Salad with dinner
We're in the lettuce section of Trader Joe's, have a salad with my dinner every single night. It's going to keep you full, fill you up and prevent you from overeating at dinner and after dinner. Cause that comes up a lot with my clients. So as I start with a big salad, if possible, I always do go for organic lettuce when possible or for the bag lettuce.
Don't drive yourself crazy. Sure. rinse it, but don't try, it's already cut up for you. Make your life super easy. Sometimes I'll buy herb spring lettuce mix, baby lettuce mix, switch it up, keep it fun and exciting so you don't feel so bored about salads. Other thing I love in Trader Joe's, I have like this edamame for you that's already done. If you're someone who struggles with protein, especially if it's like animal protein, throw some edamame on your salad. It's going to boost your protein intake, which is going to keep you fuller for longer.
