Satiety also has to be taken into account

An avocado is full of healthy fat and will give you a lot more energy than a sugary apple

High carb foods tend to make you hungrier. I guess it all depends on the individual but I consider most sweet fruits about on par with candy when it comes to nutritional value.

If you are talking about an overall healthy eating plan, I agree with you, but at the end of the day, more calories are going to put the weight on you.

One apple=95 calories. One avo=360 calories.

This is why I do weight watchers. The program is designed for you to eat whatever you want as long as you eat 5 servings of fruit and vegetables, drink 6 cups of water per day, eat 2 servings of healthy oils and stay under your point totals.

So I can have an apple for 0 points or an avocado for 9. Sure it's good for me, but I won't lose weight eating many of them.

We are somewhat on the same page, but this thread is about weight loss, not healthy fat and which foods are better for you.
