I hear people talking about Trader Joe's all the time. Does anyone have any suggestions on tasty things to get from there?

It Looks like it pretty much like a Schwanns truck LOL!! In a store! Well I havn't been there in 15 years but they have alot of neat specialty foods there! But from what I remember it s expensive! If you are into Beer and wine there is also a larger than normal variety, not like Total wines or something, but its a pretty neat place

Our local TJs actually has decent pricing, and they have a lot of brands that are Earth-friendly or organic. However, since they refused to work with the public to get the government to require GMO food labeling, I won't be going back to shop with them.

I wanted to add some comments about trader joes....it is by far my favorite store and a great option for buying healthy food at a low price. I love do many of their products plus it's so nice to know you don't have to buy in bulk at costco to get a good deal!

I love Trader Joes... Look for precooked pot roast. Break it up, microwave for a few minutes and instant soft beef!

Is the pot roast frozen? I love their many different precooked sausages. Sweet apple chicken is my favorite.

      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.
