Buylow7 got a reaction from carolina07 in I Want To Know What It Was Like Having Sushi For The First Time After Having The Sleeve!
Ji Jaclyn
I was so happy to see this forum. I am brand new to this site and start my pre-op diet on Friday. I am going out for sushi tonight and proably again on Thursday. I have been wondering the same thing, as you, for months. I never thought I would be taking this route, however, I am really am happy that I am. I will tell you I know of a few women who also loved sushi and were fine with it post-op, although the rice did not work for them. I eat mostly sashimi so I really dont care about the rice. I plan on posting here again once I start eating food again. Thanks for starting this forum.

I get it, it's terrifying!
Do it anyway. Do it anyway!
You will not regret doing it....you will regret NOT doing it!
Getting your stomach ripped out won't kill you, it will make you a badass!
It will give you back your life!

Not trying to be mean, but what about the horror stories of people who died from their obesity? Were those not scary enough to chicken you out of being morbidly obese for the rest of your life?
There are risks to everything we do. People die every day. A meteor could randomly fall out of the sky and hit your house while you're sleeping in your bed. Will that keep you from sleeping in your bed at night?
Don't give up!!! Make a list of what's important to you and why you wanted to have the surgery in the first place. Weigh the pros and cons. Take a serious look at where you will be in 5 years without having had the surgery and where you will be if you do have the surgery! IMO, the potential rewards far outweigh the risks.
Good luck with your decision!
