nalgene is a brand of containers-- mostly used for camping and outdoorsy type stuff. they're made of sturdy plastic and usually the lids are attached (so you won't lose 'em!). they make all kinds/sizes of containers, but their 32oz bottles are really popular (which is what i carry)-- i'm sure that you've seen them before http://www.nalgene-outdoor.com/store/
good lord, you'd think i worked for nalgene. anyway, i love 'em because it helps me visually track how much water i've had to drink. i may forget how many 8oz glasses or bottles of water i've had, but i can just look at my nalgene and know how much i've had or if i need my refill. it's funny, i've gotten so used to carrying it around with me, i get all out of sorts without it.
Have to post early because of school tonight. Hope everyone is doing well today.

d-
*1/2 burrito at a 'chipotle'-type place (spinach tortilla, rice, black beans, mixed spoonful of steak/white meat chicken, cheese, cilantro, hot salsa, guac-- not many veggies to choose from)
* 2ish servings of tortilla chips
i'd just like to say that i was entirely happy with my 1/2 size burrito, even though the full size is only like 50 cents more-- i know i'd eat the whole thing (including chips) even if i didn't really want it. the 1/2 size was just right. also-- the restaurant was next to a shop that sells the b e s t ice cream in houston, and since i wasn't bursting at the seams from choking down a full size burrito i toyed with the idea of splurging on ice cream. i chugged down about 1/2 my nalgene and resisted though.

I havent been snacking today but I do love those little individual pieces of cheese, and yogurt, and ff pudding I wish I liked veggies a little more but have a hard time not dunking raw carrots, or cauli. in veggie dip. I tried the ff kind but its almost as bad as ff ranch dresing (which I had a hard time swallowing today). I just started WW yesterday and think I did ok today I just really need to work on the water (ugggg) Anyone have any suggestions on a decent dressing? I think I would/could eat more salads if there was something decent to put on top of it.
1 lemon, juiced
2 T balsamic vinegar
1-2 garlic cloves, diced finely or pressed (pressed is best)
1/2 tsp. onion powder
A pinch of salt and pepper
1/2 tsp. of your favorite dried herb
Combine and allow flavors to mingle overnight and enjoy a fat-free, sugar-free dressing
thank you yogini I will give it a try. Balsamic vinager has a very destinct taste that Im not crazy about but the more I thought about this recipe I wonder if the other flavors dont even it out a bit??
