Is there such a thing?

Because here is what I'm thinking...

This morning (late morning) I had a big bagel with cream cheese, and tomatoes on it and a coffee. I later went to a movie and had some candy at the theater. For dinner I went out to sushi and had edamame, at least 10 pieces of sushi rolls, and miso soup. I was really full when I got home, but I was really, really craving something sweet - specifically fruit. So I had a big bowl of mango, a big apple. blueberries, strawberries, and a few cinnamon crackers.

Now I'm really full...but I almost think I NEEDED that fruit. I am so used to having a lot of fruit each day and the fact that I hadn't had any today probably fueled my craving. You don't think this was too much food? or fruit? Do you? I don't like days when I feel like I've eaten a lot AND I haven't exercised at all. How could I have improved this day?

hi LS
i think....well, you didnt eat much through out the day and thats why you were craving food.
i hope youre ok, im a little worried reading over what you have eaten, knowing that things havent been too good in the past.
perhaps eating more regularly and proper meals will help
take care, come back to the "other board" Ive missed your posts!
chookie:)

Yes, there is such a thing as too much fruit. There is such a thing as too much of anything.
The usual recommened amount of fruit is 1-2 pieces daily.ou did have more than that but it's not a catastrophe. It can tax your liver and cause bloating so try to curtail your fruit cravings a bit.
I wouldn't have bagel with cream cheese too often but once in a while anything is OK. Live and enjoy.
The key to not gaining weight is portion control, not choice control. As long as you eat small portions of foods almost any food is OK. To stay on the healthy side make sure you get enough of the "good" foods such as lean proteins, complex carbs (whole grains, vegetables, etc) and healthy fats such as olive oil. Remember, moderation is the key. So enjoy your favorite foods without guilt as long as you do it on a small scale.
