My bestie had hers last November and she eats sushi. It isnt whether or not you can, it is will you want to. Remember tastes change, what you enjoyed in the old body may not be enjoyed in the new body.

You will eventually be able to eat just about everything..give it some time.  At almost
7 months out, I'm just tolerating most all meats and very small amounts of rice. I can
eat most anything now and had my very first "steak".  You'll get there....be patient. 
Good luck!

YES!!!

I cant do the big rolls anymore cause its just too much rice. I can only do one bite, but shashimi, calimari salad, seaweed salad and the small rolls...with the seaweed on the outside...those are ok for me. YUM!!

I was able to eat true sushi, mealing with rice, at 8 weeks.  Rice has not bothered me -- some people can't tolerate it.  As soon as my plan allowed, I think it was around 4 weeks, I started eating sushimi tuna, which went down great.  Raw tuna, which tastes like candy, has almost no calories and tons of protein.

Like many people, I have been avoiding sushi products from Japan since the Fukushima disaster.  It is a shame -- the best sushi fish and rice come from Japan...

My father had RNY in 2008...and sushi is his favorite & always was. I'm not exactly sure when he started to eat it again....but I do know he eats it all the time!

I started eating sushi at about 8 weeks out without the rice. We have several sushi restaurants that make "riceless" rolls (they have cucumber or crab on the outside) and they are so good!! I am 4.5 months out now and I can eat the regular sushi with rice, but I usually opt for sashimi or the hand roll (all tuna, high in protein) because I'll only eat 3 pieces of a regular sized roll.

I know at three weeks it seems you'll never have anything you want again, but truthfully by three months out I could eat almost anything I wanted in small quantities. I don't eat fried food or pasta; and I haven't tried stuff like raw broccoli and cauliflower, but I've been eating salads and most meats for weeks. You will get there!!
