Being dragged to Niagara next weekend and while the referee**** the ice I will be shopping states side.

suggestions on items to grab and places to go?

i am assuming premier clear and different protein flavours from Sams club if I print out a one day shopping coupon for $10.

Anything else?

They have some great yogurts not available here. I have not shopped there for awhile but I loved it last time I went.

There are others on the forum that I am sure will tell you more things.

Are the salt and vinegar almonds also at sams club?

What stage of the process are we allowed these based on your experience?

Don't know. You should be able to get them at any grocery store. I was eating nuts somewhere around 3 months post op.

I have posted this before and I'm two years post-op, so you might not be able to have everything depending on what stage you are at.

**After writing out what I bought I do tend to go a bit nuts -- some things I feel are too carby and definitely would not have eaten them in my first year post-op.

Walmart:

Sliced turkey pepperoni (pizza style)
Turkey pepperoni bites
Turkey pepperoni sticks
Great Value Greek Yogurt (90 calories)
Light n' Fit Greek Yogurt (80 calories)
Yoplait Greek Yogurt (100 calories)
Oikos Triple Greek Yogurt
SF pudding in chocolate-vanilla swirl (fridge section)
HF smoked turkey sausage (fridge section)
Bacon jerky
Turkey cheddar hot dogs (fridge section)
Arnold's thins - everything and honey wheat flavour (100 calories each)
Mio water enhancer - orange vanilla, orange tangerine

Recently I have also found 100 calorie packs of cocoa almonds. I like that they are pre-portioned.
