I pretty much dislike all fish and I know that has to change. Can someone recommend a non fishy fish?

Tilapia and whitefish are the best 2 non fishy fish

If you feel you can have just a slight bit of fish flavor, grouper, monkfish and flounder are all fairly light tasting.

Rockfish, stripped bass, haddock, flounder, tilapia, grouper. There are lots in my local grocery store. There are also scallops, crab and shrimp.

I've found chilean sea bass, mahi mahi, orange roughy and even swordfish are not fishy if prepared correctly and with simple ingredients..

I don't eat fish, but my wife swears by tilapia -- expressly because it is less 'fishy'. She's found that a lot of fish though is less 'fishy' if it is really fresh. Of course, depending on where you live, it may be next to impossible to get anything really fresh.

Just out of curiosity, why are you hellbent on making yourself eat something you don't like? That's what turned my first weightloss success into a failure ultimately. I actually have a habit of doing things like that to myself. My best friend refers to this as my 'self-flagellation ritual': reading books that I dislike to 'expand my mind', and feeding myself foods I can't stand because they're 'healthy'.

Definitely try new things, but there are plenty of options out there; you should be able to find foods to both enjoy and sustain you. :)

Hi Brenty, I figured I can only eat so much chicken I may as well branch out and try.

Ugh, i hate fish, cooked on a plate in front of me. When Dh brings his hardwon fish home i give it to the cats. Skin and bones *shudder*

However, i lov sashimi and gave it regularly, i slso like canned tuna and eat plenty of that. I do also eat salmon, often put it in a laksa or red curry

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
