Are you on regular food or soft food? I know they have lots of seafood at Japanese places. A baked or broiled fish? Or if you like sushi you could get some sashimi

With Japanese food, its easy to stick to some broiled fish or some sashimi..along with some steamed veggies..i would stay away from broccoli as its gas causing. Even something like a miso Soup might be good..

I did very well with the stir fried veggies and beef.. The only really great tip I have is stay away from the rice. It still kills me!! Have fun!

Yum!! I love sushi! Can't wait to have it, But I still have to wait a few more months!

I think a stir fry with some beef or chicken would be bomb! That sounds good! Now I want Japanese food! :P

Well...I tried steamed shu mai (the little shrimp dumplings) and learned that 4 is my limit - after eating 5 and having to excuse myself to run to the ladies room! Still all trial and error. I only got to try one piece of the salmon dish I ordered - had cucumber and avocado with a yummy ginger dressing - no rice. Would stick with that next time. Thanks for the advice all!!

OMG ! I wish I seen this before you left :P

In the first couple of months I could only eat 1

Order of salmon sashimi..

It's funny because at 6 months I just now ate some shumai at a Chinese place this weekendI think the wrappings on the dumplings would be the cause of your troubles. :)

Suffice to say - lesson learned! Would definitely stick with just the fish next time!! :)

What a lesson! Hehehe... I've been one of the lucky ones I've never thrown up, and to have to do it at a restaurant :o

Oh well at least you don't have to count it on your daily totals!

I should say there was I few times in the beginning that I wish I could of thrown up! :P

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
