My boyfriend has just told me that he and his mother are going back to Weight Watchers, again! This is a regular thing that they do and have never stuck to it yet.

Although I had little faith in them I had to show my support, and said that I would get rid of all their cookie, candy and the like. Now I suffer from being underweight so a heap of it went home with me, and I still threw stacks away. No wonder they needed to go to Weight Watchers!

I really want them to succeed so offered to help them decide on what they were going to buy to have as snacks. I knew my boyfriend would be open to any suggestions but his mother is notoriously picky, but without any problems or arguments they both happily agreed to have fruit.

I personally love fruit, I think it’s great. They are extremely healthy and you can take them with you wherever you go. Let’s face it, that’s why most people eat junk food. They grab whatever is available, which is usually candy. But fruit can be just as handy.

A good tip to make sure that you eat plenty is to keep a bowl in a prominent place near a door so you will always see it on your way out and grab some.

I used to worry that the fruit would spoil, especially in the summer. To ensure we always had fruit handy, I had frozen fruits and juice in my freezer as well as plenty of dried fruits.

As there are so many varieties of fruit and different ways to eat it that there should never come a time when you are bored with it. Do as my boyfriend and his mother did, ditch the candy bars for fruits.

Getting out of the habit of eating candy will be tough at first but you will soon start to feel the difference in yourself that plenty of fresh fruit brings.
