Thread: Squid - calamari - other seafood

So, I really can only have prawns or white fish, does it not make a difference what white fish type you have - cod, monkfish, etc - is all white fish just the same?

I've been true to the protocol apart from the squid today so it will be interesting for the scales tomorrow!

Would love to hear from any other Pescatarians on what they eat?

Thanks

No, not liking Lobster (mainly due to the price LOL!!) or crab, so its white fish only for me. Its ok though.

Loving the HCG diet, really impressive.

I absolutely love veg and fruit and this is the only things I'm missing - I big plate of mixed veg and a big bag of apples, its nearly killing me with the two apples a day, but other than that its amazing, small price to pay for a few weeks though, so its all good!

Thanks for your replies.

Well I'm glad to report an excellent weigh in this morning so it didn't have an adverse effect. I'm going to try it again during the week as its a really nice alternative to the prawn lunch!! 0.8 kg this morning, which is only the second time I've had that loss. I was worried at bed time but happy this morning. Total now 5.1 kg which I'm very happy with. 100% protocol today to make sure!! Will keep updated if/when I try it again and the following day result.

I have visited the vege forum but the only problem for me is that we don't have access to any processed vegetarian foods, quorn etc and most of the products are recommended by US dieters and the products and the stores don't exist here!! Will have another read today.

I am actually really liking the very natural fish and veg diet to be honest, its pure and its simple and its effective. I'm going to continue it when Phase 2 is over by just increasing the choices of my veg (I'm very much missing carrots!) and fish options, its a very good healthy diet to go forward with!

You can have scallops... So squid might be ok. Also white tuna, I read some people have SUCESS with (sashimi style, as well as canned tuna in water)
Lobster and crab might not be too bad price wise of its only a small portion a day. I'm guessing a small lobster would be 2 meals. Many times I can find it for about $5 a lb so at 1.25lb a day would be under 6-7 (us) dollars. Scallops too, although pricy by pound (around $13), a few ounces is not that bad. It could be just the thing you need to break up your diet every few days. Lobster 2x a week, and scallops 2x a week, that's not bad at all

If you live near the shore go directly to the docks and bring cash for the fisherman. They are more than happy to sell to you most times bring your own containers just incase !

You cannot have scallops or tuna. If you choose to eat them, that is off protocol and you are taking the risk that you might not stabilize in P3.
