Ht. 5'2, Wt. 159 - When I was younger I always used to eat milk and bananas. One day a long time ago my mom and I went to her friends house and I was in the other room and overheard them talking and me and my obsesity of course. I remember hearing her friend say "Why is she so fat?" and blah blah it trailed on..."You know my friend used to have a daughter who was fat and she always ate milk and bananas, does SHE eat that too?" and I was thinking whoa...I always eat that, I love that. But I never knew it wasn't healthy for you! I always thought it was actually good since you know milk is good for youu protein and stronger bones and stuff and bananas well that's a fruit! I never ate milk and bananas from that day on. Sad story, eh? lol I just wanted to know why are milk and bananas so fattening?
I wrote this over...the first time I wrote it, it didn't show up! that never happened before... :( so I'm hoping this one goes through.

bananas do not have a lot of fat in them. a mediumk banana has .4 grams of fat.lol. not even a whole gram. plus they're better than apples- more fiber and believe it or not less calories...!

Actually, milk isn't that good for you. I know you always hear about milk being good for you, but the truth is that all the other crap in it makes it so your bones don't even absorb the calcium. I stopped drinking milk about 6 years ago, and I am way more healthy than I was then. Bananas are really good though, they just have a bunch of fat in them, so you probably shouldn't have more than one a day, but they have a lot of nutrients in them.

i've never heard of that, but milk isn't protein i don't think, but it is calcium...don't stop drinking milk if you like it. Trust me! I don't like milk and now I ca barely play sports at all because of my knees...I think I'm gonna go drink a glass of milk now. Plus, you've seen the commercials that milk is good for losing weight...are u sure that they didn't say that she lost weight by eating banannas and drinking milk?
