See, this is all very helpful, because now I'll have a better idea of what I can buy there and what I should bring with. I am pretty sure I can stuff enough Splenda packets in my bag to last me, but things like Atkins Shake mix ($20 USD) here it sounds like I can get that at GNC. I will also DEFINATELY pack some Carbolite bars, and maybe even have mom send me some halfway through the trip. If there's one thing I know, it's that CARBOLITE BARS are to credit for a large proportion of my success so far. I mean, when you can have a square of that sinfully rich and creamy chocolate anytime you want, the "dieting" pressure is off!

This can't be a diet! It tastes too good!

Thanks a bunch!
