    Sure. Why wouldn't you count them, their calories count too!

    I make my own entries that do not include the sugar. That way, it does not count against my daily sugar intake. :-)

    Yes I count everything on here. I'm currently doing both (weight watchers and this site) for a month and I've noticed with counting all my foods on both sites at the same time is some days I have more points leftover than calories on here and MOST days I have more calories left over than points, depending on how much I exercise that day.

    Yes! "Negative calories" is a myth. A calorie is a calorie, no matter where it comes from. Plus tracking fruits/vegetables will help with your fiber and vitamin levels as well.

    I count them all.

    an orange can run you about 80 calories.

    I also count my multivitamins
    they are gummie vitamins and are 15 calories for 2 and I take 2 multi and 2 vitamin c = 40 cals

    FYI: You can save yourself 40 calories by just taking regular vitamins ;-)
