Good fruit ideas?

[Babyphat11]

I've been craving watermelon so bad. Seriously yesterday I ate like 3 cups throughout the day. I know watermelon is like 10 carbs per cup So is there a good fruit I can snack on thats lower but eay to just cut up and eat when you want it?

If you like melon, how about cantaloupe? It's just as tasty with fewer carbs. I also LOVE berries--strawberries and raspberries especially. I will say that strawberries are "heartier" and last longer in the fridge than raspberries do.

An apple is a great snack with peanut butter. It's very sweet and satisfying, and eating it with that extra fat is very filling. Or, you can cut up a mixture like strawberries, blueberries, and nectarines and keep in a large bowl. Take out a serving, pour some heavy cream over the top, and it's a perfect treat.

I would stay away from bananas, as they're INCREDIBLY sugary.

Cantelope is good too, but not as good as watermelon I actually hated cantelope my entire life until this pregnancy, go figure.

Well all of a sudden I wanted strawberries. lol So I had my fiance get some on the way home, and I whipped up some heavy cream & splenda...why did I eat like 8 huge strawberries in like 5 minutes? lol Oh well, I guess its better I eat something good for me than a bag of chips or somethin. Baby seems to like the strawberries
