Sushi And Indian

So 2 foods I like a whole lot is Sushi and Indian food. I am trying to get and idea of how I may handle these farther down the line. Are yall able to eat them and if not why?

I can eat both with no problems but I like a very LOOSE band....so a lot of people can't Loli

I'm not much of a seafood fan, even when it's cooked so no help there. I do like Indian food and often get it especially as something I can have for a couple of lunches.  No rice and very easy on the breads.  Especially the veggie dishes are a great way for me to get some veggies in and really enjoy the taste.

I eat both all the time. I don't add much rice to my indian food anymore or have more than a bite or two of naan, but I enjoy it just as much as I did before. it works well because it usually isn't dry food, it pretty much always has sauce. I do still eat sushi but I'm really starting to prefer sashimi. The large chunk of rice that coems with sushi filles me up too much and can be a little to 'dry" sometimes. I knock off half the rice when I eat it or just get sashimi. Sashimi is nice and soft and goes down pretty well even when I'm kind of tight.

Rice is a problem for me with both cuisines.   I have switched to sashimi, which goes down wonderfully well, and for indian, I simply don't eat rice-based items.    I actually eat more indian and japanese now, than I did pre-banding, because for the latter, certainly, it's now affordable since I'm full on so much less, and for the former, indian food like saag paneer and the like go down very well, and are such good bargains, calorically.   Yum.   Now, if only I could learn to cook paneer at home!

The indian food I can't help with.  I can eat sashimi no problem.  The sushi is an issue.  I have to peel off the nori and eat the contents. The nori will cause me to gag and then slime it up-nasty, nasty, nasty.  I have heard that if its wrapped in rice paper it dissolves away and does not have the chewy-ness of nori.  I love sushi and eat it quite a bit.

I can eat sushi, but I don't enjoy it as much anymore..it loses something when you have to chew it as much as I do.. I love indian food and just eat it without the rice!

I have no problem with either...I have sushi (usually a maki roll) about once a week. Indian is a nice treat and no I don't avoid rice because I don't low-carb...I do a sensible balanced approach because I like to feed my brain LOL) but just bear in mind that  anything in a sauce in Indian cuisine is extremely calorie-dense (very high fat content). Tandoori chicken (or other foods cooked in the tandoor) are better choices because they're not drenched in those yummy sauces. Keep something saucy as a small side dish. Nancy
