Hi Sarah, i've read that celery has about 10 calories per stalk and believe it does burn more calories in it's digestion than it provides. It's fairly negligable though unfortunately.

There's a good article here (http://www.snopes.com/food/ingredient/celery.asp) that discusses this question. Unfortunately it's not going to do much to help lose you weight but as the article points out, at least by eating celery you're not eating something else full of calories!
