I'm sure it's probably more carbs that you would normally want, but I had sushi at 6 weeks out and it didn't slow my weight loss or disagree with me. I was only able to eat 1 and a half pieces of a seared ahi roll before I was quite full. I wouldn't make it a habit in the losing stage, but if you have a craving go for it.

The rice does not sit well with me - too sticky and starchy. Otherwise, it is quite healthy. I eat sashimi or special rolls, but I pick out the inside and leave the rice on the plate. Some places make "protein rolls" that are wrapped in cucumber slices - no rice. They are awesome!!!

I eat whatever I want whenever I want. I can't even eat alot so I stay around 500 to 800 calories a day. I hate eating anything that isn't mushy, but would love a california roll. I just wouldn't want to buy more than three small ones because it would be a waste. I only buy things that last and reheat well. Even if I am not eating the raw sushi I still feel funny eating things a few days after.

Sashimi is great, pure protien, and no carbs. It is nothing but fish.

Rolls, sushi has rice, made of simple short-chain carbohydrates that spike blood sugars and energy, then crash.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
