Best Answer

Yes, you can gain weight eating fruit! Carbohydrates almost always cause weight gain, especially when overeaten. Fruit contains a great deal of fructose, which should be eaten in moderation to avoid weight gain.

The good thing about fruit, is that it contains fiber which helps the body to avoid the sugar spike that you get from eating fiber-less sugary candy, etc.

If you are trying to lose weight, avoid eating more than one piece of fruit a day. Also, NEVER drink fruit juice. Fruit juice contains all of the fructose from the fruit without any of the fiber. You might as well drink sugary soda.
