[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fruit in moderation is fine, even important, but stick to fruits with lots of fiber (like apples) and anti-inflammatory properties (like blueberries).  [b]Eating “high sugar water” fruit like watermelon, melons, and pomegranate can quickly lead to weight gain.[/b]

Here’s a good filling breakfast or evening snack (at least two hours before bed if really hungry) for weight loss:

3/4 cup (or more) of sugar-free, plain Greek yogurt
A half handful of crushed walnuts
A half handful of blueberries

For variety, in the mornings only (not near bedtime), when you need more energy, mix in a half-handful of a low-sugar, whole grain granola.  I like Wegman’s “Ancient Grain” mix with quinoa and amaranth.

This is a complete load of crap. No amount of fruit will make you gain weight. Stop this nonsense. Granola is calorie-packed and much wore for you than fruit. [/quote]
Sugar is sugar whether it is in soda, fruit juice, or fresh fruit.  Some fruits have more sugar than others.  And some fruits have more fiber than others to slow the digestion of sugar.

As sugar (glucose) moves into the bloodstream, your blood sugar level rises and you get more energy, but, as a side effect, unused energy is stored to fat.  We say consumption of excess carbs is bad for weight loss because the body converts carbs to sugar (glucose), and, if your level of activity doesn’t use the sugar, it gets srored to fat just as if you had had a soft drink (or fruit juice).[/quote]

Omg it’s the crazy “fruit is bad” lady. No, drinking sugar soda is most definitely not the same as fresh, whole fruit. Are you insane? Eating processed carbs that convert into sugar in your body is not the same as eating fruit. No one is getting fat on fruit. Just stop. You are insane. [/quote]
