If I may...

Is that really your picture up there? You do NOT look fat. Certainly not enough to let it bother you.

To answer your question, no, an all fruit diet would be an extraordinarily -=B A D=- idea. If you want to gain more fat than ever before, eating nothing but fruit is the way to go.

Fruit sugar, or fructose, cannot be used by the body as stored muscle glycogen. This means the body will use it in one of 2 ways - it will immediately need to be burned as energy, or it will turn to fat. The liver is the only organ that possesses the enzyme needed for conversion of fructose as a glycogen store, meaning a fatty liver and fat around your waistline are all you're going to get.

Also, if you're only eating fruits, you're not getting complete proteins. A single protein breaks down into 20 amino acids, each of which have extremely important metabolic functions in the body, and 8 of which are essential ( which means you'll eventually die if you dont have them). Fats have literally thousands of functions in the body, and you're not getting those with fruits either. Many fats are essential (meaning you'll die without them too).

Please try to educate yourself on proper nutrition and health. Lord knows your school's P.E. class certainly isn't going to teach you anything. Click my name and see where I've listed points for losing weight the RIGHT way.

Hope that helps.
