I probably would not count a few tablespoons either. I'm not sure how many cals/gram glycerol yields but it may be similar to carbs. During a diet (or DNP), your liver will convert glycerol to glucose in a series of reactions.. I have to believe that fructose may give the same result.

A couple tablespoons adds up to ~150 cals (at least that's what the back of my "glycerol fuel" tells me)
2 tbsp = 30ml = 38g/glycerol
Over on this site:

It says glycerol contains 4.32 calories/G (Hanke, 1953)
While on DNP I'd just stick with fruit (certain kinds) and some glycerol......no need to go nuts with them though
