I work at a Costco... I know that the food court has a binder with all the nutritional info in it.. so I'd assume the deli does too. You can call and ask or knock on their window next time you are in. If they don't know.. you should be able to go to Costco.com and send a comment and get a response that way. Let me know if any of these methods help. (I wish they'd just put the stats on the packaging).

They once told me that there is a number on the sticker, and you can call costco and ask for the nutritional stats on the product using that code.

And if you find out, please post a reply because I have been eyeing them for a while now and am just too lazy to do it, LOL

On MFP, it says 194 calories for 4 oz.

Well, after about 6 phone calls, i had NO luck! even called corporate! They said that since they change things out in the deli so frequently they do not usually keep those stats on hand! WTH??

Any way, I'm just going to go with how many shrimps I'm eating and counts for about 1/2 tsp of olive oil. the rest is just seasonings so I think they are free foods anyway! that will at least give me an idea of the Protein and the calories!

Why not go with what it says on My Fitness Pal? Or is 194 richer than you bargained for?

Actually didn't know what the MFP was! I will go with that, it is way low, did it have the Protein count, I pretty much don't count the calories too much, I'm trying to get my Protein up! so if it is 194 for 4 oz, and i am only eating 2.5 oz per sitting, i'm really good!

sorry you had to make so many calls... I would have thought they would have been more helpful. Kind of disappointed :( Glad there is something comperable on mfp.

thank you Susanne, that is just what i was looking for! i can plop that in on my Body Media page and it will do the math for me! I use the Body Media food diary so that when I sync my arm band, it shows my how many calories i burned and ate in the same day! I just have to get more diligent at doing it!!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
