And deffinatly don't have the cookies hahaha
why not?
220 calories each and you need to have two, one just isn't enough. And you get 3 for the price of 2 so there's 660 calories before you know it!
still not answering my question... why not?
You're right 'why not'
In fact, why not have that McDonalds for lunch that I wanted, or the chocolates I was going to eat whilst watching the film. And the pizza, and fries, and cheese and fizzy drinks and hotdogs..
Straw man argument.
Nobody is suggesting having all of these things all at once.
But, sure, nothing wrong with any of them individually - in moderation as with anything else, including a subway cookie.
Of course there's nothing wrong with these things in moderation, but you're missing the whole point. The OP has asked for healthy sandwich ideas - what is wrong with a cookie? It's not a healthy sandwich idea!
If I asked for healthy McDonalds ideas, you would not say "Have the Chicken Wrap........ oh and the Big Mac with supersized fries as there's nothing wrong with that in moderation"!
Yes I know OP asked for sandwich ideas.
Was responding to the 'and definitely don't have the cookie' post
OP could have a sandwich and a cookie if she wants to - it's not a definite No.
Of course she could
It's a definite no if she wants it to be healthy though - a sandwich and a cookie is not a healthy meal
You can debate what the definition of healthy is if you want, but ultimately a foodstuff with virtually no nutritional benefit, hardly any protein, hardly any fibre, 5g of saturated fat, 18g of processed sugar, crammed with preservatives isn't healthy0 -

The lack of nutritional benefits of the cookies doesn't negate the benefits of the sandwich.0 -
I get wraps or 6 inch subs quite often. I usually get beef, tuna or chicken with old English cheese, all the veggies and no dressing. Comes in around 320-350 calories. I used to get ham but I'm only eating cage-free pork nowadays.
Would prefer to get no meat in my subs and add my own as their meats are processed, full of nitrates and high in sodium.
Look at the info on their website
0 -
One 200 gram 6" turkey sub, multi-grain bread, all veggies, mustard, no cheese = approx. 300 calories (at least in the Indian Subways; I suppose the portion sizes may differ in other parts of the world. Or not.)0
-
This perhaps isn't the healthiest but it's all I ever order :ohwell:
Italian cheese& herbs, tuna, toasted, onion, gherkins, cucumber, lettuce with sweet onion sauce.
:sad: now I want subway0 -

I disagree.
I'm not claiming subway cookies are particularly healthy but yes OP can be healthy and have a cookie.0 -
There has been a couple of times where my husband and I had a lot of running to do and we were hungry, but it was to late to fix dinner. We ended up at Subway because if your going to eat a fast food I have found it is 'healthier' then going to the other fast foods. At least I could control the fats and calories there. They have a list of the low fat items that you can order and they also have a list of items that they say you should not order if you are watching fats. This makes it pretty easy to order.0

I disagree.

That's not in question
But like I said, that's not the point of this thread
"What are some good HEALTHY sandwich ideas?"
Subtext: "I'm being careful what I eat so would like to know some sandwiches that have nutritional benefits and aren't considered as unhealthy"
"The chicken or turkey is good, but avoid the cookies"
Subtext "There are some sandwiches that are considered quite healthy, but avoid the cookies as they contain a lot of refined sugar, saturated fat, and are of little nutritional benefit"
I can't possibly see any benefit to the OP by saying that she can have a sandwich and a cookie. But if you think there is then fine, I will argue no more.
I will however avoid posting the question I was wondering about as to what are good healthy breakfast ideas.
Muesli and a Snickers bar is ok surely? I can be healthy and have a Snickers bar after all0 -

Apologies, not sure why I assumed a 'she'0 -
Seriously, why does EVERYTHING have to turn into a 'as long as it fits your macros it's healthy' discussion. Or is everyone really so obtuse that they don't understand what the OP asked?
Ok rant over.
OP, you can go to the subway website and 'customize' your food to get the calorie count.0 -

Yes - everybody can make a damned good guess as to what the OP means by healthy. It's just about what most people consider to be healthy. You know this as well but are choosing to ignore it.
Whilst your definition of healthy may be different, nearly everyone else's will be similar - and that includes Subway who give an indication of what they consider to be 'healthy' on their menus - as signified by the American Heart Certification symbol which meets their criteria for healthy meals0 -

Classifying foods as "healthy" or "unhealthy" is a rather simplistic approach and while it seems to be commonly used by those who are struggling to change their lives, you will see that many of us who have been successful stopped doing that. Even the elementary schools have taken to teaching kids about "sometimes foods" and "all the time foods." Here's one hint as to why focusing on macros works so well, if you're getting enough fiber in your diet and you're not taking a supplement, then you're eating your whole grains, fruits, and veggies.
Long story short, i you don't like hearing from us, too bad, but best of luck on your "journey" . . .0 -
I have to keep my sodium <2000 mg/day, so when I want Subway, this is what I get:
6" veggie on white, no cheese and no condiment
- the cheese is not bod for sodium and the condiments are okay if they would not put half a bottle on the sub.
I bring it home and load up on the low sodium Swiss cheese and salad dressing (weighed on my food scale TYVM
). I add the chips/crackers and whatever dessert I feel like. 0 -

I couldn't care less about what "most people" consider to be healthy. I care about results, hence why I like IIFYM.
If I'm eating a 3000 plus calorie a day diet, I couldn't give two ****s about the low calorie approach pushed by the American Heart Association's heart symbol.

The OP is clearly thinking about his diet, hence the request for healthy ideas
Why did you even respond if your only input is to say he can basically eat what he wants and don't listen to the advice of those trying to promote healthy eating?
The IIFYM approach still requires you to make the right choices when it comes to food - would it not have been more sensible advice to tell him which Subway meals will make it easier for him to meet his Macros? Cookies, processed meats, sugary drinks, fatty snacks, high fat sauces, high sodium breads, high fat cheeses - all available at Subway - all ok to eat - all will make IIFYM that much harder to achieve
Why would you chose to go down the "How cute for the rest of you" patronising route? To somehow underline your perceived superiority?0 -

Could you not just ask them to put on a tiny bit of sauce or mayo?

I could, but the dressing I have at home is lower in sodium than what they've got. Man, I miss pickles.0 -
I know it's not super convenient if you're on the run, standing in subway, etc, but their website will let you customize a sandwich -- you can pick your bread, meat, cheese (if desired), veggies & sauces and it will calculate for you the calories, fat content, carbs, etc.
If I'm craving subway, I'll play around on their website for a few mins and figure out exactly what I want and exactly how many calories it is. It's much easier for me to weigh my options when I can see plainly the exact count, rather than trying to add it in my head while in line (probably because I'm terrible at math and it gives me anxiety trying to add on the spot, haha)0 -

My own journey is fine. No problems at all thanks.
I read all that you wrote, and re-read some to see if I had missed anything. I saw some useful stuff but also a lot of contradictory stuff.
You said that it's unhealthy to classify foods as healthy or unhealthy - then go on to classify processed meat as unhealthy
You say that classifying foods as healthy or unhealthy is simplistic - then go on to endorse schools that classify foods as 'sometimes foods' and 'always foods' - equally simplistic
As it happens I agree with the IIFYM approach too - but I'm aware that there are foods that make this approach easy, and foods that make it more difficult - which is really the crux of the OPs original question0 -
Please, explain exactly how you know so much about the OP's personal macro settings to know exactly what foods will or won't fit into his meal plan.

That has been enough research to establish what does not constitute a good diet.
Too much processed meat
Too much refined sugar
Too much saturated fat
Too much sodium
I do not know what will fit in the OPs meal plan, it may be that eating half a dozen deep fired sticks of butter could fit - however we are going on what is likely. I'm sure your random assumption of what the OP means by 'healthy' would be pretty close even if you chose not to believe it
Try it - what do YOU think the OP meant be 'Healthy'? My guess would be low fat, low calories, low sodium - it's not exactly going out on a limb is it, considering that's what Subway themselves say it is0
