I was doing okay lost around 19 lbs but I've been at a stall for around 3 weeks now and it's kinda rough..

On the other hand I'm dying for some sushi but I'm scared. Did anyone try sushi? I can handle half a quest bar and beef that's kinda soft so far..

They actually told me I should be able to eat anything 6 weeks out except raw veggies, they said it could take months.

I introduced foods very slowly - I would try a couple of (small) bites with each new food, then finish the meal with foods I had already incorporated.

As far as raw veggies, I'm 8 months out and still struggle with them. I know some can sit down to a big salad, but not me. I can eat about 1/4 cup of lettuce.

I live off salad (10 months out). I have a lump of meat and salad every day. Raw carrots, sweetcorn, beetroot, onions, lettuce, rocket. You name it, I eat it.

I guess it's a case of seeing what works for you, as McButterpants said, and slowly increase your list of 'okay' foods

I personally couldn't see much wrong with the raw fish portion of the sushi requirement. However, the rice and the wasabi might come back and bite you on the bum a bit.

Sadly it's all trial and error so early out. Whatever you do, just listen to your body and it shouldn't put you far wrong.

Good luck!
