Had 8 small pieces of Sashimi tonight. Nothing else. It was wonderful and no stomach issues. Big load of Protein and good oils to boot. I'm 5 weeks out and so far have not had a single issue with anything I have eaten. Lost 46 pounds of the 130 I want to lose in that time. I keep waiting for the other shoe to fall and have some issue but so far this has been easy and a blessing of gigantic proportions!

I have been eating sushi rolls with a soy wrap instead of seaweed, I eat the small rolls and four pieces is my piggy max!!!! Like when it is just melting in my mouth. I have not had any problems and I saw on an earlier post about asking for less rice, will do. I have even been able to enjoy gyoza dumplings, never ever fried though! This is my fav thing to eat since the portion size is great and the nutritional value is pretty good. Sushi is a sleevers best friend......

I LOVE sushi and was really worried about having to give it up. I think I was around 12 weeks post op when i tried it again. it went down PERFECT!

My favorite sushi place knows about my surgery and they were very happy to accommodate my new eating style. One of my favorite things to have was a salmon hand roll. So i just asked to make it minus rice. I used to be a rice fanatic so i do miss it, but i havent even tried to have it yet. I am 5 months post op as of yesterday. The longer i can go without it, the better ;)

I also eat sashimi a lot. Fish is so good for you, and my sleeve loves it!

I can't tell you how happy this thread makes me. I went into this thinking that my sushi days were largely over.

I'm one-week post-op, so it's still a so-far-away-I-can't-see-it goal, but I will use some of these tips as soon as I am cleared to. Never considered, for example, just asking for less rice on the rolls.

I have had, in general, no real hunger or cravings for normal food since the surgery. But somehow now, at 7am, I suddenly want one piece of a spicy salmon roll. :)

I had this sashimi salad yesterday and it was incredibly good. I asked for the ginger dressing on the side and used almost none of it. It did have some ponzu sauce sprinkled on top so it really didn't need any dressing. I also had some miso Soup. I ate all of the sashimi and a few pieces of lettuce and less than 1/4 of a cup of the miso.

Did you have to chew the crap out of it? Or eat each piece in 2+ bites?

Several bites for each piece and I had to chew like crazy, but out was so worth it.

I get 2-3 slices of sashimi and asked my sushi chef to dice it up into bite size pieces and that made it so much easier to eat smaller bites.

      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.
