[sarahbethemails 68]

I'm thinking of ordering shashimi and I know lots of you et this early out has anyone tried the seaweed salad with it sounds good.

I'm two months post op and I had regular sushi rolls, but could only tolerate two-three pieces before I felt full.

Oh wow that's awesome but I don't think I can tolerate rice from what I hear you had gastric bypass or sleeve ?

How early out are you?

[FrankyG 1,450]

I am over 10 months out, and eat sashimi all the time and have been eating it since I was cleared for solids. Fish has always been a good source of Protein for me. I used to love the seaweed salad, but I don't want to waste the space in my sleeve so I usually go for all sashimi, but the seaweed wouldn't be bad for you I would think if you just had a little (seaweed is very high in nutrients and minerals and a good veggie to consume from what I remember). I will even eat a bit of sushi, but I pretty much discard 3/4 or better of the rice ball, and just use a tiny amount to soak up some soy sauce now.

Thanks everyone I am a lil over a month out.

sashimi is probably fine but think twice about the seaweed salad. It's chewy and might not be the best choice only a month out.

Depends on your surgery I suppose....

Rice was one of the first things I had to give up because it did not go well with my band...stuck too easily

The fish might be good as soon as you are cleared for solids. The rice and the seaweed is a bit soon.

I have already had sashimi (as well as a lot of fish in general) and it has gone swimmingly (much like the fish were before they landed on my plate). I have made a "commitment" to try real sushi come the holidays, when such meals become more frequent with the family, but my approach will be quite conservative.

Rice was not on my plan. Carbs were limited until I lost 75% of my weight.. I'm in maintenance. Rice seems to bloat me up. (TMI) I love California rolls. In a food processor i mixed crab meat,carrot cucumber and cilantro.To a chunky consistency, I mixed olive oil mayo to create a salad. I stuff it in a small avocado. its not shashimi. but I love sushi.

I've had lots of sashimi and it was fine. Sushi was fine too but the rice filled me up a lot faster so I prefer sashimi

I prefer sashimi too...I have had rolls but I am full after 3

This past saturday we went out for sushi for a friends birthday and I got the sashimi appetizer plus an a la carte order of Uni sashimi because I've always wanted to try it. The app was a perfect size, it was 8 pieces of sashimi and it was perfectly satisfying

That sounds awesome!! Great everyone!! Thank you. How about the seaweed salad have you put it on top of your shashimi it has a amazing taste on sushi so must be the same.
