Are banana's allowed on the diet. I've just completed day two and would like to know if they are legal.

Yes they are but generally its a 1/2 a banana constitutes one fruit serving. I have seen the banana debate on here as to size and I would rather stay out of that one when measuring bananas wink.gif

Enjoy

LOL, Dawn!!!

FWIW, my center director said 6" is a "small" banana and counts as a fruit serving. And, yes, I've measured. biggrin.gif (I give the extra to my son or hubby...)

In over 108 pounds lost, I have always had a banana every day, and I have never cut it in half or measured it (keep it down, ladies!). The only time I "tinker" with fruit is when it calls for 1/2 a fruit. Then, I just have one larger piece of fruit later in the day instead of 1-1/2 pieces.

I hope that helped.
