Liquid Calories

Hi, I'm new to all this stuff but am doing well so far and keeping to below my 1800 / day etc.

I have just had half a Carton of Pure orange Juice that according to the label is 300 calories.

Do I count these on my daily MFP as tbh, it will be coming out of me again in 30 mins time?

Just wondered as it doesn't seem bad drinking something fruity and pure?

    There is nothing bad about drinking OJ. Yes, it counts towards your daily total. You do not pee out the calories.

    Everything counts -- or we wouldn't gain so much weight from drinking alcohol for that reasoning. ;)

    Always wondered about the Alcohol bit, especially as the sugar has gone and turned into the Alcohol. Oh well, back to water the rest of the day! :sad:
