Advice for the overweight

Totally agree, carbs after workout. I never worry about fat content. Almonds and hard boiled eggs are awesome for good fats. Fat does everything he just listed and helps in the absorption of vitamins. As he also said, don't think fruit juice is the same eating fruit, unless you squeeze your own, it's like soda with vitamins.

I would add kale to that list too.

Radar, if an individual is looking to really lose weight as fast as possible, wouldn't u avoid the fruit altogether due to sugar, as long as you get the vitamins u need in other food? I always thought of it as more you have to burn off. Am I wrong since it's natural sugars?

You are correct since it is natural sugar however too much of anything can be counter productive,i usually do my fruit intake around 30-40min before i train, also after a workout Your Body's Demand for nutrients is at an all time high after training so you have a window up to 45 minutes to feed, this is a perfect time to load up with a high protein shake.
