    I am an active WW member. But....I know all about calories in, calories out. That's why I'm here. I double-log....and when I get to 1200 calories, I stop, no matter how many points I have left. Now, if I feel like I am starving, I will eat a veggie or a fruit, but that only happened the first week, I'm in control now.

    I definitely count my fruit calories, but I try not to worry about my sugars. I'm not diabetic and 90% of my sugar comes from natural foods (like fruit) so I'm not going to let it stres me out!

    I log pretty much everything except Texas de Brazil days and I log those the day till going to Texas de Brazil. For those of you not familiar with that restaurant... http://texasdebrazil.com/location/fort-worth I flatly refuse to take a scale and deal with it on one of the 3 times a year I go there for birthdays and anniversaries.

    I gave up counting for Lent but when I do count my cals, yes. Fruit counts. Every little piece of fruit counts.

    I eat a lot of fruit and I do record it. Though, if fruit puts me over for calories in a day I don't worry too much.

    I don't count fruit and stuff like carrots. I'm a college student and I always want to snack while I eat and honestly I don't have the will power not to when I get hungry enough. It's my reward for snacking healthily :P
