All fruits are excellent, but go easy on bananas as they are high in sugars and avocados as they are high in oils. Both are very healthy if eaten sparingly while on a diet.

I love avocados and bananas and I have to disagree, they do not make you fat. Avocados have some of the healthy fat, much in the same way nuts, olive oil and oily fish should be included. If I do have avocado it is never sparingly and I am not large. I prefer to be physically active enough to burn off what I want to eat!
I think points are a rip off, I know they 'work' for some people but for how long? I am sure the points system is largely a marketing tool to sell the weighTWATchers food products.
