I'm having an early sushi dinner tonight so I would like to know what others eat when you have sushi.
I'm skipping breakfast and having a very light fruit lunch so I'm not too worried about it but still curious
Thanks!!

You can eat as low cal or as high as you want with sushi, depending on what kind. Sashimi is your best bet- pure protein and you can eat loads of it for few calories (like 30-40 calories per piece).
As far as rolls go, obviously stay away from anything tempura, "crispy", or fried.
Spicy tuna rolls have a mayo based condiment (the spicy part) that adds calories fast.
Eel also is in a sauce that adds on the calories.
Avocado in rolls is delicious and healthy fat, so if you can spare the calories, enjoy!
Generally any crazy roll with sauces and whatnot will jack up the calories.
A plain tuna roll is a good choice (less than 200 calories for a whole roll). Salmon is higher calorie but again, a healthy fat so a good choice if you can spare the calories.0 -
You just had to go there. I love me some California Rolls0

One of everything :drinker:0

Salmon sashimi and raw oystersss. That's what I get. Sometimes an eel roll if I have a bunch of calories to spare.0

oooh its my favourite, so miss good sushi (I live in the UK at the mo so no sushi).
salmon sashimi is my favourite. miso soup. Just steer clear of any tempura which is fried.0 -
Raw rolls only. If you can find the ones wrapped in seaweed or cucumber, order those. I have started ordering just plain sashimi (raw fish, no rice.) My favorite local sushi place has somehting called tuna kibatchi which is raw tuna sliced and marinated in a spicy clear sauce served over diced cucumber. It is delish!

Mmmm I'm definitely a fan of salmon sashimi!! I can spare the calories so I'm probably going to have my favorite roll a Philadelphia :P I just love a little cream cheese in my roll mmmm. Oo and ill probably have some plain edamame!! I can't wait to go hahah0

crunchy sht0

Salmon Sashimi! Mmmmmmmmm0

I always start with either a seaweed salad or squid salad and miso soup. Like everyone else said the shashimi is best when watching cals but you can get the raw slices on rice too to help fill you up. Just watch your rolls cuz the rice will add calories fast and say away from fried I love me some sushi!0

Godzilla, Philly, 3 C, Hanako, Cucumber, shrimp tempura, and tamago (cooked egg) rolls
Oh and I also like edemame (not too much salt but helps you feel full)0 -
spicy sashimi salad or you can ask them to wrap your sushi in cucumber instead of rice. That is the only way I eat Sushi. 7 pieces raw slices, with veggie and torreados sauce is 146 calories. No need to skip meals to make up for a Sushi night....0

spicy tuna spicy tuna spicy tuna....Enjoy yourself and exercise!0
-
Stay away from cream cheese filled rolls. I really like cooked eel rolls or crab!0
-
I just order the sashimi, tuna, yellowtail, and salmon. NO RICE or just a bit. Way too many calories.0
-
Philadelphia roll
California roll
Sweet potato roll
Shrimp tempura
Spicy tuna
anything but Eel!
And i know the tempura is the WORST, but, ITS.SO.Good.
Dang.. now ive got a sushi craving. !0 -
I get a sashimi appetizer, and stick with spicy tuna or spicy salmon rolls. Nothing with cream cheese, fried ingredients (crunchy), or any kind of sauce. Also, low sodium soy sauce and lots of wasabi! Enjoy!0
-
If I have the calories to spare, shrimp tempura roll is my all-time favorite!0
-
Don't skip breakfast! It's what gets your metabolism going!
If anything, split your fruit between breakfast/lunch, but like others said, there are so many options for a low-calorie sushi meal that you don't really need to skip anything -- just don't overdo it.0
