I hate fish

Another vote for not eating it if you dislike it but I hope you don't judge all fish by canned tuna (I adore tuna sandwiches)
Some of my favorites:
1.Grilled or barbecued red or white snapper with salt, lime, and cilantro.
2. Baked sockeye with dill and lemon.
3. Baked trout with orange and soy glaze.
4. Grilled swai fillet with tomato.
5. Grilled mackerel with salt or tomato.
6. Any smoked fish.
7. Anchovies or tinned sardines in olive oil on a salad or crackers.

Before I started my weight loss journey, I wouldn't touch fish. I hated the stuff. Shellfish, yes, but regular fish, no.
Now I eat fish at least twice a week - oftentimes more than that. And I like it. That being said, you will never get me near a can or a pouch of tuna. I don't even like to do frozen fish. It has to be fresh.
If you're set on trying fish, maybe go for a fresh tilapia fillet. That's the fish I started out with and I was pleasantly surprised by its fishless taste. Cooked certain ways it reminded of chicken breast. Also, its pretty cheap in terms of seafood - if you don't like it its not like you're throwing away tons of money.1 -
Tilapia tastes like dirt to me. The one fish I cannot eat.1

Big difference between walleye and canned tuna. I don't mind fish, but would far rather have walleye than canned tuna.0 -

Heh, I'm with you too. I often feel like I'm the only one who hates tilapia given how often it gets recommended, but then I remember it's so frequently recommended as fish for people who don't like fish, and I love fish, so!2 -
Tilapia has little taste. You add flavor to it by marinade, coating or the cooking process. It's nice fried in butter and jalepeno jelly. ☺1

Tilapia is for people who don't life fish!! LOL A white fish like halibut is good for people who don't care for fish. Halibut baked with some butter and lemon, awesomeness.1 -

I don't know about people who don't care for fish, but halibut IS awesomeness.1 -

Same here. I love most fish/seafood (and love most of them best raw, as in sashimi/sushi!), but can't stand tilapia. Yuck.
As to the OP - if you don't like fish, don't eat it. Nothing says you have to eat fish to lose weight or be healthy.1 -
Canned tuna isn't the best tasting fish out there. I agree with what others have said about getting fresh fish cooked properly. I don't mind canned tuna, but it has to be as a part of a recipe, usually with some kind of sauce with it.1

The only thing that beats halibut to me is swordfish - delicious, grilled swordfish is heavenly.2 -
Agree with the above on Tilapia. I've buried the taste in a puttanesca, and that's the only way I can choke it down.0

The only thing about halibut is it is very easy to overcook and dry out.0 -

Over cooked halibut es no bueno. Or any fish for that matter. Seared ahi tuna is good too.0 -
I love tuna but I don't really like fresh fish so I eat a bunch of canned tuna. I recommend finding something you can eat. Like shrimp. But there are non meat sources of omega 3s like flax. Or even take a supplement.1

I rarely have fish. Sometimes hubby cooks some for himself and I eat something else.0 -
