Sashimi--what stage?



Recommended Posts

I'm craving Sashimi. (Since I can't have Sushi). I'm curious to know if it was hard to digest for the sleeve. I'm transitioning to soft foods after the puréed stage. I am assuming that you guys waited until you were released to a regular diet before trying. Also curious to know how many pieces you were able to eat. Thanks! :)

Yeah I waited until I was released to all foods,

In the beginning I only could eat 1 order (2 pieces) of the sake (salmon) sashimi..

But now at 6 months I can eat almost 2 orders.

Sashimi is basically raw salmon right? You may be able to eat this during purée stage. I started eating canned wild salmon from Trader Joes on my 3rd week (purée). In fact, if I recall correctly, I mostly ate canned salmon during the purée stage with Protein Shakes.< /p>

Yes sashimi is just the raw fish.. I waited until I was released to all foods because the texture is different from cooked. Its not flaky its more dense.

But the yummiest thing ever! I might add :D

Yes, rice is going to be high in carbs. Also, from what I understand, most sleevers don't do well with rice. I believe it swells in your stomach. :(

Sashimi was my first meal out postoperative. I waited until I was cleared for all solids. Went down just fine and was delish. Have had it since as well; all good.

I have not tried more than a few incidental pieces of rice yet. Somewhat craving a real spicy salmon roll but have not worked up the courage to try something with rice yet.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
