Should I eat fruit

Yes. As much as you can. And veggies too. All kinds, all the time.

If you don't have a medical condition that requires you monitor your sugar then enjoy your fruit. If you eat less calories than your burn, you will lose weight regardless. The first couple weeks usually are the biggest losses and then it slows down from there. Just make sure you are measuring and weighing your food and log everything.

If you feel like opening up your diary perhaps we could offer suggestions.

Under 'my home' go under settings, then diary settings. At the bottom is the diary share options. If you make it public, everyone can look and aid you.

And to add on, are you carefully weighing everything? If you're using eyeball estimates, you could be eating more than you realize.

Please don't feel you have to exclude any group! Calories in vs calories out is what really matters. Unless as previously mentioned you have a health condition, then do as your doctor recommends. Best of luck to you!

If you're weightloss has stalled it's unlikely to be the fruit that's doing it. There are a few medical conditions that seem to respond better to a low carb diet, but for the majority of people it won't matter.

These are my terribly generic tips for stalls:

1. If it's been less than 3 weeks or so, don't sweat it! Normal fluctuations happen and unfortunately sometimes we stall for a week or two even when we're doing everything right. Give your body some time to catch up with the changes you're making.

2. If you aren't already, be sure that you're logging everything. Sometimes people forget about things like veggies, drinks, cooking oils, and condiments. For some people these can add up to enough to halt your weight loss progress.

3. Consider buying a food scale if you don't already have one. They're about $10-$20 dollars in the US and easily found at places like Amazon, Target, and Walmart. Measuring cups and spoons are great, but they do come with some degree of inaccuracy. A food scale will be more accurate, and for some people it makes a big difference.

4. Logging accurately also means choosing accurate entries in the database. There are a lot of user-entered entries that are off. Double-check that you're using good entries and/or using the recipe builder instead of someone else's homemade entries.

5. Recalculate your goals if you haven't lately. As you lose weight your body requires fewer calories to run. Be sure you update your goals every ten pounds or so.

6. If you're eating back your exercise calories and you're relying on gym machine readouts or MFP's estimates, it might be best to eat back just 50-75% of those. Certain activities tend to be overestimated. If you're using an HRM or activity tracker, it might be a good idea to look into their accuracy and be sure that yours is calibrated properly.

7. If you're taking any cheat days that go over your calorie limits, it might be best to cut them out for a few weeks and see what happens. Some people go way over their calorie needs without realizing it when they don't track.

8. If you weigh yourself frequently, consider using a program like trendweight to even out the fluctuations. You could be losing weight but just don't see it because of the daily ups and downs.

9. Some people just burn fewer calories than the calculators predict. If you continue to have problems after 4-6 weeks, then it might be worth a trip to the doctor or a registered dietitian who can give you more specific advice.

I eat a lot of fruit and I don't have issues. I do measure all of my fruit!
