Hi Kathy,

The protein is important, but I tend to get meats like turkey or chicken

because they are so much lower in fat.

I prefer the Subway club with lettuce, tomato, onions, sweet peppers, black

olives and mustard. I usually get a foot long and eat part and save the

rest for later on.

Re: diet,, yes or no...........Subway, Mike

Hi Mike,

Presently when I go to Subway, I get the Italian BMT, double meat and

double provolone cheese, a little lettuce and tomato, and oil and

vinegar.

I wonder how much protein is in the meat, or is the meat a bad thing

because of how salty the meats on it are. Right now, I don't care,

but I will have to care and make adjustments really soon!

Thanks,

Cathy

That is why I normally stick to the single meat and if I have cheese, I tend

to stick to the white cheeses and definitely don't do mayonnaise or oil.

Most restaurants like that put way too much mayo on the sandwiches and I

have found that the oil makes the sandwich really soggy by the time I get it

home and eat it.

Ok your sandwich has:

450 calories

21g of fat

8g of saturated fat

0 trans fat

55mg of cholesterol

1790mg of sodium

47g carbs

4g of dietary fiber

8g of sugar

23g of protein

10% Vit A

40% Vit C

15% Calcium

25% Iron

Chicken Breast has:

330 calories

5g of fat

1.5g of saturated fat

0 trans fat

45mg of cholesterol

1020mg of sodium

47g carbs

4g of dietary fiber

9g of sugar

24g of protein

6% Vit A

35% Vit C

6% Calcium

25% Iron

Now, and this is key, The Chicken Breast information does NOT include

cheese while I think the BMT one does. It's my guess that the

addition of cheese to the Chicken one would kick it up to be about

the same as the BMT except that the chicken breast might have more

protein too. Also the chicken breast might have slightly less fat and

sodium although I can't really tell not knowing what the cheese has

in it. I wonder if the oil adds fat to yours too maybe.

Double meat probably kicks them both up a good 150-200 calories. I

personally would recommend against the double cheese although I admit

to being tempted. The pepper jack puts enough of a kick of flavor in

where I've been ok with single cheese.

So if you figure I'm pulling in 650 calories on a double meat with

cheese chicken breast that's quite a lot. But I usually only have 250

calories for lunch and probably only 1500 calories the total of the

rest of the day. I figure so long as I stick to around 2000-2500 a

day I'm doing well. Hell I used to eat 2-3 times that and had no

physical activity.

The biggest thing to remember about eating something like subway is

that if you do go and get double meat or double cheese or both you're

adding quite a lot of calories and higher amounts of fat and sodium.

Also, don't even think about mayo. You'd think they'd offer fat free

mayo there.
