We are traveling to Jamaica next week, and I am trying to think of easy things that we can pack in our luggage for meals when we are in transit or at the resort and don't want to spend an arm and a leg at the restaurants.

I was thinking some Quest bars, some Protein shake packets. Anything else? What travels well?

We are staying on a resort for a work trip and there is no way to get off of the resort for a grocery store. It is all inclusive, so I guess room service could help, but I am not sure. There are some planned meals/dinners and Breakfast is served everyday.

You didn't mention how far out you are, but at almost 4 months out, I carry beef Jerky, mixed nuts, Oh Yeah Bars, and Protein powder. If it is all inclusive, all food at restaurant should be included as well as drinks. Most resorts have a commissary as well, where you can buy snack foods like dried fruit, yogurt, etc.

What resort are you staying at? I've stayed at several, I might be able to give you insight on the availability.

You could also take some protein chips. I order mine from www.mybariatricpantry.com and they are pretty good!

Jif to-go cups. They have 2 tbl of peanut butter, low sugar, and 6 g of protein. PB2 peanut butter powder is easy to carry and you just mix with water to reconstitute. Non-refrigerated silken tofu is shelf stable. Have a wonderful vacation

How close to allowed weight do you plan to pack?

Also - email and ask to speak to your concierge and let them know you have a food based allergy and give them a list of things that will accommodate your diet. BINGO...sorry i don't fib much but people pay attention when you say "allergy" vs. "I choose", and this is vaycay after all - they are there to serve and accommodate you!
