Yes, fruit is good for us!

Avocadoes, olives, green peppers, zucchini, cucumber, eggplant - all of these are 'officially' fruits: edible parts of a plant containing seeds. So if people think we're not healthy because we don't eat fruit - we DO! And we can tell 'em so!

By the way, I agree with you that entirely changing the way we eat is the key to low-carbing success - for me, anyway. I have the odd low-carb pancake with sugar-free syrup and don't worry about it, but now that I've lost the habit, I'll do this just every couple of weeks or so, if that. I've recently started eating brocolli for breakfast!
