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

      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.
