Anyone else from Canada
« on: January 28, 2012, 09:01:06 AM »
Hi Guys
Just wondering if anyone else here is from Canada. I find the USA has alot more options for special low carb/no sugar groceries that I can't find here i.e these sugar and carb control yogurts I keep seeing everyone talking about. I live 2.5 hours from the border so I CAN take a trip and stalk up, its just not always convienent.

Hi there ES15.  Yes, I am the token Canadian, but there are a few more here as well.  I live in the Niagara Region in Southern Ontario, very close to the US border and still find most of what I need here in Canada.  My favourite place to shop is the Low Carb Grocery in Markham.  Check out their website www.lowcarbgrocery.com.  Mostly everything mentioned on this forum is available there (except for yogurt).  Shipping is $7.99 unless your order is over $100 then it's free.  They are excellent to deal with.  Everything else I find in my local grocery stores and health food store.  If you need help with anything, just ask.  It has been almost 1 year since I reached my goal weight.  Once you get in the swing of things you will love this program and all of the forum members.  So good luck on your journey to a new you!!
