Eating Sushi with the lap band

[Jules Journey 0]

This is probably a silly question but I keep reading on various sites where people with the lapband are able to eat Sushi. How do you do this with having to take such small bites? I would love to have a California roll right now.

I haven't had any since my last fill, hmmmm now I want some. I kinda go real slow with the wrap. I have been able to enjoy it by using my fork to cut it up. Little messy but I still get my Sushi and I don't have a problem.

Tiny bites, and yeah, it falls apart when you eat it so slowly. I dont do that well with anything like that that you trditionally eat with your hands, as you tend to need to take large fast bites before it falls apart.

I have no trouble with Sushi, if I can I'll bite a peice in half, but usually you can't do that without making a mess of yourself, so the whole peice goes in like it used to, I just make extra sure I chew chew chew before swallowing, I have no trouble. Last time I ordered it with less rice, that worked out well. Can't eat nearly as much as I used to, but that's ok, at least I can still eat it!
