Subway Diet

Just about everybody knows about the Subway Diet. Jared Fogle is a media sensation since he lost so much weight by eating Subway sandwiches as a part of his diet instead of fast food or other bad choices. He walked daily and ate Subway as most of his meals, creating a great amount of weight loss for himself and a whole new marketing plan for Subway. There isn’t an official ‘diet’, because no one truly knows what else Jared ate or how Subway fit into his lifestyle. Instead, there is hearsay and fiction about what it could have been like.

You can lose weight with fast food, as long as you do it properly, and Jared Fogle simply took on a low calorie diet like anyone could, and ate Subway as his main meal source. Now, you of course have to make healthy choices eating at Subway, which is a lot easier than trying this same kind of diet as say, McDonald’s. It is probably much harder to find healthy meals at McD’s.

Subway Diet Plan

The Subway diet, as people know it, has two variations. The first consists of coffee and cereal with skim milk for breakfast, a turkey sub for lunch with Diet Pepsi, a vegetarian sub for dinner with water, and apple, orange, and water for a snack. The second variation is coffee for breakfast, a six inch turkey sub and baked chips for lunch, and a 12 inch veggie sub for dinner with no snacks. While the first diet is the most plausible, no one really knows what Jared Fogle ate exactly on his diet, except that he lost more than 200 pounds with Subway subs as his main meal.

Jared Fogle and the Subway diet have taken the nation by storm. Subway even promotes his weight loss, offering a healthy option for all customers by printing their 6 subs with 6 grams of fat or less on their napkins and posting the healthy choices on their menu for everyone to see. Keep in mind that the more condiments (oils, sauces, and cheese) that you add, the higher the calorie and fat count goes. You should load up on veggies on your sandwich, and lean meats, but don’t overdo it with mayo or other sauces that they offer because those are high in calories and fat.

The Subway Diet is a little bit on the expensive side, considering that you’ll be spending an average of $10 a day at Subway to eat. If you’ve got an extra $300 to spend a month on Subway meals instead of groceries, then you might give it a shot. However, when it comes to saving money and losing weight this isn’t the most affordable diet that there is. It does prove, however, that carbs aren’t always the enemy as the Atkins Diet might suggest.
