    a) weigh bagel
    b) cut out hole
    c) reweight bagel
    d) new weigh divided by old weight = x%
    e) Subtract x% calories

    Not enough calories to make up for the time and effort of taking all of the delicious, chewy center out of the bagel.

    Step 1: hollow out bagel
    Step 2: send to food nutrition lab to have it analzyed
    Step 3: send it to another lab to have the first results verified
    Step 4: eat bagel.

    anything else will be completely wrong and will lead to massive weight gain and possibly even armageddon.

    Eat half a bagel instead?

    Or can you get mini bagels where you are? I used to have two mini bagels with whatever for lunch. I think bagels are more filling than other bread due to the high protein.

    I hate wasting food, so I would just either eat half or get the mini bagels instead. If you're making a sandwich and don't want to eat it open-faced, then just get the thin bagels.

    Another important question is...

    ...how many calories are you going to log for this work of hollowing out the bagel?

    I don't get the point of hollowing out a bagel? You're just eating crust? Might as well not eat it at all.

    I'm with Cliff. Either don't eat it at all or eat the whole thing and put a little extra work in at the gym.
