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. :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
