We hate breaking the news to new post ops that their chocolate banana peanut butter protein shakes are killing their weight loss. Carbs are even more confusing when we add fruit to the basket already containing donuts and spinach.
Everyone knows that fruit is a healthy food right up there with vegetables, right? Yes, BUT it depends on which fruit and where you are in your weight loss. If your one year Honeymoon window is closing, you don’t want to be eating little banana slice sandwiches with peanut butter and raisins! That would be a bad thing.
Never Run Back to What Broke You …
Fruit has vitamins, minerals, and fiber but some of it is very high in carbohydrates. Keep track of all your carbs. Keep an eye on portion size and don’t eat canned fruit in syrup.
The goal of carb restriction is to force the body to burn stored fat. This involves eliminating the foods highest in carbohydrates: candy, soda, potatoes, macaroni, rice, crackers, chips, pasta and bread. Learn to live without them and change the way you choose food. Don’t moderate the bad choices back into your life.
Best Shortcut: Don’t add a banana to your protein drink if you’re trying to lose weight. Save this for maintenance stage.
