It was delicious but half of it in one meal will not serve you too well.
Each bread has 300gm flour and 100 gm of sourdough starter culture. Collectively, this amounts to about 1,200 calories.
My wife and I make about 6-8 servings from one bread. Of course, there are many other items in any given meal to keep it nutritionally balanced as well as tasty and interesting. Fresh vegetables are the one thing that are common in most of our meals.
I tend to start my meal with fresh vegetables (no salad dressing, only lemon or lime juice). It helps to partly fill our stomachs with items that are low calorie and even if they have some sugar and complex carbohydrates (such as carrots), they are with a large volume of undigestible fibers.
