There are also a lot of cool places close by, if not right in Charlotte. The mountains are about 90 minutes to the northwest, and the closest beaches are about 2 or 3 hours to the southeast.Charleston, Savannah, Myrtle Beach, Hilton Head, Asheville, and Boone are all 4 hours or less. was just there briefly to visit Carowinds, but my impression is Charlotte is a thriving if generic city, with somewhat of a crime problem (some of the freeways are pitch black at night because thieves steal the copper wire).
Off the top of my head I knew it was about 50 calories per cup, but wasnât sure about the sugar. According to Calorie King there are 9.4g of sugar in 1 cup of watermelon: For reference, 1 cup of apple has 57 calories and 11.3 grams of sugar.
The glycemic index of watermelon is between 72 and 80. Values above 55 are considered high. However, watermelon has a low glycemic load, which according to Walter Willett, M.D., is a better measure of a foodâs effect on blood sugar. This is due to the high amount of water in watermelon. Indeed, the fruit is over 90 percent water, and since water is calorie free but filling, you are likely to become satisfied from a meal containing watermelon before you ingest too many calories or too much sugar to pose health risks.
