Thank you...thank you!! I know I have been super riding you about this meal diary and I am so happy you did it. Just glancing over it ( cuz I am at work...lol) I noticed you eat a very low amount of carbs and fill up on veggies and meat/fish/chicken.... I have a question of fruit; I now you once told me that I ate "too much" fruit and it could give me a sugar high which will eventually make me peckish...could you elaborate on fruit servings, the right amount to eat and if there are any to avoid?
Hey, sorry I'm just replying. Will it be ok to make that next week's Nutrition post?
I'd say 2 (max 3) portions of fruit a day.
Examples of 1 portion
- a banana
- an apple
- a handful of berries
- a handful or grapes
- an orange
etc
hi, how do you make the 0% yoghurt?
Too much fruit, is there anything like that?
printing!
thanks
