March 27, 20179 yr I'm 5 months post op and I don't eat rice. It takes up all the room for protein. I think you can have sushi once you've transitioned to full food. Just know that you might only be able to eat one or two pieces.
March 28, 20179 yr I'm just over 4 months and had sushi for the first time the other day. I could only eat 2 pcs comfortably. I just made sure to chew thoroughly, as always. I consider it a treat since most of the time, protein comes first.
March 28, 20179 yr I ate sushi (actually sashimi....no rice!), at 4 weeks post op. But please check with your surgeon first! I was allowed to because sashimi is so soft. It goes down super easy and is super healthy. Just check with the doc first. :-) I love me some good sushi. I have it at least once a week, I just dont eat the rice.
March 30, 20179 yr I'm been eat sushi two months after surgery I have careful with rice but I love eat whether with any types of sushi I eat not too much for rice just few if you eat 2 will be fine!

March 31, 20179 yr I wish I liked Sashimi, truth be told the raw part scares me so I've never tried. lol! I guess what I should say is "I wish I wasn't so afraid of raw fish that I would try Sashimi". lol!
April 1, 20179 yr I had tuna and salmon nigiri for dinner (I'm a few days into being cleared for all foods, six weeks out on Wednesday). It was only 2.5 pieces (3rd piece no rice, just fish), but it all settled well and tasted good.
April 1, 20179 yr Instead of the normal rolls, look to see if the sushi chef can make you a protein roll which is just a roll without rice...usually wrapped with soy paper, seaweed, or thin long slices of cucumber. If they don't offer a protein roll on the menu, most sushi chefs will gladly make you a custom roll!
April 7, 20179 yr Sashimi was one of my favorite sources of protein when I was first back on solid foods. I stay away from rice completely, but still have sashimi quite often. Most of the sushi "rolls" typically have some sugar component in the the sauces in addition to the rice so you need to watch for that as it will most likely be astray from your post-op diet provided by your surgeon/NUT.
April 7, 20179 yr I love sashimi too. I would prefer a sushi roll but I don't go thereSent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app
