Globetrotter 1,340 Posted June 8, 2010 I found a site that breaks down the cals, carbs, and Proteins of sushi sashime and assorted sushi-related foods - The Sushi FAQ - Sushi Calories and Nutritional Information I love sushi and it seems like the perfect Protein delivery system post-VSG: small, soft, and flavorful. I'll probably have to switch to sashime rather than sushi 'cuz I've heard the rice is not our friend post-op. If you feel daring, octopus sashime came in at 8 grams of Protein for a 1oz. serving! Miso Soup was pretty low at only 3 grams but I think if I doctor it up with some unflavored Protein powder it might be good for full liquid stage. =) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SParkle 4 Posted June 9, 2010 What a great link - thanks, I'll keep hold of that as I love sushi! Think I may need to swap to sashimi afterwards tho, but still very near to my heart. Kathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Globetrotter 1,340 Posted June 29, 2010 lillita, I freaked out too when I saw the cals but I think what they mean is the entire cigar roll before it is sliced up into pieces. Otherwise, eegad!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FromFlabToFab 268 Posted December 9, 2012 I was heartbroken about the no rice thing after surgery cuz sushi is my favorite food ever and my tummy is very picky and I just figured rice was one of those "never get to eat again foods"...but I Couldn't hold out anymore and at week 5 I gave in and risked my life for a bite of a sushi roll, and mmm mmm mmm was it delish. No problems with the rice what so ever even that early. I had all of two pieces and a bite of my friends hibachi grilled steak. I was full and on cloud 9 to know I can have my beloved sushi again.

fatnomo 102 Posted December 9, 2012 Yeah. I'm trying to find easy ways to make the Protein. 3 pieces of yellow tail sashimi (no rolls) should make it easy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
