Free McDougall Program: Fruits and vegetables
Even a vegetarian expert such as Dr Mcdougall does not encourage the unlimited consumption of fruits ( especially carrots and watermelon ).

Green and yellow vegetables are too low in calories to serve as the center of your meals, but can be added without restriction to your meals, particularly if you wish to lose more weight, faster. In general fruits should be limited to 3 servings a day. They are tasty, high in simple sugars and easy to over consume. The sugar in fruit is fructose, which causes triglycerides and cholesterol to rise too high in sensitive people. People with these concerns should limit fruits even more.

I suppose "sensitive people" refers to those who are diabetic or pre-diabetic
