Are salmon patties healthy for weight loss?

I'm looking for healthy meal options that are also easy to prepare. Saw a recipe for salmon patties, but I want to know if they are a good choice if I'm trying to lose weight.

Fish has very good natural oils that keep the joints healthy and body flexible. If you pan-fry the salmon patties with very little cold-pressed oil, it is a clean source of nourishment. It keeps the mind calm and body light.

To be honest, fresh salmon in India is extremely expensive and can ruin your monthly budget. Local fish like surmai or even simple eggs give the exact same protein benefits at one-tenth of the price. Save your money for regular health checkups instead.

I read so much about fish having heavy metals, but honestly, salmon is usually considered very safe and great for protein. Just make sure they aren't deep-fried because that defeats the whole purpose. Don't worry, you got this!

I completely understand how stressful it is to constantly worry about what to eat for weight loss without ruining your health. Salmon patties are actually really safe and high in protein, which helped me feel full. You are doing great, just take it one step at a time.

They can be very healthy, but check what binder is used to make the patties. If they use a lot of white flour or breadcrumbs, it will raise blood sugar and stall weight loss. Use oats or chickpea flour for binding instead.
