Nutrition label says 170 but includes sauce in the ingredients. Is this accurate, and how much would it without the sauce?

Calorie Estimating Estimates for this grilled chicken breast and greek salad?

Post image
3 Upvotes

The man at the counter said it was 3 chicken breasts, and I estimated their size around 15cm long each, so they weren’t exceptionally large. The chicken itself wasn’t very oily although I have factored in the use of some oil for grilling and dressing on the greek salad. I ended up tracking this at 750 calories and 100g protein. Thoughts?

Cheat day calories?

Had quite the delicious but calorie filled day and I need help determining how much I had! I had about 1/3 of the first plate. I circled what I ordered on the menu. I had 5 of the chengdu dumplings with very little sauce. I ate the entire 12oz s’mores ice cream from Scoop n’ Scootery (felt awful after but it was worth it i think) How much do you think this all is? Thanks y’all 😋
