In a homemade pie, there are more calories in the crust because of the shortening. The industrial filling has probably more sugar but you should be on the safe side of you count half. 

Pull up a recipe for pumpkin pie ( 8, 10 or 12 inch) and add up the calories in all the ingredient filling... puree, evaporated milk, egg, brown sugar, etc. Then divide it by how many slices you cut the pie.  

I recipe for no crust pumpkin pie and a cal in it is 126 calories a slice 

THX everyone!! 💯👍🙋‍♀️ 

I usually just put in the whole piece and figure it's really not going to matter, I am eating pie so that's that. 

I have trouble all the time finding modified recipes. Hamburgers without buns is most common!! 

Try typing in “pumpkin pie filling” 

Made my own this year just so I could know the exact count. That is one of the hardest things about tracking. Get a taco salad but leave off the crunches and dressing, hamburger don’t eat the bun, pie not having the crust - its not just the calories but changes macros too. Now that you are to maintence, I tend to think like abbadabba just make in simple knowning the reality is healthier which will allow slight sloppiness in other areas (not over stressing about measurements). But why should I tell you? You have done so well and your stradegy will no doubt be wise. 

@sk...of course! silly me 🤦‍♀️ 

I do what sk suggested and I use the Libby's pie filling one figuring better to error on the side of more sugar, eggs, etc. do not confuse it with their plain canned pumpkin which has no sugar or eggs. Big difference. Or you can just count it as pie and overestimate for that big ol' spoonful of stuffing/dressing you forgot about. 

Try making a pumpkin pudding. Whipped cream and pumpkin filling. You can use Libby’s. Just mix and chill. 

There should be a nutritional label on the box 

Read the box and weigh it. Figure your calories from there. 

Well - how many pieces of pumkin pie are we talking about? If you are like me - then - you might as well include at least a quarter of the pie - to include those tiny thin slices that "are so small that they barely count" x 5 --- One pie and then it will be gone. Enjoy! Just enjoy it since it will gone in only a day or two. 

I found out - a Walmart or Safeway pumpkin pie .... 350 calories in 1/8 of a pie and there are 120 calories in the pie crust - so ----- 350 - 120 = 230 calories in one eighth of a store bought pumpkin pie. 

It is pretty easy CyrstalJo - you take the proportion of pi and divide that by 2 then multiple by the square root of the ratio of the fraction of time spent thinking about the pi. That should work 

And ... Do not forget to convert the answer into decimals and then round off to the nearest tenth.  

Jergens got me laughing.  

Just deduct from the content. If you ate 3/4 of the pie, then make your calorie total the 3/4 instead of the entire piece. You're never going to be spot-on unless you weigh your meals and make them all homemade.
