I really like Sushi/Sashimi too. I've had it several times since surgery. I usually share with friends and have a couple of rolls or pieces with rice and then some sashimi. I don't eat all the rice on the regular sushi though or I wouldn't have room for anything else. Cooked items I've had include ebi (steamed shrimp), spider (soft shelled crab), tempura shrimp roll, and eel. The tempura shrimp and crab are the only breaded/fried things I've had since being sleeved but since they are sliced very small the calorie load is acceptable to me. Enjoy your birthday!

I had sushi last night for dinner. I ate about 1/3 a bowl of egg drop Soup first, then I had a Philadelphia roll with light rice. It was cut in to 6 pieces & I was able to eat all 6 pieces exactly as I ate them before. I just picked it up, dipped it in the wasabi soy sauce & YUM! I just chewed well, but I tolerated it without any issue. I LOVE that my bill was $13 & I also paid for my son's kid meal in that!!

Hey UXgrrl,

First happy birthday! I went to sushi with my daughter on Wednesday. We ordered the sushi with light brown rice. Love spicy tuna. Then we used chopsticks and ate the middle without the seaweed or much rice so we were able to eat two different rolls she has lap band. Also try cucumber salad, includes crab or shrimp generally. It was awesome. My daughter said she goes to one place where they will make sushi without rice, but darn I am having brain fade and do not recall the name of the place. Maybe just ask?

Have fun.

I have heard of people ordering it without rice. I just prefer to order it as is and eat a smaller amount.

I get a shrimp roll with no cucumber since it is raw. So, it is shrimp and avocado only. I can generally eat two pieces at a time.

Good luck!

My typical order: Hamachi sashimi (slices of raw Yellowtail) and/or Sake sashimi (raw Salmon) with Wakame (seaweed salad). I love raw fish, so this might be too fishy for some. It's 100% Protein and greens, with a bit of sesame oil and seeds. Very good for you. I may order Miso Soup as well if I'm still hungry. I can't do the rice much anymore - fills me up too fast and the carb to protein ration for the meal can't be done on a regular basis. This order is something I can do frequently and not botch my diet.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
