Sushi for cutting???

**mustang331** · 11-07-2008, 01:20 PM

I just got 6 pieces of sushi, salmon and tuna, but I had the white rice replaced with the brown rice..
Only thing I fear is the fat in the salmon and the brown rice?

Besides that, and the salt from the soy, can it really be that bad??

Really depends on the rest of your diet. When I cut I usually don't have meals that have pro, fat and carbs so whenever I have sushi I call it a cheat. Besides that, I over eat sushi anyway so it has to be a cheat for me.

yea.. I mean Sashimi has to be fine, I think there probably isn't much of a limit even when cutting, unless of course you add soy and salt yourself to death.

But the Salmon is very fatty and then add the carb from the rice, its probably a no no and that is why I am trying to find out more information.

I could easily eat 100.00 worth of sushi in one sitting, but this time it was only 6 pieces

never eat your carbs and your fats at the same time always eat all your protein first. its that simple.

Go to the sushi buffets man, thats where you can have unlimited sushi. (In moderation)
I would count it as a cheat, because just a few pieces isnt enough!
But if youre that worried about it, weigh the fish.
Id say sashimi is better, not only because it is pure protein and fat, the rice may have some sugar to sweeten things up.
Everything has a hidden ingredient nowadays

The sushi rice seasong will have sodium in, but sounds like you're making yourself so you'll have control over it.

How will you make the brown rice sticky? (Potentially sounds dodgy, but you know what I mean I hope!)

No I did not make it myself.. But I do make my own a lot. And to make Brown Rice sticky well here is the trick.

1 cup of brown rice
2 cups of water
3 equals (Sweetener)
and 1 tsp of yellow corn meal

Mix equal and corn meal in water, wait till it boils and you know the rest.

makes brown rice taste that much better too.

dude its fine the pro fat carb thing was disproven if you wanna see the study jsut bump and ill post it, Sushi is fine if it fits in your Marco's just know that white rice is not a good as brown but you'll will be fine look at all the lean Japanese people if you have everything else right sushi wont hurt a thing IMO it will most likely help you

I have to ask............where did you get this theory from? This is pretty bad advice in my opinion.

**Deltasaurus** · 11-10-2008, 01:29 PM

it was like u know common sense dont eat carbs and fat that way less fat will get stored yadda yadda sorta thing then both used for energy not fat storage but i wad disproven pretty quickly

**sweeney todd** · 11-10-2008, 06:29 PM

even if the fat and varb thing was a bad thing, the protein lowers the gi so much and the fats in the fish are ***** 3 so its not an issue at all.

the fat/carb theory is still around?

**OH REALLY** · 11-11-2008, 02:49 PM

I love eating sushi is it OK

if you're worried about the fat in the salmon.... then you really need to hangout here in the diet forum more often.....the fat in salmon is good for you and you need good fats to CUT yes CUT......that being said Sushi is one of the best meals you can have.....just don't go carzy and have it 5 x a week
