SolracSpree 133 Posted August 9, 2013 I each sushi fine. California rolls are 43 cal a piece 4-6 pieces fills me up. And as far as string cheese I like Sargento but the Babybel cheese has fewer calories and its fun to open 5 debee, Sharpie, kll724 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B-52 7,113 Posted August 9, 2013 Are you talking calories as in dieting? Or what is tolerated by the band? 2 rmalikone and SashaWLS reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KAATNS 1,473 Posted August 9, 2013 Weight Watchers string cheese has 50 calories. I have a hard time with sushi unless I remove the seaweed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Terry Poperszky 2,784 Posted August 9, 2013 I like the flavor of Babybel light better than sting cheese, and yes I can eat sushi, but YMMV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dawalsh 919 Posted August 9, 2013 Are you talking calories as in dieting? Or what is tolerated by the band? That's what I like about you B-52, you're so thorough with each inquiry. I would have thought that as a band tolerance question but the fact that a calorie count on the sushi was mentioned it could have been a caloric diet inquiry. Personally speaking, I love sushi but cannot tolerate white rice related to the band. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kll724 3,055 Posted August 9, 2013 Don't eat sushi, but had no trouble tolerating string cheese. Now, don't eat it due to lactose intolerance. But, as someone else said, Babybel is good so is Sargento. i don't do low-fat/no fat due to the higher sugar content. 1 MsGal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
endingyoyo 28 Posted August 9, 2013 cheese at room temperature tastes so much better that cold cheese, especially with sting cheese and babybel. You could also put it in the microwave for a few seconds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HotButterFly 981 Posted August 9, 2013 Fat free, reduced fat, & low fat are foods that should never enter you body (in my humble opinion). Why? Full fat foods are less processed and have less industrially engineered ingredients/chemicals. If you're making smart choices and working with the band, I don't think you should worry about those products. 1 SashaWLS reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2012 359 Posted August 9, 2013 I just had Sashimi for dinner tonight and it went fine, it easier to chew, high Protein and you avoid the sticky rice. I did have sticky rice on the side, but after 8 pieces of Sashimi, I only ate about 3 tablespoons before I hit my limit. I have eaten Sushi with no problems, but the rice fills you up fast and can cause people problems pretty easily. Kroger has a colby and mozarella combo string cheese that is really good.

HotButterFly 981 Posted August 10, 2013 ????? Question I'm going to be starting mushies and there is sum meal someone suggested as a lazana bowl its cottage cheese Pasta sauce mozzarella and parm is th as t safe any sugestions on any others r is this ok I used to make something similar when I lost 40# with Atkins. I called it PIM, or, pizza in a mug... Except I used ricotta and not cottage. Mozzarella cheese can be real chewy.... I would wait till the "normal" phase. 1 aracelis0787 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luka Beth 78 Posted August 11, 2013 I made lasagna cups as part of my post op using small ramekins. 1 cup low fat/fat free cottage cheese 1 cup low fat/fat free ricotta cheese 1 egg beaten 1/2 cup parmesan cheese Mix it all together and divide into sprayed ramekins. It should make about 8 of them. Top with a little bit of your favorite marinara and bake at 350 for about 30 mins. 2 kphoping and aracelis0787 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
