Do you have any problems with the sushi rolls? I got banded on February 13 and I love sushi rolls. I was not for sure if I was still going to be able to eat sushi.

Thanks!

I've not had many problems w/rice - Only once, and I think it was because I ate too fast. The place I frequent has alternatives to "rice" rolls - and I'm trying some of those each time, last night I tried a roll that was wrapped in a thin layer of cucumber - very tasty.

You should have NO problem w/sushi !!

Meals though, I would have to say the bbq chicken slow cooker style .. it is totally fab! I had to tweak the recipe to make it more health conscious (original recipe is whole skin on roasting bird) but in the end it only has 8g fat per serving ... its totally DELISH! It will make a great blended "smoothy" for the solid liquid stage... LOL

Would you share your recipe for the slow cooker bbq chicken (healthy of course :-) ) also....do you think that you could make this with roast beef?

Thanks.

At first I didn't have a problem with the sushi rolls but as I got more fills the sticky rice was too sticky for me. Also, the seaweed makes it hard to take small enough bites. The solution is that I get the rolls without rice and ask for soybean paper instead of seaweed. I have had no problems getting maki this way.

I have also been loving ceviche lately. They have it at asian restaurants and mexican ones. Its great because there are no carbs and it is packed with Protein and tastes very satisfying.

Thank you both for your responses. I will have to look out for the cucumber wrap or aks for the soybean paper without rice if I have problems once I get a fill. I love sushi so that makes me feel better that I will still be able to have sushi with just a few modifications. Thanks!

I'm such a rube that I have never even tried sushi. Of course, I live in the sticks so I'd probably have to drive three hours to get close to it if I DID want it!

Ceviche is a Mexican dish, I'd describe it as raw fish salsa, but that sounds really gross. What happens is the fish is "cooked" by the acids in lemon/lime juice. So it's usually like diced up fish, cilantro, onions, maybe peppers, or whatever else, with lime juice.. that's how I remember it in Mexico anyway. It is very good even if it sounds weird.

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
