You're only allowd one fruit a day? That's not true. The food pyramid suggests 2 cups, which is more than 1 fruit. And besides, like already mentioned, they are negative calories, so they'll make you lose weight if anything. I've always been told to eat as many as you want.

Banana's, apples, just about any type of fruit, but some fruits don't fill you up that much, but bananas fill you up, they are my fave!:)

An average sized banana (not including skin) has a little under 100 calories. They're great for you as they're very high in potassium and rich in vitamin B6, folic acid, and soluble fiber. Plus they lower cholesteral and help cramps. Much more healthy than pretzels which aren't high in fat, but very high in sodium.
