Bananas and losing weight

Bananas may be one of the best fruits to eat when attempting to lose weight. They are full of nutrients for increased energy and vitality. Bananas are also low in calories and fat, plus they have a high water content and potassium levels. A diet high in potassium* foods and lower in sodium-loaded processed foods can help reduce water weight.

Have a banana before the workout. The sugar will give you the energy to get you through the workout and the potassium will keep you from cramping. Also bananas are a lot more easy on the stomach than citrus. Take protein post work out for the recovery.

Yep...very often..I'd eat them when my next main meal was further away in the day for the most part,and sometimes I'll also eat them before the workout.

Yeah,the glucose in the bananas works instantly,miracles,better than anything else.I'd make sure to account for the 120 calories it contains though.

Results:the best,especially when I combined it with protein.
