luluc 6 Posted March 3, 2008 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 !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JackieL 0 Posted March 3, 2008 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 Pix 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.

KarenG. 0 Posted March 3, 2008 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! 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bergdorfblonde 3 Posted March 3, 2008 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gibson 7 Posted March 3, 2008 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

snogirl 0 Posted March 4, 2008 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.
