Banana question please somebody answer

Anyways my question is are bananas bad if you are on a diet because of the thermogenic something or other. I konw bb1fit said something about it in the past but I just don't understand if they are good or bad. The last post that I cannot find was in response to vivavegas02.

If you make sure you stay within your calorie amounts and macronutrient ratios, you can lose weight and still have fruit. -------------- If you fall down seven times, get up eight.

My girlfiend was looking to lose a little bit of weight and she really likes bananas and she ate them because one can fill you up for a little while then she wouldn't eat anything else for awhile. I got her on the right track now though. Thanks ALL
