Do you like sushi ?



Recommended Posts

Even before surgery I've been craving sushi, I've only had cooked sushi non of the raw stuff which I really want to try I was told by surgeon that I can eat whatever I want as long as it's low in fat and low carbs also no junk food and sodas and drinks full of sugar but sushi is healthy and high in Protein. My main concern about raw fish is getting sick from it so I was wondering what's your take on sushi ?

I previously ate a lot of sushi, all kinds but mostly raw fish, never been sick from it. But I stick to quality restaurants. I'm pre-op but wouldn't the rice cause pain?

Raw fish is great, has never given me a problem either pre op or post op, but stay away from the rice.

I only have sashimi, which is raw fish - no rice. Or sushi specialty rolls that are wrapped in cucumber slices or seaweed instead of rice.

although we are supposed to avoid the rice, I've eaten normal sushi twice in the past 6 months. I had the same fears as you did. I did just fine but I stopped myself after 2 pieces because I knew the rice would start expanding as it sits in my stomach. So I would suggest eating off of a friends plate, rather than getting your own roll!

I don't like sushi. I love it! My first date with my wife was to sushi, the night of our wedding, sushi, 1st anniversary and about 1/2 of our anniversaries. I love a good dead raw fish!

I was a bigtime lover of sushi before wls......and I still enjoy it on occasion now.

I"m not a big fan of rice anymore, though.

I'm 5 weeks post op and I'm practically living off salmon sashimi. It tastes better to me than ANYTHING else :)

I love sushi. My favorite restaurant will leave off all or most of the rice. If I go somewhere other than my favorite, I order sashimi or Kani salad. If I'm plate surfing off others, I just eat the insides. :)

I have been thinking about sushi ???? as it's one of my favourite foods. I'm only 2 weeks post op, so it's a no go at the moment. However I'm thinking miso Soup might be okay..although the sodium levels might be a little high.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      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
