Cantaloupe

Whenever I have cantaloupe, I ALWAYS end up eating the entire melon! Is cantaloupe really only around 300 calories for the whole melon?

    You would have to weigh it and log it to find the actual calories in the entire melon. Every melon will be different...

    When I was recovering from an eating disorder, cantaloupe was my hero haha. I would always eat 1/2 of the melon in the morning and 1/2 at night. I initially thought they were around 300 calories per melon too, but after I got a food scale, I saw that it ended up being more like 500 :/

    Nope. I had about 1/5-1/6 of a cantaloupe the other day and it ended up being 115 cals.

    Cantaloupe is one of my favorite melons. Like you, I could easily consume the whole thing.
