Ahhh lmao now the penny drops so to speak, well if your eating a lot of bananas then you will be eating loadsa carbs. A banana is like a little multi purpose battery, the perfect fruit lol. Take a look at the info below.

Nutritional Value (per 100gm)

Energy 95 kcal
Fat 0.3g
Water 75.1g
Carbohydrate 23.2g
of which :
Starch 2.3g
Sugars 20.9g

I think if you are attempting to keep to the velocity diet as close as possible you need to rethink your banana intake if you are indeed eating "loads". They are loaded with carbs.

When i was originally on this diet you were hungry - i mean FOCK ME im hungry. You do this without food and stay on the specified liquids you have a hunger like ive never had before. All those people that have done this and said it was a walk in the park are basically talking thru there rear.

I am still on my own version of this diet, i have changed some of the shakes for food which me and the wife painstakingly spent hours on researching the nutritional values of the correct types of food and weight to proved a "shake" match and to provide enough variety to prolong this diet. Also upping the carbs to about 150grams a day has helped, 100 wasnt enough for me.

Put it this way 200grams of bananas and a protein shake would make a perfect post workout meal if you want to keep carbs and protein to 2:1.
