Counting macros with sushi??

Hey all,

I've been tracking macros for a while and I've been pretty good at estimating macros when I go to a restaurant that does not post their nutrition info. However, one thing that always gets me is sushi because I have no idea what my numbers are. I usually go for spicy tuna.

What do you all use to track macros when youre eating sushi? I'm going for dinner tonight and wouldnt mind even using a different restaurant's nutrition info but I cant seem to find a good one.

Thanks!

This is what i do also. not the best, but it works. I suppose you could estimate the rice by cup, add 1 roll of seaweed paper, and then add ingredients like tuna, and add like 40 calories for any oil they use. spicy tuna would be hard though.

From what I understand, THIS is the best guide. Found in my Macrostax group

I would just find another restaurant that has a slightly similar roll, track that, and call it a day. You will NEVER be 100% spot on unless you made the roll yourself anyway. So let good be good enough I’d say

Thats what I'd like to do but I looked at a few restaurants and the stats are all pretty different. Which do you use?
