    A friend of mine told me that on Weight Watchers they don't count fruit as long as it's fresh and not cooked?

    It's a different system. Weight Watchers general sets calories very low and expect people to eat fruit and veggies to make up for that huge deficit to create a more moderate one. In calorie counting, everything counts.

    Yes I do. That's kind of like saying I'm counting the bowl of hot chips but not the fat content as it's a vegetable ;)
