One year after changing my eating habits, i noticed that I have been having a huge urge for fish and nothing but. I used to crave steaks and chicken, but now all I ever eat is tilapia, shrimp, mahi mahi, whiting, salmon, you name it! Ive lost more weight since switching to just fish/seafoods. It tastes cleaner to me.

I was Pescetarian for a long time and love it -- giving up beef and pork just feels right to me too. I did eventually end up adding poultry back in.
Fish oils are so good for you! And of course fish is great protein. Shrimp is an UNBELIEVABLE protein, with almost not fat (depending how it's prepared), as I'm sure you already know. Glad your new regimen is working out for you! Best wishes for continued success, health and happiness.
p.s. More people should give up beef! (and pork) Producing these meats uses much too much of our open-land and clean-water resources, compared to others kinds of proteins.0 -

Aaargh! I would eat a lot more fish if I lived on the coast! When I travel to the east or west, I eat it almost exclusively.0

As opposed to fishing... which only depletes the ocean ecosystem beyond all reason.0 -

And you are forgetting about the heavy metals/toxins that will build up over time in your body from eating too much fish, that is unless you are rich and can find it organic, without salt added and without some funky label of it coming from somewhere in Asia..... everything in moderation applies once again.0 -
