  • I had sushi last week (2 months) and I had no problems at all, miso Soup is really great. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  • I had sashimi at about 4 weeks. I'm a full year out and still find sushi rice is not my friend. It expands a lot once in the stomach and puts a quick end to a good meal. I love a sushi place that does

I think I probably first had sushi 2 months out. If you're doing sashimi (sushi fish with no rice) you might be able to do it sooner--don't force it down if it doesn't feel right though. Just gotta be careful because a lot of Americanized rolls have a ton of extra ingredients in them that load on calories, sashimi will be your best bet until you can stomach rice (may be a few months, I'm just now at 6 months getting to the point where it doesn't hurt to eat rice) and then when you can have rice you'll want to stick to simple rolls with only 2 or 3 ingredients.

Congratulations on surgery!

What does your doctor/nut say? They're the best ones to ask.

As others have mentioned, probably sashimi (raw fish) is a better bet than sushi (rice + whatever) since I doubt very much that rice is on your meal plan this early out. A lot of people on these boards have a real problem with rice, even months (or longer) after their surgery.

I had at 3 or 4 weeks out rolls made with smoked salmon, cream cheese and avocado, no rice. No issues. Although it was totally weird just eating one order when I used to eat 4 or 5! But it was all I could eat! Amazing.

I had sashimi at about 4 weeks. I'm a full year out and still find sushi rice is not my friend. It expands a lot once in the stomach and puts a quick end to a good meal. I love a sushi place that does a version of palapala. That's tuna and avocado chunks in a rice wine vinegar sauce (usually served as an appetizer.) The amount is meal sized for a sleever, and there is no rice to bog down a great tasting Protein source!!

Rice tends to swell in the sleeve so it really depends on whether you can tolerate it. I recommend eating very very slowly and in very small quantities.
