The anti binge Tuna tip!

[fudgebunny]

Oooh I hope to try blended tuna, not something I thought of before now.

These forums are amazing wish I found them 2 weeks ago before trying to 'eat food' before my stomach is ready and permitted to!! Xx

I love tuna, as do my kids, but we limit our consumption to 2 tins a week max each, due to the possible contamination of mercury. I thought i just mention it in case anyone didnt know!

if you blitz it its not going to have the same filling effect as it then becomes a slider food and will slip straight through yr pouch whether your bypassed or banded. x

Hi all,

Finding this thread really useful as I luuuuurve tuna. Especially the John West light lunches.

I didn't realise about the mercury though. I read the article which is American, so I thought I'd see what the food standards agency say.

They say to limit yourself to 4 tins a week if you're pregnant or trying to conceive.

Here is their link
