    I always have a banana 1/2 hour before a workout, it definately helps stop stomach cramps and hunger. I have been loosing weight slowly and steadily and bananas are very much part of this healthy eating. I have definately still a lot of belly fat to loose however but I think thats just a mummy thing nothing to do with bananas?

    I love bananas, I grew up on them. Doubt I will ever stop eating them.

    I now have the banana song stuck in my head though >.<

    It amazes me that people try and pass off bananas as being unhealthy. My guess is it's probably because they are one of the higher calorie fruits (a medium one will set you back about 100 cals), a probably the 25 or so grams of carbs, due to the common diet trend of 'carbs are the enemy'. But no one food gives you belly fat. Too much of any food causes fat, in general.

    Yea!

    I don't eat every day. And, I do not eat more than 1-2 per day when I do have them on hand. But I do like them and I feel that they are part of a healthy diet.

    I love bananas and try to fit them into my diet on a daily basis. I find that they really aid in hunger pains

    Bananas are great! Their use is almost unlimited and can supress sugar binges. They have some protein and lots of fiber. I limit them to one a day.

    I think there is some confusion in this thread. The "controversy" was never over the healthiness of bananas (they are great!) Its over eye contact during consumption of the fruit.

    Typically they're not my favorite use of 100 calories.. so I have them occasionally but it's definitely not a weekly thing.
