Default Fruits

Just out of curiosity, how often do many of you eat fruits? I am trying to get a grasp on how much/how often for me.

For example. in a week's time, I may have two apples, one grapefruit and a handful of grapes. The apples are cut in halves, same for grapefruits. That way, I only have a small portion for lunch.

In the summertime, I was nuts for Strawberries & blueberries & melons. Since the seasons change, I did.

Default Re: Fruits

BERRIES BERRIES BERRIES .. I love 'em and you can't find a better nutritional snack!!

I don't do bananas cuz they are a trigger for me (I used to love 'em!) I also eat Georgia peaches (YUMMY!), canteloupe, honeydew and occasionally fresh pineapple.

Default Re: Fruits

I eat berries about once every couple of weeks when they go on sale. I was never a big fruit person. the other fruit (maybe it's a veggie?) i eat alot is rhubarb. I love it!

Default Re: Fruits

I eat fruit all the time but not as just a piece of friut. the key is to find what works for you as we are each different genetically so our chemical make up while similar is different. watermelon is a trigger for me.

Default Re: Fruits

I stick mostly with berries, but throw in peaches or grapes or melons occasionally. I love fresh fruit, but I hate going to get it, so that naturally limits me

Since I'm not terribly good at making things with more than two ingredients and fruit by itself tends to trigger cravings, I put whipped cream (and sometimes nuts) on it.

Default Re: Fruits

Oh! Forgot about pears. Those I do eat by themselves and they don't seem to cause cravings.

P.S. punkett, if you put a "/" in your img tag, your ticker will show properly. Should look something like this (can't give you the whole code because the software will read it, not show it to you) weight.png[/img
