1 bagel is the equevlent of 5 slices of bread. So your having like 5 servings of bread.That's a lot of carbs. It's fine every now and then, but really limit it down. And you might want to exercise more. Cream cheese is fatning, but if you use serving size, it wont be all that bad. and if you have them often, I would get low fat. And I would stick to a whole grain bagel while on a diet.

It's okay once in a while, the bagel you usually see in stores, the big round ones can contain up to 520 calories, so watch out =) Get a small bagel and low fat cream cheese to treat yourself every once in a while.

Bagels are a lot of carbs and cream cheese is very fattening if it's not the reduced fat kind. But, if you have it like once a week or something then you can definitely fit it into healthy eating. *Ray*Ray*

cream cheese can be fattening..but i noticed that in a serving size, theres like a ton lol i never use that much. so just using a thin layer would be better but there fine to have in moderation
