I get a sub from subway maybe 4-5 times a year. I buy a footlong but here's where I've got Jared beat...

I explain my situation and the employees are always ready and willing to please. This is how I order:

Dbl tuna in a cup (easily 3 cans of tuna). I get Italian bread but just have it sliced open and wrapped separately. cheese is separate. Then for my veggies, they use 2 containers to hold all my veggies (future salad, way too many veggies for a footlong). Tomatoes, onions, pickles, lettuce and spinach. No sauces. It cost $10.33 and makes about 12 mini sandwiches. Usually I eat half of my tiny sub and the dog gets the majority of the bread. I leave them a nice tip because I appreciate great customer service.

There's wayyy too much tuna for the bread. I don't eat all the bread but then I have plenty of veggies for a couple salads.

I think it's rather genius. Kudos Subway!

That is a really smart idea! I hope a subway near me will allow it. Thanks!

Just explain your situation. It's reasonable that you can't eat very much at a time. It's wasteful to make it complete because it will get soggy.

Call ahead and ask them if they will accommodate your situation!

that's a great idea about the cups, I usually just get it with no Condiments and ask that the lettuce and spinach be in the bottom and top so I can pull it off the bread. I will definitely try out your idea with the friendly subway folks here.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
