[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is surprising! Mayo and cheese have soooo many calories it’s kind of mind-blowing. And with bread it’s easy to get a much bigger serving than you would think. Slices at sandwich shops can kind of trick the eye, the same way any difference in a container can make volume deceiving.

I don’t have any recommendations though except maybe eat just half of it? Theoretically if you are just listening to your body you won’t consume more calories than you need...[/quote]
No cheese though! I did not get any cheese. I have a severe dairy allergy. Half of the regular size seems way too little to me! Dh got a subway sandwich, and it was almost 3 times longer and more stuff on it! I can see how that footlong can be well over 1000 calories![/quote]

DP. I agree half of a regular size is too little food for a meal, but if all your food for a meal is meat and bread and sandwich fixings it’s gonna be a calorie bomb. This is why nutritionists push 5-7 servings of fruit and vegetable. You need to eat 2+ servings with every meal. [/quote]
I was traveling and packed fruit and ate it, so this seemed like a better option than some fast-food hamburger place. It was so tasty to me though! [/quote]
