I'm not anywhere near goal, but I do eat about 1/4 cup of either strawberries, blackberries or raspberries daily. The carb count is so low on them, the fiber so high, and the vitamin and anti-oxidant content so good there's no reason not to eat them.

I will also occasionally have a tangerine which is about 6 net carbs. Again, a very worthy food to eat.

Peaches are one of my favorites, and I'm looking forward to summer for a little locally-grown peaches with cream. *slurps*

As for apples, does anyone have a problem with them affecting blood sugar? I know they're supposed to be low-glycemic, but we've had problems with them for years. And bananas are just plain poison to me.
