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

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
