Today I decided to be a rebel... and only have ONE satsuma...

....but it felt weird.... so I had a clementine with it.

My hubby reckons that because fruit has sugars, too much is fattening, this makes me wary of eating too much fruit and I find myself having a biscuit or 2 instead, crazy I know LOL,so you reckon I can eat loads of fruit instead of the biscuits and still lose weight?

I don't reckon, the experts at SW reckon that yes you eating lots of fruit and ditching the biscuits will make you lose weight!

I will have to try to eat more fruit instead of biscuits, the only thing is I don't always find fruit very satisfying when i am hungry, so i need to eat more than 1 piece of fruit at a time, chocolate seems more satisfying, In fact thinking about it several years ago I lost weight on Sw but at night I was in and out of the kitchen eating fruit, my husband reckoned I never stopped eating lol that is probably why he said fruit was bad for me.I will ignore him and buy a big bag of satsumas and munch those instead of biscuits and see if I can get rid of this weight.

With respect, is yoir husband a dietician or nutrtionist

There's sugar is biscuits as well btw!

Here's am example. My niece is a dwarf, and struggles to put on weight, as she's so little & is gastra tube feed. The nutrtionist said that my sister should try & feed hee aa many biscuits as she would eat (in her case about 1/2 fills her up!)

Without meaning any offence, how can anyone think biscuits are better for them than fruit?! Personally Id give ur hubby a slap!

Having said that I cant eat huge amounts of it cos it doesnt agree with me. 21 Satumas and id never be off the loo!

I've got a Tupperware box full of toasted porridge oats and tiny pinch sweetener to sprinkle over a bowl of oranges, I only use a teaspoon so I syn that at 1/2 probably too much I need to measure it, gives you a nice crunch and a little hit of carb!

How do you toast your oats?? Sounds like a good idea :0)

 

[emzhol]

I'm off to asda to buy some satsumas now

 

[hellcats]

I eat lot snad lots for fruit, especially melons and grapes and have lost weight so go enjoy your satsumas.

 

[hellcats]

And thanks girls now just had to have 3 satsumas. (i'm such a rebel)

Get a non stick frying pan nice and hot, add a cup of oats and toss until browned, watch them though as they can 'catch'.
Then repeat until you have a nice little tub full I stir in 1/2 tsp of sweetener to the last batch then give the whole tub a good shake.

I have no satsumas! I'll have to have an apple instead

 

[emmuk74]

I have run out of satsumas where are grapes on the allowables? Can I go for my life?

 

[jaylou]

All fruit is free!! Go for it

 

[emmuk74]

I will

 

[barbs1965]

I know all fruit is free, does that include bananas or do you find yourselves limiting them , just wondered how many everyone ate, I find them more satisfying than other fruits. sometimes I eat 2 a day and wondered if this could slow my weightloss down?

 

[jaylou]

No, I don't limit any fruit. I tend to have one or two bananas a day, but if I want more, I eat more.

A banana won't slow your weight loss down, the wrong foods will do that. The only thing I do is try to buy smaller bananas but only because big ones sometimes give me a bit of heartburn.

 

[Mariad85]

Not on SW. If we start being careful with things, we'd never eat anything.

Fruit is superfree. Fill your boots!

i did think of that! :-D im glad we can have as many as we want! my local shop outta stock till tmro :cry: xxx

I live this time of year as satsumas are about and are yummy. Is it just me or do they remind anybody else of christmas?! I think it's because I uses to get one in my stocking every year!
