So true. Greens have A, C and K in abundance (as well as some B vitamins and minerals) and nutritional yeast has basically all the other vitamins covered, so fruit isn't really "necessary" if you play your carbs right. But I may continue to eat bananas before workouts for the quick energy and for the potassium. Still trying to figure out if I can handle the carbos from it and still lose weight, though. I do intend to (hopefully) start eating more fruit after I increase my carbos again. I had a small banana today before working out and it tasted really sweet!
