Little help counting callories

Saken

Hey guys me and a friend of mine are chatting about how many callories has each thing
He said:

Uhm. Well yesterday for lunch I had half a chicken sandwich, a tomato and banana pepper salad with half a tablespoon of olive oil, and a little trail mix. About 380 calories.

I disagree with him about the 380 calories as it would be a bit more than that, i would say it's about 600cals, but i need a second opinion
what do you guys think?
Cheers

I would say the chicken sandwich and trail mix alone were about that...if the sandwich was dry and no cheese either... I would guess between 400-500....

I'm sorry, when you said you wanted to chat about weight loss and fitness I thought you meant you wanted to chat, not tell me I don't know what I'm talking about or what I'm eating. And then bring it onto the forum without telling me prior.

I have nothing to prove, and am now going to ignore this. But my lunch was 380 calories. I counted and measured, and I know what it is I ate.

Wish you the best.

Oh, and by the way. I'm a female.

I'd say let her worry about what she's eating, and you worry about what you're eating. It could easily be 380 calories or 600 calories depending on the type / amount of mayo used, how much trail mix, etc.

......not to mention the fact that *HE* has already lost the amount of weight *YOU* are working to lose..... I'm sure *HE* knows what he's talking about.

It's even worse that it was MSN chat dragged onto MFP boards..... have some class, and you will do fine here. *smile* Don't.... and people will get defensive and protective.
