    How much protein? IMHO you are better off with some roast beef than tomato and mayo.

    I haven't been to Arby's in quite some time (read: years). Is it possible to find something on their website that is low(er) calorie and still appetizing to you?

    Just beware of mayonaise and cheese on your sandwich -- those will really push up the calories.

    She already had the tomato and mayo sandwich.


    In the future, I would eat the arby's sandwich you spoke of. It at least has some protein.

    I don't either.

    I'm shocked that a sandwich from Arby's has only 210calories, but I say go for it. It will at least have loads more protein than tomatoes and mayo! As long as you're not way over for the day you're good. :)

    Well, a tomato with mayo sandwich is probably about the same, or more. Sara Lee 100% whole wheat classic bread, 2 slices = 150 cal. 1 Tb mayo = 100 cal. 1 Tomato, sliced = about 15 cal. So you end up at 275. The Arby's probably has more protein and may hold you for longer, and you can always have a tomato by itself later to bump up the vitamins.

    you should always choose the meal that has more protein. the arbys is much better than the sandwich you mentioned. thats the healthiest sandwich ive found on the arby's menu also.

    it has a ton of protein and you should NEVER make mayo one of the ingredients on a sandwich!
