Mistake Seven
Overdosing on fruits
Just because they’re rich in fiber, antioxidants and other good stuff, it doesn’t mean they’re low in calories. Fruits like oranges, grapes and mangoes are very high in sugar. Ultimately, the numbers still add up! A raw green smoothie works better.
Keep tabs on how much you’re eating. Limit yourself to no more than four servings of fruits a day. One serving is equal to a small apple, a wedge of papaya or a medium banana. If you’re having lunch at noon and dinner at 6pm, then you probably don’t need to have a muesli bar in between.
