[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have often quickly made a fruit smoothie in the morning.

Fat free Greek yogurt, frozen fruit, and coconut milk.

I plugged it into myfitnesspal today and realize that it has 50+ g of sugar.

Is there any difference from sugar from fruit vs sugar itself. For example is this smoothie any better than eating two donuts for breakfast?

I have a terrible sweet tooth and am trying to cut back on refined sugar and eat healthier. I am not sure though if I am just replacing sugar in form A with sugar in form B and not really being any healthier[/quote]

How much protein and how much fat?  50 grams is quite a few calories for only carbs in a meal.  [/quote]

The one from yesterday was greek yogurt, pineapple, banana and mango - along with coconut milk.
According to myfitness pal it had 489 calories, 90 g of carbs, 5g fat, 28g protein, 68g of sugar.

All I had for lunch was two hard boiled eggs so in some ways my smoothie was breakfast and part of lunch. I had chili for dinner. [/quote]
