Are sandwiches/bread still good for dieting and weight loss?

I've been losing weight for a few months and rarely ever have sandwiches for lunch as I decided to cut down my intake of bread. I never ever eat white bread, only wholemeal. For lunch I usually make an egg white omelette filled with veg and with a side salad or I have ryvita with a low calorie topping or I have a ham salad wholemeal pitta bread.

But I thought I'd treat myself to a sandwhich as they're so tasty. If I had a sandwich with wholemeal bread (58 calories per slice), NO butter, with a slice of turkey from the butchers (so the meat isn't processed etc) with lettuce and cucumber. Would this be as healthy as my other lunches? Or should I only have sandwiches once in a while?

    You can eat anything you want as long as you don't go over your calorie limit. You don't need to stop eating foods that you enjoy, everything is fine in moderation.

    Its healthy. As long as the bread is whole wheat and the meat is lean, I think its a good meal to eat while trying to lose weight.

    look, breads are quite high in calories and carbs, and i'd tend to stay away from them, but if you're on a reduced calorie diet you can eat anything as long as it is low in calories, so i'd say thumbs up for the sandwich. enjoy :)
