If you look at a bottle of 100% lemon juice 1 teaspoon has 0 calories and a whole lemon has 17 calories so if you're really worried about that 17 calories when you finish the whole lemon add it. Otherwise don't worry about it at all :)

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR); is the number of calories you'd burn if you stayed in bed all day.
