Looking for cooler bag recommendations



Recommended Posts

I'm looking for recommendations for cooler bags for meal prep. I have found several on Amazon and I am confused. I live in Arizona so I need to make sure the stuff stays cool. Anyone have ones they love?? Thanks!

I have a Jaxx fitpack and its great. I live in Qatar and it's about 105 outside now. I work in a cooled building but typically keep it on my desk throughout the day and the things i don't eat are still cold when I get home. When I go on outings and leave the bag in the HOT car, I use two icepacks and so far, this has performed well for me.

They have a ton on the website.

I also use a insulated thermos thats keeps things at almost the same temp throughout the day. Never have a problem with wanting cold Water as long as you keep the top closed when you aren't using it.

I have a buddy that swears by Yetti products but I've never used them.

I have a yeti mug and it totally works to keep everything wicked cold for hours. I'm fascinated by these jax bags now. Gotta go shop!

I use this lunch bag from PackIt. Put it in the freezer at night, cooling gel built in. Keeps stuff cold all day - even if I don't eat it, yogurt is still cold when I get home. I use this when I go to the office twice a week. (Other days I work from home.)

I love my Yeti- definitely worth the money. Keeps ice from 7am when I leave for work until well after 7pm.

I'm definitely interested in that Jaxx bag- I've heard good things about it from others as well.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
