My tastiest lunch EVER

Options
I just had a Subway turkey and ham wrap with all the salad and ranch sauce and it was sooo filling and tasty - just 334 calories.

YUM.

Admittedly, I'm not all that clued up on healthy eating. I try, but wouldn't want to become obsessed by it! So is eating Subway healthy??

    WAY better than some other fast food choices out there!! As for truly healthy, I guess it depends on what your nutritional goals are. Sounds like you're more interested in easy swaps to overall improve your nutrition/diet vs. a big overhaul of your life (e.g. Avoiding all processed foods, vegan, etc). If that's true, then Subway is a pretty good choice!

    I agree completely!

    I think there's "cleaner" options (especially in terms of sugars in the sauces/condiments, etc.)... but there's definitely a lot worse too! I enjoy Subway at least once a week :)

    If it was relatively healthy, you enjoyed it, it was within your calories, you're not obsessing over details and you're losing weight? I don't see any problems!

    I love subway too! That being said, I always find I am insanely thirsty an hour after I eat it. I am not one to really worry about sodium but subway does seem to effect me. Just drink sme extra water on a day you choose to eat there :wink:

    Thanks for replying folks :) I'm getting that tomorrow again for sure.

    Yeah, gnalani, just easy swaps and better choices but I'll always eat a little bit of not so good stuff here and there. Like the white chocolate and strawberry muffin this afternoon. Aaargh!

    It depends on how you define "healthy" but in my book, it usually is not healthy because most medical data points to processed meat as one of the worst things you can eat from an increased risk of disease standpoint.

    I had to stop going to Subway. I had a sandwich there, came home, and found out it had 1400 g sodium. Gee I wonder why I was so thirsty....
