You guys know I stay out of the diet postings because that is a painful subject and I have no inclination to seem judgmental.

however, I have statements followed by a question.

- Apples are good for you. They have the right kind of sugar. They have lots of fiber. They are an excellent snack food. Of fruits, they are one of the good ones and in my opinion maybe the best fruit

Was your post a slam at Zach or do you know something I don't?

What is wrong with eating apples as a diet snack?

I really want to know your reasoning.

edited to add:

BY the way, I once lost about 50 pounds in 8 weeks (Started at 6'3" 230 lbs. and came out at 180 lbs.) and ate everything I saw that I wanted and as much of it as I could shovel down.

I was in Army basic training. They have the perfect weight loss program. Feed you potatoes, Spaghetti, bread, starches and worse and peel the weight off of you. Of course, the first three weeks of basic, I wanted to throw up when I sat down with my plate in the mess hall since we had probably run - actually the "Airborne Trot" in those days 2-3 miles just before the meal. or we crawled out of the low crawl pit into the chow line.



Funny now.
