Faster Way to Fat Loss | Trader Joe’s Shopping List

February 5, 2020 Comments : 4

I️’ve talked about my love of the Faster Way to Fat Loss program several times on the blog and I️ often share some of my favorite meal ideas over on IG. I️ followed the program really closely last year while pregnant with baby #3 and I️ felt good knowing I️ was eating a healthy, balanced diet – I️ rarely ever craved any junk food, which was definitely a change from my previous two pregnancies!

I️ also share my favorite Trader Joe’s finds on the regular, and I️ have a list of go-to items that I️ like to keep on hand for hitting my optimal macros each day. I️ decided I️’d take you guys along for my most recent TJ’s trip and share all of these favorites that are perfect for the FWTFL program (or just a balanced diet, in general!).

Trader Joe’s Favorites for the Faster Way to Fat Loss Program

I️ am going to break my Faster Way to Fat Loss faves down by category and you can also download a printable list to take with you on your next trip to Trader Joe’s!

Produce

Faster Way to Fat Loss Trader Joe's Shopping List

Spinach
Mushrooms
Grape Tomatoes – Loved slicing these and topping with balsamic vinegar, olive oil and cracked pepper
Avocados – Mondays + Tuesdays are ‘high fat/low carb’ days, so I️ would always incorporate at least one avocado each day to hit my macros!
Shredded Cabbage – Perfect for Egg Roll in a Bowl
Apples – I️’ll have an apple with almond butter for an afternoon snack sometimes
Shaved Brussels Sprouts – Saute these with some olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic and pepper!
Green Goddess Salad Dressing – This stuff is the BOMB and has great macros

Refrigerated

Vegan Basil Pesto – This was another great one for low carb day…I️’d top chicken with this pesto in the slow cooker for a delicious dinner.
Hummus
Chicken Sausage
Ground Turkey
Dairy-Free Cheese – It’s best to skip dairy when you’re strictly following the FWTFL program, and as someone who’s been dairy-free for several years, I️ can tell you that it’s possible to get used to dairy-free cheese!

Brown Rice – I️ always have a hard time hitting my carb goal on regular macro days, so I️ like to incorporate a healthy grain into each meal.
Riced Cauliflower – This is your lifeline on low-carb days – it can literally go in any recipe!
Cauliflower Gnocchi
Zucchini Spirals – Great in place of pasta for things like spaghetti, etc.
Chile Lime Chicken Burgers – One of my fave easy proteins for lunch!
Chopped Bell Pepper
Cauliflower Pizza Crust

      Aww, man, I️ know what you mean – I️ had to live without one for 2 years and it was rough! Haha! It’s 95mg per serving (which I️ believe is 2tbsp)!

Happy #internationalwomensday to all of us boss ba Happy #internationalwomensday to all of us boss babes, mamas, sisters, daughters, and friends 💗 I never really thought about the true value of empowering women until I had girls of my own and wanted them to know they can be anything they want to be and do anything they want to do in life. And now, as a small business owner, they are watching my day to day of running a business have even said they want to ‘make charcuterie boards’ when they grow up 🥰 Here’s to strong women, may we know them, may we be them, may we raise them ❤️
