I always wondered how you folks counted calories when it wasn't written on the bag (so to speak).
What if I double egg dip and bread something I am deep frying? Does that change the calories from a lighter breading? What if I use panko crumbs one time and Italian crumbs the next, does that change the calories? It all seems so complicated.
That's my excuse anyway. Still, it would be curious to know sometime.
I estimate as best I can. For example, how much breading did you use to bread 6 chicken breasts? Divide that amount by 6. Used two eggs? Divide that by the number of servings. I figure as long as I make an effort to get close it's better than nothing. If you underestimate one time, you might overestimate the next. Just keeping track at all makes me think twice about having (another :p) cookie
I use the livestrong app, which makes it really easy to add partial servings.
