My family loves to eat at Subway. Pre-surgery I enjoyed eating there too. But now I can't seem to find anything at Subway to eat. There is so much bread. I have tried getting the seafood on an English muffin, but now that does not taste good. If you like Subway, what do you order? Thanks Sleevers

Does your subway do Soups? They have salads as well. In fact they just came out with a chopped salad. They also have flat breads available but that's not really much better than the bread. Subway is good if you are trying to lower fat but it's still not an optimum choice if you are avoiding carbs. Maybe you could do double meat and not eat all of the bread?

I've never been to sub way, but I thought I heard that they would make any of their sandwichs into a salad.< /p>

I love Subway but have only been there once since surgery and I had an egg, ham and cheese on flatbbread but when I got it home I took it off the flatbread basically and just had the rest. I had a 6 inch that made it three meals. I have not done much for salads yet but I did the chicken salad before surgery a lot and loved that. I have seen where some people also have them "dig" out the bread so it is just the outside of the bread. It is still a lot, but saves some. I would also toast it, which I did not use to do, but since toast is easier on the sleeve than regular bread. Just an idea. You could probably even ask them to put your "sandwich" in a bowl (like the salad is) and just put what you want on it like vegetables without the bread. I have to come up with something, too, because my family likes it a lot, too.

eight months out. had a chicken breast sandwich (green pepper and tomatoe) on flat bread from subway. pulled off all of the bread, except bread touching chicken. was able to eat half of chicken breast flat bread sandwich.

took small bites and chewed completely. felt satisfied and was not hungry for hours.

i know it is hard to throw perfectly good food away. don't force the food. you just feel uncomfortable for hours.

hope this helps. :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
