Re: Question about Suitable Fruits

[Guest guest]

Libby I am having trouble with fruit too, even strawberries which I

love - put mine in the blender the other day so I could consume them

easily and this weekend I'm going to make Strawberry soup. I would

think that orange/mandarin would be too fibrous/stringy and I would try

and avoid. also you might have trouble with skins, ie plums, peaches

etc. I stew mine a little with balsamic and sugar - goes down a

treat. Bananas are always a winner but not in the calorie or price

department at the moment. You must be fairly well restricted if this

is giving you trouble. Fruit in summer is so good - try berries - they

are usually OK.

Best to avoid fibrous fruits, so apple, banana and stone fruit seem to go well - especially when they are poached or coated in chocolate (LOL).

Having said that, I had no trouble with asparagus on Saturday night so who can figure this out?

what bothers/annoys me is the fact that here I am trying to be healthy and a run into problems - but can quite easily eat 1 slice of pizza with zlich problems - go figure!

What is the cosmos trying to tell me?

I'm tight right now but still enjoying asparagus thank goodness as I

love it. I snap off the ends - about 1/3 and chargrill then till

fairly soft and then woof them down but at the moment food is

difficult in general as I'm tense and concerned so not much is

sitting well and that bluddy reflux came back to bite me last night.

Libby...

Obesity is a dirty word for me today. But... unfortunately all us

bandits can eat a lot of crap and very little good food. The whole idea

is for us to eat only good food, and very little of it. We should be

easily satisfied with very small amounts, well, satisfied is probably

not the right word... I will never be satisfied with the small amounts

that I eat... I need to eat more for some odd reason.

The word is really meant to use is " FULL " We should be filled up with

good food and if we follow the rules and have the protien, followed by

the veges & fruit and then carbs, we should stay full for longer and

need less. Unfortunately, I like to eat, I like the feeling of chewing

etc.

I have to pop off to the bank. I hope this helps... nothing much is

really helping today.

Libby when I am full on protein and good solid food, even icecream

won't slip down my gullet. I actually threw one out last night as I

was in public and didn't think I could hold onto it after losing

dinner earlier. By the time I got home late I was a little peckish

but too scared to eat for fear of reflux. That happened anyway as I

(should say WE all) had a stressful day yesterday waiting on news.

Today isn't much better and right now I'm heading for nurturing with

a big mug of hot milky milo. I don't go near bread anymore and

eating lots of crackers but on the weekend I did a pizza making class

and do you think I was going to give away my efforts - I whipped off

the crusts, made the pizza very think, shared 1 slice with a

neighbour a the dog got a bit and I scoffed 2/3 - have no idea how

that happened, but no pain and no PBs. We just need to save the crap

food for last, at which time we don't have any room for it anyway -

good deterent.

I'm not sure what it is, but something definitely tightens.

Sometimes it is all just a big mystery....

You can eat tinned mandarin's and lots of other tinned fruit. Try the baby

food varities first.

Hi Libby

I have trouble with all fresh fruit so I buy the Goulburn Valley little

tubs of puree fruit, there is just enough in one of these little containers.
