I just want to know if they are healthy.
I know it's a strange question, but any general help is appreciated.

Fruit is actually beneficial when trying to lose weight. It is relatively low in calories and packed with fibre and water, meaning it fills you up easily. It also acts to trigger a 'fed' state in the body - meaning you suffer less of a metabolic slow down to dieting.
Generally, the higher fibre fruits like berries, apples and pears are the ones suggested for cutting. But other things like citrus (grapefruit, oranges), and even bananas (around workouts) can be included in limited amounts if your calories remain in check.
Look - really, in all seriousness you CAN just eat the damn banana's!! Don't worry about it! You are young and active. You are also not a few weeks away from competing in a contest! So, as long as you:myCATpowerlifts said:Ok thank you for all your help.
The friends I hang out with all workout/exercise and maintain a pretty healthy diet.
What you said about the bananna thing worried me though...I eat 1-2 a day as well as a couple of my friends, because they are so convenient as a quick snack.
Beats me??P-funk said:why is everyone worried about banana's? I friggin love them. I eat them when I am not dieting.
