Experience with scallops?

I know everyone tolerates foods differently but mahi mahi didn't go well at all last night so thought I would ask about scallops?

Tolerance? I do shrimp well. Salmon and now mahi mahi are no fly zones.

TIA.

Since we are both band-to-bypassers I bet we have a similar tolerance...

For some reason I just have a super hard time with fish, now. I could tolerate a loaf of bread easier than I can, fish.

Scallops and Salmon were my two favorite proteins but I just won't go there anymore. Fool me twice...never again.

I'm going from Band to RNY....I'm going to keep this in mind as I try new stuff. I hope I can at least keep Salmon on the menu because I just discovered that I like it (after years of thinking it was gross!)

I'm also a band to bypasser. Scallops no. Salmon grilled rare yes. I emphasize RARE. I also advise server that if it comes burnt I must send it back. Some cooks don't speak English or don't care Regards

I would try them at home first. Sometimes our pouches have a mind of their own on some days with food. Good and bad.

I never have a problem with scallops, if they are cooked right. Over cooked is bad, because they get rubbery. Otherwise, I tolerate them with no problem.

Its really strange but my stupid body acts differently on different days. I now call certain days bad pouch days because my new tummy just doesn't tolerate much at all.

The good thing is - it makes it easier not to have to decide what to eat that day...
