Bananna's for lunch

[Mowbray]

if i eat as many bananna's for lunch as i like and eat a pasta meal for tea, will i lose weight?

[Kirki]

probably yes, but i am in no way a medical expert

Probably, because too many banana's will make you go to the loo. (Fast).

I thought bananas were higher in calories than any other fruit so if you ate as many as you liked surely you wouldn't lose weight. I seem to remember they are 100 cal per small banana.

I thought bananas were high in calories too� plus the thing with both these foods is that they release glucose quickly in your body and therefore you will get hungry again quickly, so you�ll be eating lots which will fill your stomach up and stretch it (that�s not a very scientific explanation � sorry � but I�m not good at explaining things well!). it would be better to eat something which releases glucose slowly, like wholegrain pasta, brown rice, chicken, veg or fish. Also, you should really aim to be getting as many different types of nutrients as possible, which is another reason to eat different varieties of fruit and veg. if you want to loose weight you could try following the GI diet (you�ll find loads of info on the net) but the best thing you could possibly do is cut out sugar. And drink loads of water!

You will lose weight only if the number of calories you take in (eat) is less than the number of calories your body uses.
