Sushi Post-band



Recommended Posts

I have pretty good restriction right now and no problems with sushi other than 3 of them filling me up! :thumbup:

It all depends on the person, I guess.

I love sushi! Rice is a major problem for me though. So I just stick with the sashimi and a little bit of soy sauce and I'm good to go! Although I can probably get by with one California roll, but more rice than that, and boy do I pay!

Mmm...now I want Sushi for lunch ;-)

I haven't tried sushi yet, though I've wanted to, but my husband doesn't want to go quite yet. I've tried rice and havne't had a problem. I think the only foods I've had any issues with is scrambled eggs and really dry chicken. And I just don't think I chewed well enough. I didn't PB or anything, but it just felt like a bowling ball going down my esophagus. I still eat them just in different ways.

i would be reluctant to eat raw fish (sashimi), but maybe a california roll (made with avocado, crab stick or crab salad) sounds like it would go down okay.

Yes fish is awesome for you but just remember, it's so individualized. Just be careful your first time....and good luck with it!

If you ever come to KY we'll go have ourselves a Playboy roll!! It has eel and is soooo yummy!!!

Let us know how it goes!!!

13 days, you must be sooo excited!!

I love Japanese food and eat it aproximately every 1 or 2 weeks. I find if I begin my meal with a miso Soup or tea I am warmed up and find eating sushi much easier. I avoid the maki rolls since the rice gives me a hard time. The nuri (seweed is impossible). If I do have a piece I just open it and eat the middle. I mostly stick to shashimi (yummi and no problem to eat). Sushi I pick the fish off of and leave the rice. sometimes I do eat some rice but find it does not go down so well. I usually feel better if I do not eat it. I LOVE shashimi.

      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.
