So I'm trying to figure out what the general consensus is on eating fruit while trying to lose weight. I've been eating very strict for the past couple of weeks and I'm down over 10 lbs so far. I'm always curious about how much fruit I need to eat for my size. I've been told two servings a day before lunch (preferrably berries because they are lower in sugar). Thoughts?

You can honestly eat fruit as much as you want if it fits into your macros and overall daily calorie goals.
I eat fruit everyday, usually just one serving, generally Apple's,berries, or bananas.
I have read, something similar about 2 servings a day when trying to cut although timing doesn't really matter. I mean maybe don't eat it right before bed but even then again if it fits into your calorie/macro goals doesn't matter.
If you like fruit, eat it, just make sure it fits.Heaviest: 350lbs, 45% BF
