Laugh all you like... Everything in that pic is from Trader Joe's and mostly low carb, fat and calorie. It is amazing the quality products they offer "If" you bother to read the labels. The steaks, chicken, shrimp, vegetables, turkey meatballs etc. that they accompany and you are not seeing didn't come in packaging that needed discarding.
I am 5'9" and 185# and my bridee is 5'1" and 117#... not too bad for a couple of old folks.
There now, don't we all feel better???

Just out of curiosity, are those packaged foods as high in sodium as so many others are?
On another take, my wife and I rarely ever take much food from home with us. Part of our 'experience' is stopping in grocery stores in various areas, many times picking up local produce, regional specialties, or deli-prepared treats. Maybe it's just us, but we kind of want something different than what we have every day at home. It just adds something special to the trip for us. Plus, I haven't found a grocery store parking lot yet that I couldn't easily get in and out of, even with a DP + toad.
