Cool stuff for dieters and brown baggers

Down two pounds on the first week of the Celebrity Fit Club plan! Dr. Ian K. Smith's  Extreme Fat Smash Diet requires strict adherence to the plan. This means preplanning and bringing your food with you.

I've had a bit of a transporation problem since a few meals and snacks don't fit into a little insulated lunch bag. So I've been carrying my sodas, plastic containers, fruit, and big baggie of carrots and celery into a Pampered Chef insulated tote. It's really a tote for casserole dishes and I use it at potlucks and bringing brownies to meetings and get togthers. I love it, but it's too big to lug around a soda, lunch and a few snacks.

So I decided I needed something else - a Zojirushi Mr. Bento Stainless-Steel lined Lunch Jar. It features a round jar with four food bowls for hot or cold lunch storage. It's insulated and the bowls are microwavable. Plus it comes with a convenient carrying bag in which you can slip a napkin and utensils. On Amazon, it was $43.67, which makes me eligible for a free one-year subscription to Domino magazine.

I also got Fit & Fresh Power Shaker since I've been making lots of smoothies, too. There's nothing like having the proper tools on hand to make dieting and eating on the go easier.
