When eating fruits stops your weight loss

Your weight loss goals may not be achieved if you eat more calories from fruits exceeding what your body needs. Too much of anything is bad. Even good things like fruits should be eaten in moderation. For example medium size gala apple has approximately 80 calories, a medium size orange has 80 calories while a large size banana has 125 calorie.

If you eat 3 apples, that’s a whole 240 calories. So if you consume three apples, an orange and one large banana in a day you will obtain approximately 445 calories. If you continue to eat your meals without considering fruits as a source of calories you will find it very difficult to lose weight.

Infact you will increse your weight and belly fat too. Your exercise efforts will not be effective because you are eating more than you are losing.

It is generally taken that apples and many other fruits have fewer calories, fat and sodium than other foods. They also have certain vitamins, minerals and fiber. Although they are a good a between meal snack.

Not all fruits can be eaten to promote weight loss. A bowl of bananas will 3 large bananas and 2 apples will give you 535 calories.

Remember that bananas have high glycemic index and may cause you to have increased levels of insulin and probably belly fat. If you eat three servings of this magnitude in a day you will have taken in 1605 calories.

It will not be possible for you to eat several servings without consuming a hefty number of calories that will cause an increase in weight and belly fat.

There are several reasons why you should eat fruits everyday. For example apples have high water content. The water along with the fibre in the apple makes you feel satisfied.

You will not retain water because apples have low levels of sodium. Fruits will therefore not cause you to accumulate excess water which counts as weight gain..

Certain fruits like water melon, pineapples and avocados are more likely to cause you to gain weight than others. These need to be eaten in moderation.

Finally eat fruits for good health but eat them in moderation if you really want to lose weight.
