I miss fruit

July 28, 2011 by Elaine

Fruit, glorious fruit, oh how I love you so.

..

You taste so juicy and sweet…

But, this week I wouldn’t know.

I chose not to eat you to aid in losing a few pounds.

So someone else I know gets to make those juicy smacking sounds. 

P.S. Fruit.  I miss you. See you next week! 🙂

    As I sit here eating blueberries and a banana, all I can say is you have much more willpower than I do.

    I could never give up fruit. Not even for a couple days. I loves me some fruit. And summer fruit is the BEST! You must have the will power of a superhero!

    LOVE the pics! Gorgeous!

    Love your pics, Elaine! I miss fruit, too, and especially juice in the morning. I miss my OJ! I hate how bad carbs are for me. BOO!

    I hear ya…I started watching what I eat this week too. But luckily for me, WW says its ok to eat some fruits in moderation. So I’m still enjoying a few fruits in with a lot of veggies! Good luck!

    I love fruit too much to ever give it up. 🙂 Are you going to BlogHer?

    I could never do it! counting and logging calories was better for me. That way I could eat anything, just in moderation.

    I just love the picture of the pear, it’s striking in its simplicity.

    I miss the fruit the most also. Oh, and the wine. The wine.

    Godspeed. I love fruit. How are you holding up??

    Your photos are beautiful!

    I need to start up with my calorie counting again. Now that the baby is 4 months old I don’t have any good excuse!

    Oh, I did the low/no carb diet after my freshman year in college when I’d gained the freshman 15 plus a few. It was so hard – I was in the worst mood I’ve even been in in my whole life! I hope you make it out of that first no-fruit phase quickly!

    You’ll have to let me know how this goes for my post-baby diet. Because I just don’t understand how avoiding something so healthy/fruity/good for you can help you lose? So confusing. I mean, I know there are sugars, but….?

    That is my biggest issue with low-carbing it! I can give up bread and the like, but the fruit kills me every time!
