will a banana a day prevent me from losing weight?

Answer 1

I don't see why it would.

Answer 2

No, as long as you aren't eating more calories than you burn. I lost 40 lbs, and I swear I had a banana a day ( in my cereal). And have kept that weight off for 2 years now.

Just note that bananas are one of the higher fruits and do contain a lot of sugar, so maybe cutt down to every second day or make sure you don't eat other really sugary stuff in conjuction with it.

The potassium you get in a banana is really really good for you as well.

Answer 3

As one of the previous respondents stated, one banana per day will do your diet more good than harm. Additionally, you can maximize the banana's contribution to your weigh-loss plan by eating it within a complex meal.

Try adding 1/2 chopped banana, 1 tbs. of nuts, and 1 half tsp. of cinnamon to a serving sized bowl of oatmeal. The result is one power packing breakfast that will be sure to keep you full until lunch.

If time is of the essence, trying blending 1 banana, 1 tbs. of peanut butter, 3 ice cubes, and 1 - 8oz. glass of regular or soy milk. This smoothie gives you balanced energy and plenty of muscle building protein.

Answer 4

The banana is really good for diet, it has between 80-85 calories. I used to eat banana when I was dieting before, and it didn't affect my diet at all!
