Hello and welcome to the forum Tjharrison :)

I would count the calories the same way I do with any other food. If I was having a fruit with peel, I would peel first and then weigh it, everything else gets weighed. I weigh my vegetables cooked not raw.

We have put a newbie pack together to help you navigate the forum, here is the link,

also please take a look at our Internet Security/privacy post here, especially as I think you are using your own name,

You are welcome. If you are following a calorie controlled healthy eating plan, then please make sure you use the NHS BMI calculator to work out your own personal calorie allowance. The one mistake so many people make, is to not eat enough :) The link to the BMI counter is in the Newbie Pack :)
