LA Weight Loss - How do I count sushi??

I loveeee sushi and thankfully I can have it on the diet. Now, how do I count it? Let's say a california roll or a salmon/tuna roll....what does that count as?

I am with you on this. I went out for sushi the other night- although I was discouraged because it is so high in sodium. But go for the sashimi instead of the rolls, and count as a normal protein. With the rolls- depending on how much rice is used you could probable count one tuna roll as 1 starch and 1/2 protein- it's probable only about 2 oz. of fish.
Hope this helps!

I am sorry you've not gotten a lot of responses, but it's probably because we just don't know that much about it. Ask a counselor. Maybe you could also think of a carb craver thing in regards to the rolls.

I love sushi too...if I have a california roll (5 piece) I count as one starch and one protein if the rice is not too much...I may be off though

I'd think you'd count fat as well since I think california rolls have avacado in them.

oh right good point Mar thanks!

Awesome thanks! I love sushi, I can never get sick of it.....I could eat it everyday if I wanted to...but iunno about do that on this diet :|

I asked this question earlier in the year and here is the thread... i hope it helps... it sounds like everyone is on the same page - starch and protein.
