can you eat them if so what ones? i love subway and when i get to real food i would love to have one:w00t:

maybe subway salad but I think getting the bread down will not be good.

I eat them all of the time.

Delicious, nutritious and cheap.

The bread is not an issue if I take my time.

:thumbup::bored:I'm so worried i will never get to eat normal food again. I read some people can and some people can't. I know with my luck i will be one of those people who can't. I was banded 9/10/10. I'm really tired of liquids....

I can not eat even a few bites of a subway sandwich.

If eating "normal" foods is more important to you than your health and well-being, then you should rethink surgery and not have any fills until you are ready to accept that fact that you may miss out on something you "love" to eat.

As sarcastic as it sounds, I am not being facetious. You have the rest of you life to set priorities and sometimes there is a very gray line between happiness and health.

I can eat about 3" of a Subway sandwich. Sometimes the bread goes down, sometimes I use it as a handle and tear it off as I go.

The choice of sandwich is up to you. It will depend on your "rules" from your surgeon/nutritionist, and your own experiences.

I won't eat a meatball sub, because I tend to have a problem with hamburger. Also, it's too hard to take small bites of meatball sandwiches.

Stuck food (bread or otherwise) feels like a rock sitting just under the sternum.

I eat wraps sometimes, not subs--too uncomfortable with all that bread! I could manage a bite or two at the most. I watch my husband eat a whole sub once in a while, and think "That would make me feel like I was dying!" :thumbup: I miss sandwiches with big, thick slabs of bread sometimes, but not enough to regret having the band and being thin and healthy.

Bread doesn't work at all for me but could eat the Subway fillings.

All I was saying was tired of liquids. I think I made my choice 6 months ago when I opted for this life change. Little to late to rethink surgery lol.:biggrin:

I should have said rethink fills.

I was not being sarcastic. If you fear that you won't be able to eat something that makes you happy. Then make sure you aren't adjusted too tightly.

Congratulations on your large weight loss btw.... :biggrin:

the trick is not to let yourself get adjusted too tight, the tighter you are the less you can eat and the more things that no longer work. I recently had to have some fluid removed because I was too tight, it was quite a learning experience but I feel so much better now.

I had a craving for one yesterday. I probably wouldn't eat the bread. I can eat bread though, but it would be a waste. It would just fill me up quickly.

Congratulations on your large weight loss btw.... :biggrin:

Thank you and congratulations on yours as well!
