does anyone have any idea how many calories would be in a fruit cocktail, that is home made. It only has fruit which is mixed in the blender. I drink 2 -4 cups of these a day. I put one cup as about 110 calories, is that too little?
Do you think 4 cups is over doing it?
Thanks guys.

    They sound good and healthy, but what else are you eating? Your body needs protein and carbs too. Don't forget veggies!

    I would just go on line and see how many calories there are in each item you throw in the blender and then see how many cups you get out of your blended mass and divide the total number of calories by the number of cups you end up with and that should be your total score per drink.

    I think I might try that as well on the weekends for a snack instead of my gin and tonic :blushing:
