I'm craving Sashimi. (Since I can't have Sushi). I'm curious to know if it was hard to digest for the sleeve. I'm transitioning to soft foods after the puréed stage. I am assuming that you guys waited until you were released to a regular diet before trying. Also curious to know how many pieces you were able to eat. Thanks!

Yeah I waited until I was released to all foods,

In the beginning I only could eat 1 order (2 pieces) of the sake (salmon) sashimi..

But now at 6 months I can eat almost 2 orders.

Thanks! Salmon is my favorite!

Sashimi is basically raw salmon right? You may be able to eat this during purée stage. I started eating canned wild salmon from Trader Joes on my 3rd week (purée). In fact, if I recall correctly, I mostly ate canned salmon during the purée stage with protein shakes.

Yes sashimi is just the raw fish.. I waited until I was released to all foods because the texture is different from cooked. Its not flaky its more dense.

But the yummiest thing ever! I might add

I have been eating it since week 4-5. I also ea t the skinny rolls from wegmans. No rice in them

When can we have sushi?!

When can we have sushi?!

I'm guessing because of the rice..carbs. I was only told specifics for weeks 1-8 so far

Yes, rice is going to be high in carbs. Also, from what I understand, most sleevers don't do well with rice. I believe it swells in your stomach.

Sashimi was my first meal out postoperative. I waited until I was cleared for all solids. Went down just fine and was delish. Have had it since as well; all good.

I have not tried more than a few incidental pieces of rice yet. Somewhat craving a real spicy salmon roll but have not worked up the courage to try something with rice yet.
