    What's wrong with fast food? As long as you hit all your macros and micros and don't exceed your calorie goal at the end of the day, it doesn't matter what you eat...

    Nothing wrong with an occassional trip to Subway, better than other fast food choices. If I don't have anything in my fridge for lunch somedays, I hit the Subway close to work. I get a 6 in turkey & swiss on wheat with lots of veggies and honey mustard. Clocks in at around 400 calories. Has lots of protein and fiber. The sodium is a bit high (due to the processed meat), but still not a bad meal in a fix.

    Also, Subway's website provides a nutritional chart of every little thing they serve there, down to each veggie topping. So you can always check it out to plan what you'd get there if you went again.

    I have a 6 inch sub from subway several times a week. I usually get the chicken breast on wheat with lettuce, tomato, onion, hot peppers and honey mustard. Usually around 400 cals.
    I figure as long as I stay within my numbers then i'm fine...and i've lost 26lbs so far.

    Well like any restaurant, it totally depends on what you have. If you have 12" steak and cheese with double meat plus bacon, obviously that's going to be a lot worse than a 6" ham on wheat with a load of salad.

    Check out Subway's website, it has a really good nutritional breakdown for every single item. You can put your sub in exactly how you like it and get a pretty good approximation (obviously it'll vary a little if the "sandwich artist" is heavy handed or whatever).

    I would say it's healthier than probably some other "fast food" selections out there. I would have loaded that sandwich you got with veggies and some mustard instead of just the bread and lunch meat, but that's just me.

    I'm taking my daughter to McDonald's for lunch tomorrow! She's been stuck inside because of the snow since Tuesday and going crazy.. so we are going to pack up the baby and walk to McD's, have lunch and play on the playground. As long as you are under your calories and get enough fat/protein a day... you can eat whatever you want!

    If you have to ask, you probably already know the answer.

    I worked at a Subway. I know what those punks do to the food when no one is there.

    I can't handle all this fast food shaming!

    Why would subway not be ok to eat? How exactly is subway better than other fast food choices? How is fast food inferior to all other types of food? I just don't understand...
