Greetings biggrin

I try to eat one everyday.  They are filling and good for your heart.  They are binding but as long as you eat other fruits with it.  biggrin

Hi Dottie,

                   yes I love them but have frequently seen articles about them not being helpful if you are trying to lose weight, I wondered why?

Well I don't care Jay, I'm going to have one now, just what I feel like

There is some disagreement in the dieting world as to whether or not bananas have a place in a weight loss diet.  Some claim that bananas are too high in carbohydrates and cannot aid weight loss. Others suggest that bananas are a high nutritious food and in fact may help to lose and maintain a healthy weight.

if you enjoy them i would just eat one ...

And I am trying to do my Mr Motivator video here,

Knew that would make you laugh

Considering getting the Pilates for Dummies one as my sister is interested as well. Anyone know if it is any good? Thanks

Bananas are good for you - it may be that because they have more calories/carbs than other fruit they are considered bad on diet but there is more to 'dieting' than counting calories!

I followed the Slimming world green diet. You can eat as much fruit on this as you want, that includes bananas

Hi Taz

a medium Narna is about 90 cals they say..

i always eat Melon and Grapes daily, cant eat acidic fruit sets my bladder off and causes problems ..

which is ironic as we have orange trees and lemon trees 😢

and now a banana tree 😊 ' baby one' 

think diet and exercise got together ..

Jay it's hard enough trying to do it without the banana

I feel like I'm 80  PHEW

Don't know about that specific video/cd but pilates is a fantastic exercise, I love it when I can get the will power these days

Hi MrsMerm

i admire you doing  that.. I really do..

Trouble is when you stop exercising and you feel wobbly it is hard to get back into it..

i use to do 300 ab crunches in the morning and 300 at night ..

and now it hurts to do 100 ... 😧 with stopping for a while ..

i do the chair dips okay .... The rest can wait u til its cooler here 

i would love a good friend to go to yoga or something with in the same boat, oh i miss a good friend 😕

They do. As I have spondolytic changes in my neck I too have to be care ful with acidic fruit, but the one that causes a literal pain in the neck is, of all things, strawberries

19

Sounds worth giving the pilates a go then. Thanks

Hi Taz

i cant eat strawberries either 😕

raspberries and blueberries are okay .. They don't bother me
