I like to get the bananas when the store has them marked down for being ripe and ready to use. After cutting out any bad spots they are fantastic in the blender with a little water. Also I put some of the pieces in the freezer for banana ice cream. 4-6 sounds good to me, yum. :)

I love bananas as well... I have found that if you use them with mango, ice, 1-1 1/2 banana's and toss it all in a blender it make kinda what we all might know as a mango milkshake from any of you favorite Indian restaurants, minus all the milk and other added stuff... fresh mango has a very pleasant strong taste, so it mostly overpowers the banana, but the banana thickens the mix so it is more milkshake like... try it on a hot day for a tropical treat!!! It's one of my favorites!

Nope, I don't think it's too much. Apparently your body was craving them. It's been nothing for me to eat about 6 clementines (my darling) at one sitting. It's funny. At work I have a fruit basket and I'll grab and eat maybe 3 bananas, then two oranges and then a grapefruit. Folks are amazed. Yesterday I sat and ate an entire cantaloupe. My trash can looks like a compost bin! LOL! I say listen to your body. If you need the bananas, eat 'em. If you need the oranges, eat 'em. If you need the avocados, eat 'em. Back in the day I sure didn't question how many chips I was eating or how many roasted nuts I was eating or how many M&M's I was eating. Folks really question and nit pick this diet, which, don't get me wrong is okay, BUT you can't really overdo (too much) eating this way. Eat, eat, eat RAW!!!!

Occasionally I will have an entire ripe raw pineapple for lunch. When people see me do that they ask "how can you do that" ? I reply "its easy when you like pineapple" and smile. By the way pineapple and banana together make a great tasting smoothie.

Okay, I just posted a reply, and it didn't come up? I said if your body is telling you to eat bananas, then eat bananas. I've been known to eat two bunches in a day! No big deal.

I eat at least 3 bananas a day sometimes more. Lately I've been eating a whole watermelon for dinner. It's all good.

All this talk of banana and pineapple is making me hungry! This is my favorite green pina colada. Banana, pineapple, spinach, coconut, blend with ice and water. It's like Hawaii all over again!

And here I was, feeling guilty for nibbling at the pineapple I was cutting up for the kids when I wasn't sure whether or not I was hungry.
I love the relaxed yet passionate attitude towards food, towards eating what our bodies need.

too much bananas makes me constipated, but then again i have a tendency to get constipated easily. it could be diffferent after i fast and cleanse my colon. and as for the pineapple i cant really eat a whole one, even though i desperately want to, because my mouth gets burnt halfway into it.
