Dates & weight

I have a slight obsession with dates because they are sooooooo yummy smiling smiley

I'm trying to lose some lbs....has anyone had issues with not being able to lose weight when eating dates?
.......I'm slightly brainwashed into thinking sugary fruits inhibit weight loss

Thanks!

Nope, dates will help you lose weight. You can eat as much as you want, in fact not eating enough will make you fat.

I just wrote my date guy, Yes, my date guy. He said this year in CA there was a bad season for dates, and until September to be warned about this, the condition of dates out there now.

But who cares I will eat organic super market dates. I love them.

Thanks Utopian Life! I figure I do enough that eating dates shouldn't make a difference, however I don't run miles by any means.
