US Shopping Must Haves...

Hey! We're heading to Michigan for the weekend! Just wondering what the must have items for everyday life after WLS? I know the usuals of Crystal lite, SF syrups, SF chipits, and SF puddings. Just wondering if there is anything else in particular that I should be looking for? Thanks in advance for your suggestions!!

I have seen and even saved some good lists but I have no clue as to how to repost but if you search the site they come up  and by the way have a great weekend

sugar free chocolate syrup ( I use on yogurt and for dipping fresh fruit in, sugar free pancake syrup (for my protein pancakes) are my 2 biggies- the rest I seem to be able to find here without any problem...

Hi there

I saw your reply regarding U.S. items and you mention protein pancakes. I am interested in the recipe - can you provide or direct me to a site where I can get the recipe. Thanks very much.

Protein pancakes

1/3 c oats

1/3 c boiling water

1 egg

1 scoop protein powder-vanilla

1 tsp cinnamon

1/3- 1/2 c mixed fruit

cover oats with boiling water and let sit for 1-2 min.

add the rest of the ingredients and fry using pam

makes 2 5-6 " diameter pancakes and i eat 1/2 of one for breaky- so this makes enough for 4 breakfasts

NB the men in my life hate the smell of them frying- I however have no problem with them.

you an also add mixed fruit on top of the pancake if you like

 a new recipe for me is

Banana Protein pancake

1 mashed ripe banana

2 eggs

1 scoop protein powder

mix and fry- makes 6 and I eat 2 per breaky.

 hope you enjoy!!
