Can anyone still eat sushi? Not sashimi but actual rolls or hand rolls? I am banded on the 24th and am on the liquid diet so I am just thinking of all the foods I may never eat again.

Too early for me to know yet, but I certainly hope so. It is one of my favorite foods and it is pretty healthy for that matter. I have weird kids, they love sushi too and it would be said if we couldn’t still enjoy it as a family.

i eat sushi wkly. spicy tuna roll is my favorite & while i have to go slow (sticky rice can be a problem at times) - i don't have to worry about my food getting cold.:)

personally i like all rolls - i have had my sushi chef make me rolls out of cucumber which is a nice change up to the rice..

i see no reason you can't enjoy again!

I've had problems with rolls actually - it's the seaweed wrapper that gets me. I can do nigiri - the individual pieces of fish over rice - without a problem however, so I just opt for those.

It just depends on how tight you are, and everyone is different for some reason, so try it out!

I avoid the rice and the seaweed and I am fine. I tend to eat just the fish itself. I dont get to go out for sushi as much as I would like but when we do go, it takes us a while to eat anyways. I always get some hot saki to start with and take it slow from there. I might be able to eat a piece with rice on it but not much more at my current restriction level.

I'm eight months out and still have problems with sushi. I love it and would be a really easy Protein source for me but I can't get the rolls or the fish down, especially after a fill. But other people have had success so you might as well.

Good luck with your band!

      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.
