    You gotta avoid "cheats" like that. Even if its tempting to think that youll burn more calories eating those foods, all that will happen in the end is that youll sabotage your own weight loss. It also adds an unnecessary layer of complication to your diet. Just stick with the standard calorie counting, dont try to cheat it, it wont work!

    Yes, it contains carbs and sugar.

    Oh and calories.
  • You gotta count everything.

    Plus, eating fruits and veggies automatically makes you better than everyone ; )
  • 500 calories for a pineapple seems too high to me. I checked 2 other sites and came up with 78-83 calories per cup of raw diced pineapple. I have only been able to get 3 cups out of a whole pineapple (once the edible fruit has been cut away) which works out to 234-249.
