Sandwiches are bad for you.

Making a sandwich with meat, thin cheese, yellow mustard, light mayo, onion and pickle USING a food scale. Random observer: "Uh oh. Are we off track today?" Whoops. I forgot my chicken, brown rice and asparagus IV at home! (PS I like chicken and rice but I didn't realize beyond them I was off track.)

I love sandwiches! When my kids go to college I plan to have sandwiches for dinner every night!2

People who make remarks like that are quite often bitter about their own weight struggles. And/or believe diet woo and not CICO.
Take my pizza and fries from my cold dead (skinny) hands.5 -
Yeah people have a lot of misconceptions about what constitutes healthy food. Sounds like you handled it like a champ3

There's nothing about sandwiches that make them inherently unhealthy or fattening anyway.
Don't you pay fools any mind.2 -

Oh I agree 100%. These little instances just speak to me about other people's mindsets on weight loss. And I hate to assume but the "all or nothing" mentality in my opinion is a huge reason why so many find weight loss so impossible. I am glad I finally realized the same years ago. (Thanks MFP!)1 -

I had a friend make a similar comment to me once. But to be fair, I was making one of these.

Ahhhh... this reminds me of the Real Men of Genius commercials that used to run.
Mr. Giant Taco Salad inventor (edited)
"Today we salute you Mr. Giant Taco Salad Inventor. A culinary invention that baffles the human mind, a twelve thousand calorie salad. Ground beef, refried beans, guacamole, cheese, sour cream and, if there is any room left, a few shreds of lettuce. (I don't see no mayonnaise) Some may ask, is your Taco Salad Healthy? Of course it is, it's a salad isn't it?"

I love egg and cheese sandwiches. Out of 44 (straight) days of tracking, I know at least half started with an over easy egg, a slice of cheese, and an english muffin (I need to find something not so dry...). Is it still a sandwich if it is on an english muffin? I used to eat them on bread but my kids use up all of the bread.0
