Calories in a Strawberry

For whatever reason I'm having hard time finding the answer....the stuff in the database is just odd.

The best I can find is that for 4 strawberries (whole), it's about 150 calories....that sound about right? I blend 4 strawberries, 1/2 banana and 1 scoop of vanilla whey protein for one hell of a delicious shake.

I'm just wondering about the calories, I'm seeing anywhere between like 60 and 150.

They seem to be just regular size strawberries.

I got the information from a quick search. Hope this helps.

Actually, I did read it. But you still asked for advice in some form. Even if that was just the calories in a strawberry. People have provided that, and based on how far off you were made further suggestions, entirely sensible ones at that, and you've just come back and told them that you know better than them.

and again I had already said no to the food scale yet people still insist. do I know better than them what works for me of course I do I have had success with what works for me I was looking for general information on approximations for one f****** strawberry. next thing you know I'm getting relationship advice in this thread

If he lifts, put out.

How do you know when an entry in the database is the "official" entry?

No * next to it.

I'm beginning to suspect that OP had a very bad experience with a food scale earlier in his life.

That's my best theory on his strong emotional reaction to the recommendations to use one.



OP, please show me on this doll where the food scale touched you.

I'm honestly surprised that someone who was that far off on estimating calorie counts for strawberries would be making progress without a scale, but if it's working...

If you're OVERestimating your intake by that much, then of course you will make progress without a scale.

MY concern for OP is that if he is so dramatically wrong calculating the cals in a freaking strawberry and so grossly over estimating calories , that his weight loss is largely attributed to UNDER eating due to over gestimations on cals ...and again this is WHY so many wise and helpful MFP'ers suggested a getting a food scale.

OP needs to learn to say THANK YOU when given AWESOME and HELPFUL advise !

Strawberry banana smoothies are delicious. Definitely get a digital food scale. One cup (152g) serving of strawberries - 49 calories, 12g carbs, 3g fiber, 1g protein.

I'm pretty sure it's elscay. :drinker:

LOL

First thing I thought when I read that post was, "no, it's alescay".

Wait! Are those organic strawberries? No? You ate non-organic strawberries and didn't weight them with a food scale?
Were you wearing blue socks and standing on one foot at the time?
Because obviously if you don't do everything just the exact same way the previous posters do, YOU'RE WRONG!!! :huh:


P.S. You should buy a scale. :laugh:
