Subway Diet

The Subway Diet was popularised by Jared Fogle who lost 245 pounds by eating only subway sandwiches for a year. The Subway is basically a low fat diet, which works because you consume fewer calories than you use. There is no cheese, mayonnaise or oil allowed on any of the subs. Below is what Jared Fogle ate for a year to lose 245 pounds

Breakfast:
Coffee
Lunch:
A six-inch turkey sub, no mayo, no oil and a bag of baked potato chips.
Dinner:
A foot long veggie sub.
Drinks:
Unlimited diet soda through the day.

  • Easy to follow
  • No cooking

Subway Diet : Reasons against

  • Expensive
  • Boring
  • Not enough vitamins or minerals

Subway Diet : Verdict

The Subway Diet is a great personal success story it is not however a good or sensible diet. There is no mystery to it if you use more calories than you consume you will lose weight but no one would suggest a 1000 calorie diet of just chocolate a day so I would also leave this diet well alone.
