I miss Sushi.... :(



Recommended Posts

So I just got on to liking Sushi and prior to my last fill, was stillable to eat it. But now, it is rather difficult. I really miss it. :thumbup:

I think they should make little mini-bite-sized cali and tuna rolls! :eek:

Merry xmas all.

Oh, I know. I go still for the saki and two bites of sushi. Not the rolls or the rice, just the fish. I can eat about 2-4 pieces of sushi, depending on their size.

Sushi is one of my favorite foods! I had 1 piece before my first fill, and it hurt my stomach. Haven't had it since. I miss it too!

wow that's very unfortunate.

i eat it regularly - mostly sashimi, as the sticky rice can be an issues sometimes....

there are rolls that can be made w/seaweed-cucumber. hubby has had our sushi place make a spicy tuna roll wrapped in a thin slice of cucumber...very tasty!!!

I can only eat one or two pieces of a roll, and I have to remove the black seaweed stuff, but other than that I'm good to go. Occasionally, the rice is a bit TOO sticky, so I just add some of that spicey pink sauce and I do just fine.

lol....funny that I seen this thread. I started my pre op diet today (liquids) and last saturday I made the whole family go out and eat japanese. I too love sushi and I thought it would probably be intolerable with the band. Glad to know that some of you can tolerate it.....THATS GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!

I miss it, too! I'm scared to try it because of the rice, though. I haven't eaten any form of rice since my surgery.

I eat it banded but have to pick off the sticky rice. Other than that, I still love it (but can't haven't again for a while due to pregnancy).

I will definitely be going out for sushi once the baby is here, lol.

I am glad to know that Sushi can be eaten. I can actually tolerate it pretty well. I was always scared of the raw due to potential food poision and vomiting. I know it can happen.....but is the risk low? Since being banded, I eat the non-raw rolls only....

A huge misconceptions is that sushi is raw fish. This is not true at all! You can get it either cooked or non. I am very pleased to know I can eat sushi again. I used to work at a teppenyaki restaurant and ate Japanese food including sushi everyday! I miss it!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
