Bananas: Bananas are usually eaten in excess when going to the gym and trying to lose weight. But it may not be the best since they’re high in calories, so have just one banana a day for a quick snack.
Tropical fruit: fruits like pineapples and mangoes contain higher amounts of sugar and calories than other fruits. So save them for special occasions and switch to apples in the meantime.
