    could anyone hazard a guess as to how many calories would be in a Porterhouse Bar garlic pizza bread?

    its a 12" thin pizza base and loads of butter , Im trying to factor it in as a treat on my diet so need an approx amount of calories. Ive emailed the porterhouse company and messaged them on facebook asking , but no reply.

    Im guessing around 700 :eek:
    any other ideas ?

    It will be very very difficult to gauge but at a guess, i would imagine a whole lot more than 700, especially if there was loads of butter. A small 10gm of butter is about 100cals alone, never mind the cheese, base etc.

    No point in beating yourself up over it - terrible attitude to have.

    Draw a line and move on. One pizza will not a difference make, and let's face it, pizza's nice, you enjoyed it and had it. Now just go back to your regular eating. The world won't end!

    if it is 700-1000 calories it is a lot but could be worthwhile as a treat - Like its only 100-150 calories a day on average. If your overall diet is good it won't make much difference.

    What I'd do if ya wanna keep it is use it as your dinner the day you're having it. That way its only really gonna be an excess of 300-500 calories.

    Dont worry about it, as the others say, work under the rule that as long as you eat properly 85% of the time, you can indeed be bold and eat bad things sometimes - we are not hermits after all, there will always be work nights out, or family dinners and that kind of thing. You have to cut loose sometimes for your own sanity. To try and deny yourself that just wont work.

    With regard to the garlic pizza bread, the calories on commercial pizza and garlic bread are always given per 1/4 and even the best and most plain one is 300 per 1/4 - so very best case scenario your talking 1000 [add in meat and all the other things folks get on it, and the calories on pizza go through the roof]
