you kno whats cool we have the name name but its spelled diffrent!, anyways it can be okay as long if you dont eat to many because they have alot sugar in them! which you should kind avoid on diets!
Tip on diets: eat everything you would normally eat but cut it in half and replace the other half with veggies or fruits. exercise 30-60min a day and stretch befor cardio! worked for me lost 5 pounds!

Only if you eat the skin as well. My friend went on a diet where she ate 15 bananas a day for 4 weeks, skin as well. Now she weighs 8 stone. A dramatic loss of 2 stone. AMAZING.

It's definetly okay to eat them, you need a lot of fruits and vegetables while on a diet and their a great source of fiber and potassium! But keep in mind if your on a very low calorie diet.. bananas have over 100 calories in them!
Hope this helps =]

Yes, but you know bananas are a big source of potassium. Be careful not to eat them too much, high amounts of potassium can stop your heart, I'm pretty sure that's what the lethal injections are.
My grandma's doctor called her after a physical recently and told her not to eat any bananas for a while because her potassium level was too high.

Bananas are better than any snack food, but they're less beneficial than other fruit. I would suggest berries, especially, as they are excellent in providing you with vitamins and helping you maintain weight loss.

yes, just don't eat too many. Bananas are a good source of protein and all that stuff. You'll be fine

Yes, but as with any foods, make sure you know your calorie intake. Keep it to one banana a day and include it in your daily calorie limit. They are very nutritious.
