Is it better to make a smoothie from fruit or just eat them as they are?

    Fruit in either case isn't really particularly satiating IMO...fruit is just something I usually have as a quick snack or for desert, I really don't expect it to fill me up or keep me full. Personally, I don't really understand the "smoothie craze"...the only time I really ever have one is for recovery from a long ride or something...and it's a calorie bomb at about 900 calories.

    900 colories? How many ounces/grams serving or what the heck is in it to make it that much calories? I mean my typical 8 ounce serving smoothie runs at most 200 calories. And that's if I put something like yogurt in it.

    lol the smoothie i had last night for dessert came to 684 calories. It fills up 1/2 a nutribullet cup, a pathetic amount for the calories, but it is filling.
