I don't like fruit that much!

It occurred to me that I just don't like fruit that much. I mean, as a main part of my diet. Don't get me wrong - in the summer I'll eat cherries and only cherries for days when they come out and I love mangoes and pineapple and... But as a part of my daily menu, specifically using fruit as breakfast just doesn't work for me. In trying to follow The Plan and to lose weight, I've been trying to get in the 4-7 fruits per day and only allowing myself one cup of beans. Now, aside from the gas-from-beans issue which I'm trying to work out, I would be much happier and fuller if I ate two cups of beans per day and one or two fruits rather than the 4-7 fruits and one cup. And I'll still be getting the same number of calories - approximately 250 calories for a cup of beans or 3 pieces of fruit. If I let myself eat whatever I want, within ETL guidelines, I go for the beans and stews first, rather than the fruit. The only time I want fruit is after a meal, when a banana or a small bowl of cherry ice cream sounds good.

That's my new plan! Hopefully the gas issue works itself out though.
