Separating the Subs

Jared devoured it daily and lost over one hundred pounds. What’s not to love about Subway? Whether you’re in the mood for something savoury or sweet, we’ve selected the best options for eating well on the go.
Breakfast (or hangover remedy) worth breaking for
Called the "perfect food," eggs are rich in essential nutrients, healthy fat and protein. Sandwiched between a toasted English muffin with cheese, and you have the winning pick for under 200 calories and six grams of fat.
Lunch on the bun
With seven (six-inch sized) sandwiches under six grams of fat, it’s hard to go wrong here.
For a good whop of protein (21 grams) and a decent amount of carbs (48 grams) the Oven Roasted Chicken topped with mustard, tomato and lettuce always hits the spot.
Veggie you say?
The Veggie Delite is all you need to know – and love. For extra protein, add shredded mozzarella (lower in fat and calories versus Swiss) and bring the protein quotient up (eight grams), while still keeping sodium to a minimum (410 mg).
Salad Main or Side
For the extreme carb-conscious, simply hold the bun and enjoy Oven Roasted Chicken, Turkey Breast & Ham or Roast Beef atop a bed of greens. The only possible blunder here is in the dressing. Stick with fat-free Italian (just 35 calories).
Cookie it Up
While freshly baked and innocently-sized, Subway cookies average 30 grams of carbs, 17 grams of sugar and 10 grams of fat! But that’s not to say you can’t indulge. Opt for the Oatmeal Raisin or Chocolate Chip (210 calories each), and do more burpees at the gym.
Just say no:
To Tuna! It’s true. A six-inch sub contains 252 calories, 920mg of sodium and 30 grams of fat. And ‘no’ again to the new breakfast Yogurt Parfait for its 20 grams of sugar (Jared never did, nor should you!)
