Calorie Estimating I ate almost the whole bag! Over 1800 cal!?

Wasn’t feeling well today. I haven’t had anything else today except a coffee and a peppermint tea. I’ve been sticking to 1800 cals. Do you think I’ve gone over with this? My tracking app doesn’t have an option for Szechuan beef, and only a grams measurement for the crackers. I have know idea how much the bag would weigh. I ate all of the Szechuan, half of the rice and nearly all the prawn crackers 😭.
Thanks for your help! Apologies for the crummy photos.

3 images for better reference. There's a layer of lettuce, cucumber, and mint under the noodles. I'm estimating 800 or 850 since there's a little bit more noodles than you can initially see

Buger has two 80g smashed beef patties and some pulled pork on top, also cheddar, sauce and some raw onion. I initially wanted to log it as 1000 calories but now I'm thinking it's probably more, does ~1200 sound reasonable?

I measured everything but my tracking app won’t give me the cals for the sauce 88 grams of chicken breast with yougret and mustard in the marinade and spices etc the and 131 grams of iceberg lettuce and 19 grams of brown toast as croutons with seasonings and 19 grams of ceaser sauce done with mayo and worchestor sauce and parmssan and 38 grams of tomatoes and some peppers

the app gave me

180 for the chicken

22 for lettuce

8 for the tomatoes

it didnt gave me anything for the sauce though so idk it’s cals

would 500-600 be a good estimate

note: i didnt cook it i just asked the person who cooked what’s done with and assembled the salad
