TUNA FISH!!!!

[dna9488]

ok, so i have found a new love.....my meal #5 will now consist of tuna fish in a can...that bumble bee shit.

Each can has 110cals, 10 fat cals, 13g protein

Should i eat 1 can or 2 cans????

I heard too much can food isn't good for u, and also mercury levels are high

[ROCKILLER]

Glad you like it, I hate the shit. I've been choking down a can before bed lately. I wouldnt eat more than a can a day

ok, well right now its 9:30pm...i had one can of tuna with a piece of bread at 8:30pm and i am gettin hungry, i might as well boost it to 2 cans but no bread becuz i need to cut down, and those carbs at nice r useless.

I think the can has like 2.5 servings, which is around 32.5grams of protein or so. Thats how much the ones I buy contain.

Im eating about 2 cans throughout the day with some sweet or baked patatos. I was eating around 4 cans per day before but cause I got worried about the mercury levels, I lowered it to 2 cans.

I eat tuna for breakfast! Watch out for the high sodium dont live off of the stuff. But I usually have at least 2 or 3 cans a day.

that is 1 serving. each can has 2.5 servings so a whole can has 30-35 grams of protein.

ya i just noticed that while i was reading, thats a lot of fuckin protein for that tiny little can....that shit does not keep u full though, i might as well eat two cans and than add some fruit

BUT than again i don't want that sugar at 8:00pm at nite.

2 can of tuna has a lot of sodium and mercury. not the best thing in the world to eat a lot of. chicken breast is a much better option.

[basskiller]

plus after a few weks... the mere smell of yuna gags me..

invest in one of the georger forman grills... .. check yourseld some chicken breast and fry it up on theit.... usually I use a bery light coasting of pamd and just a tab bit of seasoning... done withine 7 to 10 minutes

tastes great als.. buy the big one and fry up a days worth

i would stick to one can a day. most tuna will have between 150-200mg of sodium per serving, times that by three servings, and its pretty high. some are better than others though

ya i hear ya, i tend to buy now the Tuna fish in water rather than in oil
Just the drain the water out b4 i eat it, and ususally tends to take out some of the sodium

it does to some extent. but the meat will intake sodium from sitting i the solution inside the can. like bouncer said, chicken is the better choice. tuna is great protein wise, just the sodium i would worry about.

draining it wont take out much of the sodium.

Well, assuming you arent overly concerned with water retention and your blood pressure has always been perfect, is it really a big deal if you take in a little more sodium than is recommended???

no not really. but you dont want to be taking in a shit load every day either.

Word. Usually all of my chicken breasts during the day are the frozen 14 pack from Costco and I might have 1 or 2 cans of tuna a day. I dont add salt to much of anything while cooking, but i know that the tuna and frozen chicken in itself probably puts me over 2000 on its own.

Try a version of Grinders Mexi-Ranch stir fry - basically just fat free ranch and salsa - throw some oats in and you're good to go...

You can always go with the ole Tuna Shake too - it isn't nearly as bad as it sounds - I promise if you hold your nose you'll be fine ....

The tuna mush that BOUNCER posted a couple years ago and the tuna burgers are badass. Search for them, you wont be sorry. BOUNCER, i have been feeding that to my clients for a couple years now. They love it, bump for a good recipe. Personally my favorite tuna dish grosses everyone out but I take 1 cup (uncooked) brown rice which is about 2 cups cooked with 2 cans tuna and about 1/2 cup "thick and chunky" salsa and mix it all up. Eat with a spoon. Makes your house smell like hell though.
