    I could put the hot pepper relish on anything and eat it... seriously, its my savior. I wish I could buy it from them by the jug!

    I like the BMT more than any sandwich, but since starting my new lifestyle, tend to get the chicken breast or sliced turkey to cut down on the fat.

    A new Subway is opening up any day that is less than a 5 minute walk from my office. (Better choice for lunch than the burger and taco joints up the road)

    I don't really like the way Subway sandwiches taste BUT I do like that I'm having a calorie-controlled lunch so sometimes I do choose Subway for a light lunch!

    I LOVE SUBWAY TOO!

    I'm gutted they've stopped doing their wraps and replaced it with a flatbread thing for calorie counters. The wraps were brilliant.

    I've been told on here that Subway, generally speaking, is high in their salt content. Depends what you're getting obviously.

    My favourite was ham and turkey wrap with all the salad and ranch sauce. OH MY GOD, droooooooooooool. xx

    I agree, the flatbread is terrible. I would much prefer a wrap instead of the bun but I can't bring myself to eat the flatbread.

    My name is Jo and I am a Subway Addict! (hope I didn't offend anyone) I love subway oven roasted chicken on either the flat bread or the 9 grain wheat toasted, with spincach, tomato, green peppers, onions and a little southwest....I also have to have that little splurge....love that sauce! I just made myself hungry and now I think I will have to get subway for lunch.

    i used to love subway but found out the stuff they put into the bread (stuff they put into fertiliser) yuuuck.

    Same their bread is terrible and their "9 grain wheat" is more like 1 grain.

    Other then the veggies, subway is ALL JUNK. The bread is 280 calories just for a 6 inch and is loaded with cheap starches and fertilizer bi-products. The meats and cheeses are very processed and loaded with sodium. A sub there can easily top 1000 calories if you have dressing meat and cheese on there, even a salad can be pushing it. Why waste $5 on a salad anyway when you can make one at home for much cheaper that is WAY healthier?

    I agree most the subs people are talking about I would fall over and die from the calories. Don't fit much into "healthy" besides the veggies.

    I love the new flatbread. Buffalo chicken, turkey ham, club, if im feeling frisky: chicken bacon ranch or pizza but HOLAY theres tons of calories in the ranch dressing! According to the website 300 something calories for 2oz. No joke!!

    mmm... now I want a sub! My 3 year old loves them too :) Much better than McD's ;)

    :yawn:

    Subway 4-5 days a week. Footlong chicken on wheat with cheese, veg, & dressing.

    That junk helped me lose these 83lbs. How's your progress coming?

    Hey good for you for losing the weight. If it fits within your calorie goals go for it. I personally think eating out 4-5 days a week is a massive waste of money though. I lost 60 pounds myself, so it's not my first rodeo.

    Lol

    ETA: I love Subway, as well. And, I think if you are eating on the run it's a great alternative to all the other places I USED to stop at!! People in the business world tend to eat out more often, and I would think it would get difficult to always force yourself to make the right choices at a lot of the restaurants. Anywho, that's my two cents!! GO SUBWAY! :drinker:

    I loveee subway! I get one if I've forgotten to make my own lunch for work, and I pass one of the way to work so I just grab one.
    I always get the same, but the bread changes!
    6" Veggie patty on any bread I feel like, with cheese, lettuce, tomato, peppers, cucumber, and light mayo. I think it's about 320 calories, that's what I've been told anyway.
    Yummy lunch!

    This is definetly more then 320 calories. The bread alone is 280, and the cheese is 40 cal a slice. Don't know about the patty.

    Totally. I always get pretty much the same thing; it's my fav. 6 inch on Honey Oat - Cold Cut Combo w/ ALL the veggies, pepper jack cheese and no mayo - just honey mustard. It's about 490 calories. And worth every single one. :)

    Hmmm, do you have a source to back up this claim?


    I've always thought Subway was decent, but do appreciate it even more now when I really need an easy, healthy meal. I usually stick to turkey with tons of veggies and a small splash of honey mustard.

    Ah, well I asked the person who made it and they told me that the italian bread was 220cal, the patty was (can't really remember now, think they said 80~ cal) and cheese was 40cal, light mayo was 20cal. Obviously my maths is awful :') I didn't really count it properly before!
    I'll see if they have the info on their website.
