Hi Everyone!

I am just getting used to counting calories and was wondering if anyone counts their fruits and vegetables? I have been on Weight Watchers for 2 years and have lost 115lbs BUT the plan has grown old for me. I am used to NOT counting fruits and vegetables because Weight Watchers does not require it's members to do so.

A few people I've talked to who use MFP said they count their fruits but not vegetables.

    Congrats on your weight loss.

    And yes, I count fruits and veggies.

    It probably doesn't matter all that much. You can lose weight either way as long a you are in a calorie deficit.
  • Thankyou!!

    I think I'll give it a try and count all fruits and vegetables =) Also, my calories are set at 1640, is that too high?

    I lost my initial weight on WW and then moved to here too. It took me a bit to get used to counting fruits and veg, but you get used to it. It helped me really pay attention to what I was eating instead of mindlessly grabbing food... even if it is healthy food.
