Will Consuming Too Much Fruit Make You Fat?
Posted: 02-22-06 09:16am

I'm just wondering, would consuming a lot of fruit make you fat? And if so, how much is "too much?"

Too Much Friut Will Not Make You Fat...
Posted: 03-27-06 10:22am

So I understand your questions because I tend to eat alot of fruit...Especially at nighttime and im always wondering if too much of a good thing can be bad for you.....Its been my experience that too much fruit can not make you fat, per say, but too much of anything can be detrimental.......I believe fat can make you fat......If all your eating is fruit, your not going to get fat.
Try putting your fruit in the freezer, it will help you to eat it slower, perhaps consuming less of it.

this is what i've learned from my doctor: it is the sugar content that is more questionable in fruit than fat. Diets that are low carb, such as atkins, recommend limited intake of sugar and carb-laden foods, such as fruit. However, the sugar in fruit is natural and not refined or added. You would have to eat a ton of fruit for it to make you overweight.

It does depend on how much and what kind. Too much can also give you the runners too, like the poster said above too much of anything is not great, or something like that.
I remember being pregnant and I craved grapes and I constantly ate them, I kept on gaining a lot of weight and my my dr asked me what I have been craving, so I told him, grapes, and he told me to stop as they are very fattening.
Good luck!

Eating Fruits And Keeping My Figure
Posted: 06-08-06 08:32am

The thing with eating fruits will make you fat is half true, half false. Everything depends on how much you eat and what kind of fruits. It is well known the fact that some fruits are a disaster for the silhuette and other can really help you in keeping an organised diet. According to a diet I came across on an internet resource, http://www.Aboutzonediet.Org/ , you have to avoid bananas and dried fruits, but not because they are fat, but because of the quantity of sugar contained by them. The diet I was mentioning about is very famous those days and teach you to divide your platewith food in zones. I am really excited about it and i'm thinking to start one too.
