Dfw - Trader Joe's



Recommended Posts

For anyone living in the Dallas/Ft. Worth arae, I just found out they are opening Trader Joe's out here. Check out their website to see of there is one coming near you.

For anyone who is a TJ shopper, what do you recommend I check out when the store in my are opens soon? I've heard wonderful stuff about TJ and have always been jealous that I didn't have one in my area. Now, they are opening one and I can't wait to check it out. Tell me what you buy from there so I can start making my list.

LOVE LOVE LOVE Trader Joes. Simply would not move anywhere without it. Personally I love the mid level grade wine selection for my non oenophile friends, but I digress. I assume you are talking food?

Almost everything I purchase there is delicious. During soft phase I ate egg salad there with some spice to it. Only 60 calories a serving and it tasted decent. Still eat it today. Just take your diets list with you shopping and you will have a great time. They have pregrilled chicken strips for those of us too busy to cook our own. My excuse is I spent too much time at the gym.

Yippee for you. Love from - a TJ addict

TJs is our primary grocery store. They always have samples going, so be sure to check them out. It is always something interesting. Things I wouldn't normally think to make or buy.

We buy all the nitrate free deli meats and hot dogs. Whole wheat pastas, Peanut Butter, chicken nuggets ... you name it. You can't go wrong there.

I agree with PDXman - can't go wrong - try practically everything!! Their Pasta sauces and salad dressings. Frozen foods like turkey burgers, fish, all their vegetables. Great selection of teas. Cheeses, yogurt. Oh, in the cracker family - corn tortilla flat bread (salted sesame). They're awesome for so many uses.

The store closest to me will be the Plano one. Rumor is it is due to open September 7th. It seems like a long wait but I'm sure it will be here before I know it.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
