Nutritional value in seafood boil?



Recommended Posts

So we were in Phoenix a couple weeks ago and we went to the Angry Crab Shack and it was amazing! However, no one had any idea on how many calories are in it! It's so weird. Seafood boil has been trending for a while now and everyones eating it yet no one has a clue what its nutritional value is...?

I got the 1 lb king crab legs with 1 piece of corn and the Trifecta seasoning (which was something like lemon garlic and cajun seasoning). I obviously didn't eat the corn nor did I finish the crab ( I ate maybe half of it ). Anyway, I googled it so much before we got there and asked the people at the restaurant (I know that's kinda annoying but I really wanted to know). No one has a clue. So I know I can figure out how many calories are in regular crab legs but the thing that's haunting me is the sauce! I saw a few copycat videos and every time they'd do the sauce they'd add 4-5 WHOLE sticks of butter! I know people dont usually eat ALL the sauce but still! Plus I saw a few videos where they'd stuff the crabs with extra butter! I want to try it again here in SF but if it has as many calories as I think, it's definitely not worth it to me.

Does anyone have any ideas?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
