    Do people not realize that large amounts of bananas could stop your heart and kill you? :noway:

    Hello! I just found on the web some crazy videos about eating as much bananas as you can for days (even weeks) in order to lose weight.

    I would really like to know if some of you did try a banana diet (only bananas!) and what happened.

    Thx! :)


    Definitely crazy.......like all these daft fads

    Too many bananas can kill you because it causes an imbalance of electrolytes from all the potassium. I think it is something like 7 bananas a day that could do it, which seems a decent amount to eat if that is all you are eating.

    The only time I have ever done a diet of only one "food" for any length of time were the bags of IV fluids I got after my brain surgery. NO. Just NO!

    Presuming you don't consume any sodium at all, perhaps...

    Wait.... OP, you've been on here for 3 years and actually asked that as a serious question? I thought for sure you were just funning with us.... :noway:

    I think a fruititarian diet is fine for those who want to do it.
    Some folks are happy with this lifestyle.

    I refuse to give up meat and caffeine. I did attempt for about 3 days before my head exploded from lack of caffeine. Not for me!

    Yes. All my success is attributable to that one weird trick.

    I would have to smother them in peanut butter. That wouldn't work for me.

    The one I wanted to post would land me a strike.

    I heard that only works if your main form of exercise is swinging from trees. :wink:

    I *think*, and I could be wrong, that the diet you're talking about is a gimmicky intro into eating a raw vegan diet. I don't think anyone could eat 30 bananas a day for any extended period of time. I think it's just the hook to get you started, and you actually eat more than just bananas.

    Am I the only one that likes bananas with sour cream. For me, sour cream fixes everything. Almost. And when sour cream doesn't work, butter usually does. :happy:
