Omg Urgent Situation!!!!!please Help!

[Tazzi]

Ok just found out thanks to another fabulous person off this site that i probably can't take my sole source sachets to Australia. Im going to find out if i can take lactose free ones instead and cope on 3 flavours but WHAT IF I CANT?????????

Ill HAVE TO EAT!!! OK huge panic. What do i do? if i have to eat what do i eat to stop me putting on weight. When you come off SS you're supposed to put on a little as your body gets used to your new heathy diet but i really cant afford to......its my best friends wedding and the dress is fitted completely. If i put on a pound it wont fit............... HELP!!!

When are you going???

It would be advisable to maybe be on the 1000 or 1200 before you go which will allow more flexibility whilst your away.
You need to have a chat with your CDC and see what they advise.

why cant you take your sachets?

 

[Tazzi]

Apparently the Oz customs wont allow them in because they contain skimmed milk powder and there has been the foot and mouth outbreak recently.
I go on the 30th of November and the wedding is the 14th December Ahhhhh.

can you not take tetras. they are sealed. i remember going abroad but was allowed to carry the cartons of ready made baby milk ... same kind of thing. you can always check with the airline or the austrailian embassy . products that have been sealed are then sterilised so dont really pose a threat !
if not you will have to eat chicken and green salad. cottage cheese.... maybe have alook at the plans for 790 and 1000 just to get some ideas.

I am taking my cambridge books in case of an emergency i will stick to chick, white fish and some salady things but still having a stress.

Take some comfort in the fact it will be roasting so you wont be eating too much anyways!

Lol sorry for my awful advice....:S

 

[Tazzi]

Maybe....but i lived there my whole live and still grew to this size so i cant confirm that.....plus im going to a wedding, 2 birthdays, my 21st and christmas parties. Damn stupid customs.

damn

i have taken cambridge shakes and soups into aussie before
NOT tetras definitely
but soups and shakes were allowed in back in february - sydney airport

 

[JEM]

Post them to Australia before you go (allow about a week) and you should be fine

 

[Tazzi]

K i have rung Australian customs and anything with milk products like skim milk powder and sodium something or other will be confiscated.....it also means that you wont be able to post these items into the country.
So no shakes or soups.
I asked about the lactose free but i am going to play it safe. My grandma has tracked down a Cambridge Counsillor in Perth and she has agreed to supply me with my original signed doctors certificate as my BMI is still quite high. So i can take some shakes on the plan and have one just before i leave the airport and pick up shakes from this lady the day i arrive.
As long as i see her while im there and agree to get my blood pressure checked on the monday.
Thank god....huge stress averted......now just mini stress untill i actually secure my hands on said shakes.
