Truth about Subway

[skinsfan]

i personally think it is one of the better "fast food" meals but it does have its downs sides, the bread being the main one

When I decided to get back in shape last year, I started eating subway almost everyday for lunch instead of the typical fast food that everyone else I work with would eat.

I always got the 6" turkey on italian with onions/banana peppers and a little bit of honey mustard sauce.

I'm down from 196 lbs and probably 25+% BF to 160 lbs and maybe 13-15% now.

That being said I'm sure it had nothing to do with subway, I reduced my caloric intake to around 1300 calories a day during that timeframe and did 30 minutes on a stationary bike everyday. I probably could have eaten just about anywhere for lunch and lost weight with the amount of calories i was consuming. It's just that subway is very convenient when your at work and don't cook the night before.

The meat quality isn't even as good as what you can get in the grocery store. The sodium will be high but if you get turkey with lots of veges and mustard instead of mayo it would be a better choice than micky d's

The meat kind of sucks and the bread has sugar in it, but if I need something quick its better than not eating or eating (gasp) mcdonalds or wendys or something.

If I'm cutting its 6" turkey and ham on wheat with double meat, spicy mustard, lettuce, greenpeppers. If I'm bulking its a 12" instead and I add provolone.

If I am eating out, or considering fast food I usually hit up calorieking.com and look up what I am thinking of eating from each place and pick the best. Might be overkill, but it works for me.

only eat subway every now and again, and when i do its a cheat meal.

If you consider what the normal non fitness oriented person eats - subway is a huge step up.
