I looked on subway.com at the nutrition information for their subs. Not sure if they count that with the bread, considering it doenst know what bread youre choosing. So, how many calories/sodium/grams of fat would be in:
Veggie Delight
12" Wheat
Oil and Vinegar
or
12" Wheat
Turkey Breast
Lettuce, Tomato, Green peppers, Cucumbers
Mustard
I want to stay around 600 calories or so...not sure if this cuts it. Does Wheat bread count as grains? Also, What if i used the Atkins wrap instead?

well, for your veggie delight sub, the bread is 400 calories (for a 12") and the oil is 45 calories per teaspoon. this is not a very large amount, so i'm going to assume they put on at least 2 teaspoons. the amount of calories in vinegar is below 5 per serving (also a teaspoon), so by government standards the nutrition info can say it's calorie-free. as for the veggies, the amount of each that they put on your sub is so small that they're allowed to tell you that they don't add any calories. however, when you go to the info for the whole sandwich, they list it at 230 calories for a 6". it would make sense that the bread they use in the nutrition is either the italian (white) or the wheat bread. the italian is 220 calories per 6 inches; therefore the veggies on your sub add 20-60 calories. to be safe, i'd assume that it's 60 because subway probably used the lowest calorie bread they could in order to make the numbers lower. this is also why they don't include cheese in the nutrition info. so... grand total #1: 550 calories (with 2 teaspoons of oil and no cheese, that is)
the website says the turkey breast is listed at 280 calories for 6 inches (again, without cheese) and the toppings you are adding really aren't going to add a whole lot of calories. therefore, a 12" comes to just a little over 560 calories.
yes, wheat bread is a grain. the atkins wrap is only 120 calories, but you need to keep in mind that your sandwich will not be as big. however, it is also much higher in fiber than the bread is; 12 inches of wheat bread has 6 grams, while a single wrap has 8. as for sodium and fat, the veggie delight is going to be higher in sodium than one may expect because many of the veggies subway uses are pickled. the generic nutrition facts give it 520 mg (but MUCH lower than any meat-containing sub). the only significant source of fat is in the oil, but since their "blend" contains olive oil, you will also be getting some important unsaturated oils. your turkey sub is listed at 1020 mg of sodium, but that's just because virtually any processed meat product is going to be very high in sodium. it is listed at 4.5 grams of fat, only 1.5 of which are saturated.
well done on choosing a healty sandwich, you seem to be on the right track! good luck!

those are both decent choices, and use the atkins wrap or simply get it with no bread. i hope you don't mean 600 calories a day, that will slow your metabolism to a crawl, it's almost starvation, why not get a copy of atkins new diet revolution, it's an eye opener, i've lost 60 pounds and my health has never been better!

The Atkins wrap adds more fiber, but I'm not sure if it's healthier. The turkey sub will give you more protein, which you definitely need if you are male.
They're both good choices. This is what I usually eat when I go there.

I hear that the turkey sub is the better choice for those on a diet. I like the tuna subway. What I do is order the 6 inch tuna and ask them to give me one small scoop only. I do not add mayo or cheese. Just lettuce, tomato, and onion with the tuna. I choose the wheat bread also.

Either one of these are healthy choices. I would personally choose the one with turkey. It probably has less calories and fat grams because it has mustard instead of the oil and vinegar.

sounds good... except the 12" part. a 6" for eigther would easily be good. the veggie might be under 600 for the 12" too, but i wouldn't know for sure.

both are WAY less than 600 calories.veggies is probably 200 and the turkey is prob 400.. and if you get rid of the oil and vinegar it'll be even less
