Just a note: dont be discouraged by calories and fat as if you're working out as you actually need to increase the amount of fats and calories your body gets per day to function properlly - a lesson I learnt the hard way. If you're trying to lose weight, just half the sandwiches, put the other half away and have it the next day for lunch.
Besides, who doesnt love a good sandwich?
