Tofurky and Daiya cheese sandwich

should it be about the same calories as a regular sandwich or a bit below?
I add:
avocados, mushrooms, lettuce and tomato to it.

If any one knows the exact calories and everything can you tell me so I can put it in? I have that for breakfast pretty much every day and it's a huge addiction!
Thank you!

    there really is no such thing as a regular sandwich, the best thing to do would be to each morning log all your ingredients as separate ingredients, not just as a sandwich, unless you want to create a recipe but even then it may change in calorie count each day depending how much you put of something on it.

    So like if I made a sandwich I would log 2 slices of bread, a few slices of tofurkey, weigh out my avocado and tomatoes and if I used veganaise or something, so you would look at my diary and you would see ALL those ingredients listed, not just a veggie sandwich.

    You can even save the meal if you're certain you're eating the same thing each day.

    Does that make sense?

    Yes it does! That sounds good! But I'm not the one who makes it so I need to ask what other ingredients (if there are any) of what's in there. Thanks!

    oh it's from a restaurant or something? EEP! that's hard, when you're not cooking.

    nah, my mom makes it for me. But she never tells me if she puts something secret in there to add flavor or not. But since we're on this site together I think she'll tell me now
