before a meal or alone during a snack time, not with carbs and proteins.
- apples are great - they are low-carb and one of the best fruits for you
- higher carb fruits are great to eat alone for breakfast - bananas, plums, pears, grapes
- grapefruit is an excellent detox fruit, very low calorie, and may aid your metabolism.
- Watery fruits such as melons help digestion and have some carbs for energy

Hope this helped!

Well it depends on what fruits you are taking in because there are some fruits that are very high in sugar that can make you gain weight like crazy but some of them are also good for you because they are easy to digest, and they are healthy for you.

When it comes to the paleo diet(which I am currently on), you are allowed to eat fruits because they are important to your daily diet. Also they have anti-oxidants which are helping you to stay younger and recover from all bad toxins.

My numbers seem to say so.
I don't usually eat sweets (cookies, cakes, etc), but I love my fruit. I eat a banana at least once a day, an apple every other day and blueberries and strawberries everyday. I really hate the idea of removing my fruits in order to manage my sugar intake, but I'm not sure what else to cut?

Someone told me last week that fruits are not necessarily good for you because of the sweets. What?

I'm not really trying to lose, just maintain with my goal weight being my highest weight of the weak.

Am I going to have to eliminate some of my favorite fruits as I get older?

The only thing I would take away is the banana.

Just watch your sugar, berries are lower in sugar so that's good, bananas are high in carbs, but just 1 a day is fine, and apples are high in sugar but again just 1 every other day isn't bad at all.
I'd say the banana and apples are fine, just be careful with the portion of the berries because it is really easy to just eat tons and tons and then that will be a lot of calories and sugar, it is possible to eat too much healthy food and gain weight.

I agree that it's not the natural sugars in fruit that's stalling you but the white refined sugar in some of your snacks. I wholeheartedly agree with ditching all those prepackaged foods and enjoying your fruit with some good fats, nuts and greek yogurt are great additions. I have also noticed time and time again that even a small amount of any non dairy creamer in my coffee brings my weight loss to a screeching halt. I have begun using 2% foamed milk, a 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract and splenda to taste in my coffee and I still maintain loss with that (and it feels like a delicious treat!).

I looked over again, and yeah.....you're not eating that much fruit...why would you think of all things it's the fruit that's kiling your diet?

You eat a lot of "diet foods" WW foods, reduced fat, no sugar, all this stuff seems like it would be better, but it's not, it's better to have the whole version of things and just a smaller portion because then you get the full range of nutrients, healthy fats, etc. They have to add something to take something out, and it's not good stuff they add.

Also you eat a lot of ready made foods like asian spring rolls and noodles and stuff like that, and also like "fast" foods like skyline chili and panera, that stuff isn't good. You should be making these foods not getting the easy unhealthy version, It's not all about calories, you will lose weight to a point just based on calories, but it will stop eventually, and you won't be healthy. of course once in a while eating fast food or ready made foods is fine, just not as much as it seems you do. And if you're the kind of person that needs a sweet every day (like me) make something like cupcakes or something where you can control what goes in, the portion, etc. and eat one a day, or have a little bit of dark chocolate, or something like this. Just because you can have 3 WW cakes for the same calories as 1 regular cake doesn't mean it'll be better for you.

I noticed almost every day you're over on something which means you're also under on something, it's all about balance, except since you haven't changed your goals on here, I would sugest way more protein, the protein limits on here should be you minimum, you should go over that every day.

if you want the dried fruits like rasins and crasins buy the natural versions with no sugar added.

The sugar in fruit is not usually worth worrying about. (Unless you have a specific medical condition, like diabetes.) Many of us do not track sugar because the sugar in healthy foods, like fruit, can be misleading. Look at the sugar in other foods (not fruit or vegetables) or sugar added to processed fruit (like in syrups). I quit tracking sugar, and I don't worry if I'm under on carbohydrates. I track fiber. But fruit and fruit smoothies are a key part of what helped me get started, and they were critical to my success so far.
