I really love these bedsheets found on amazon.

Dewalt cordless drills are on sale right now.

I've had these dress belts for a couple years and really like them.

This is the best thermos I've ever had. Use it daily.

I have the same ones and I really like them. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076CSHCTG?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Start off with your hydration needs coming from water ONLY. No soda, no juice, no milk, no lattes, protein drinks. Get yourself a 32 oz or larger water bottle and carry that sucker with you everywhere. You'll know you are properly hydrated when your pee is almost clear in color, and you will feel like a million bucks while hydrated.

It got this water bottle and I drink a whole one of these each day minimum.

You'd be surprised how many calories we consume just from drinks we don't think about. You can cut all those out and just drink water when thirsty and with meals, and you'll notice a few pounds start to slip off.

In case you didn't know, there's an "ultralight" version of the standard 32 oz wide-mouth at 3.80 oz. There's a 16 oz wide-mouth version as well but I don't see a weight listed.

I have two of them, one broke and i bought another while waiting for warranty replacement because it sucked so bad not having it.
 
That said, Hydroflask is major name brand, if you are holding off on price alone I would HIGHLY recommend this Swig Savvy. functionally identical, comes with a neoprene sleeve sling, and much cheaper:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018R6KJFY

Additionally, This straw lid is a must for the 40 and 64oz. unlike the Hydroflask branded lid, this one has a silicone rubber straw instead of plastic so its basically never going to give out, and the rubber on the mouthpiece is much more durable as well

Found something similar here on Amazon and there’s other options as well

Ich kann (noch nicht) fürs Winterpendeln oder 20 Kilometer Pendelstrecke sprechen, aber folgends ist meine Radgarderobe für 30km+ Mountainbiketour im Winter bzw bisherige Pendelstrecke in diesem Jahr:

Regenjacke von Scott (glaub Scott Trail MTN Dryo 20) - hält Dicht bei Regen und Wind (!!), hat Reißverschlüsse unter den Achseln, die gut belüften und außerdem sind die groß genug, dass ich an wärmeren Tagen als Armloch verwenden kann. Außerdem ein großes Plus (da Scott Fahrradausrüster ist), dass man unter die Kapuze einen Helm bekommt. Bei einer Regenjacke würde ich auf jeden Fall beim Radaustatter shoppen. Bezahlt hab ich 120 (im Angebot), kostet regulär 200-250€. Die Jacke ist dünn, wodurch die auch an warmen Frühlings und Herbstagen getragen werden kann - sowie im Sommer, im Winter muss man sich halt einen Pulli drunter ziehen. Da die Winddicht ist, kann ich mit Tshirt und der Regenjacke bis bestimmt 10° fahren. Hat auch Wasserdichte Taschen, die meines erachtens schon wichtig sind.

Regenhose - ich hab darauf geachtet, dass ich die schnell mit Schuhen an und ausgezogen bekomme. Ist jetzt vom Schwitzen her nicht die beste, hat aber schon 60€ gekostet. Von Vaude und so kriegt man noch einige bessere für weit mehr Geld.

Schuhüberzieher - ganz wichtig. Ich hab welche von Vaude für 20€ gekauft, halten gut dicht. Ich glaub das sind die Vaude Gaiter short. Wenn du Regenschuhe bzw wasserdichte Schuhe kaufen solltest, muss die Regenhose entweder über die Schuhe ragen, oder du braucht zusätzlich noch Gamaschen.

Schuhe - für 20km würde ich mir persönlich Klickpedale und Schuhe holen, aber keine Ahnung, ob das auf dem Ebike Sinn macht. Ich würde auch kein Ebike fahren, aber egal. Ich glaub ich würde probieren, ob die 20€ Überzieher es auch tun oder ob du wirklich regenfeste Radschuhe brauchst.

Handschuhe - ganz wichtig. Mir frieren die Flossen sehr schnell, ich persönlich bin von den Handschuhen überzeugt: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07HQPXC2B/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Wenn es zu kalt wird, noch die Unterzieher: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00359A9O0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1 und gut ist. Bin damit 35km bei Minusgraden gefahren. Ist nicht super angenehm (ab einer bestimmten Zeit), aber glaub so dünne Handschuhe kriegt man fast nicht Wintertauglicher. Wenns dir zu kalt wird, musst man fast schon auf Skihandschuhe umsteigen. Hauptsache jedoch Wind und Wasserdicht - und das sind die. (Also insgesamt 30€)

Hose: Ich bin bis letzte Woche noch mit Shorts (stinknormale Nike, Adidas, Puma Sportshorts) gefahren, letzte Woche zusätzlich noch mit Kompressionsstrümpfen, da die etwas wärmen. Beim Fahrradfahren sind die Beine das letzte, was friert. Heute hab ich mal Jogginghosen (und die Strümpfe) angezogen. War schon wieder fast zu warm (bei 5°). Für später hab ich mir noch die Hose gekauft: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07GZCKMSD/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_image?ie=UTF8&psc=1, ist ziemlich Winddicht und trocknet schnell. Die Hose hatte ich letztes Jahr im Winter beim Mountainbiken: https://www.amazon.de/INBIKE-Fahrradhose-Winddicht-Atmungsaktiv-Radfahrren/dp/B015NYL0PQ/ref=sr_1_7?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&keywords=fahrradhose&qid=1569841741&s=gateway&sr=8-7

Die ist aber viel zu warm, bisher jedenfalls. Ist quasi eine Softshell/Fleece Hose, die gut wärmt. Wenn du eher kalte Beine hast, greif zu. Vielleicht beim Ebiken auch eher sinnvoll, als beim Mountainbiken.

Drunter trag ich immer Active Shirts. Aktuell noch kurzärmlige Trikots (sowas hier: https://www.amazon.de/Herren-Kurzarm-T-Shirt-Trikot-Schwarz/dp/B01AC6P7M2/ref=sr_1_5?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&keywords=nike+trikot+shirt&qid=1569842288&s=gateway&sr=8-5), später langärmlige (https://www.amazon.de/Nike-Herren-Longsleeve-Black-White/dp/B00AYUIPOY/ref=sr_1_1?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&keywords=nike+kompressionsshirt+herren+kragen&qid=1569842443&s=gateway&sr=8-1), die kann man auch "stapeln". Drüber eine Weste oder die Regenjacke und du bist gewappnet. Die Shirts trocknen recht schnell und sind auch recht atmungsaktiv. Allgemein finde ich das beste gegen Kälte das Zwiebelprinzip, 2 Shirts, drüber eine Weste (ich hab eine Vaude Weste, die ist komplett Winddicht) und wenn es noch extremer wird, eine Fleecejacke drüber (auch sehr mit Vaude zufrieden, aber teuer) und danach noch die Regenjacke. Aber man muss für sich selbst herausfinden, wie viel man braucht. Wenn man 20km fährt, wärmt einen die Bewegung schon gut, sodass man beim Radfahren eher weniger als beim normalen Laufen braucht. Wenn man zu viel anzieht, schwitzt man früher und kühlt dadurch eher aus. Man muss da etwas den Sweetspot treffen.


Wenn du einen Helm trägst (solltest du), dann brauchst du eine Helmunterzieh-Kappe: https://www.amazon.de/VAUDE-Herren-03278-010-5400-Helm-Unterziehmuetze-Schwarz/dp/B003ZUZ7Y6/ref=sr_1_7?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&keywords=vaude%2Bhelm&qid=1569841846&s=gateway&sr=8-7&th=1&psc=1
Die hat meine Birne gut gewärmt und trotz viel schwitzen hat die nicht so schnell gestunken. Glaub mir, das brauchst du, durch den Helm zieht es gut durch.

Eine Sturmhaube ist bei mir auch Pflicht. Ich hab so eine Halbe (die man mit der Mütze dann gut kombinieren kann:

https://www.amazon.de/BRUBECK%C2%AE-klimaoaktive-Gesichtsmaske-Sturmhaube-Sturmmaske/dp/B01GV93EZ6/ref=sr_1_5?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&keywords=fahrrad%2Bmundschutz&qid=1569841944&s=gateway&sr=8-5&th=1&psc=1

Hat so Lüftungslöcher, damit die Brille nicht beschlägt, denn:

Ich persönlich kann nicht ohne Brille fahren. Mir tränen die Augen bei kalter Luft extrem schnell. Ich hab mir einfach ein paar günstigere von Uvex geholt: https://www.amazon.de/Uvex-Erwachsene-Sportstyle-Sportsonnenbrille-Smoke/dp/B005EG3NMC/ref=sr_1_7?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&keywords=uvex+brille+fahrrad&qid=1569842033&s=gateway&sr=8-7
Eine, die gegen die Sonne hilft und für den Winter eine durchsichtige.

Zur Tasche kann ich dir nichts sagen, ich benutze einen Rucksack mit Laptopfach, der Wasserdicht ist. Mich stört der Rucksack nicht. Meine Meinung würde sich vielleicht ändern, wenn ich 20km mit dem Rad Pendeln müsste. Wobei ich schon 50km mit Trinkrucksack gefahren bin, aber ist nicht jedermanns Sache.

Aber zu trinken solltest du dir mitnehmen. Wenn ich mehr als 5km fahre, nehm ich immer ne Flasche mit. Flaschenhalter am Rad (gibts genügend) und ne Flasche (ich find die gut, kann man ohne Probleme auch beim Fahren trinken: https://www.amazon.de/Trinkflasche-uberBottle-Wasserflasche-Sportflasche-Fitnessstudio/dp/B01F2HWLAC/ref=sr_1_5?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&crid=26N2ZBVZC3FEE&keywords=720+degree&qid=1569842146&s=gateway&sprefix=720+de%2Caps%2C180&sr=8-5)

Maltodextrin from MyProtein is currently $1.50/lb with coupon code, not sure if they don't stock the 11lb anymore but I've gotten those for $0.91/lb.

Fructose from Amazon - $4/lb

For a 80g gel that's 53g maltodextrin, 27g fructose, about $0.40. Compare that to SIS Beta Fuel which retails at $3.50. Or for a 20g maltodextrin-only gel, $0.07 each for what SIS sells for $0.85.

I just mix in some water & lemon juice, it tastes fine. Make it in protein shaker bottle and put it in a gel flask.

Buy These

Nalgene is a brand of light weight BPA free hard plastic water bottles that are pretty common around the globe. You've probably seen one before. They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes

It's hard to find a bottle that is lighter than a typical water bottle, the plastic tends to be super thin because they're optimized to use as little material as possible. In fact, some googling tells me a typical 16 oz bottle of water weighs just 12.7 grams.

A typical 32 oz water bottle weighs 45 grams:

https://smile.amazon.com/Nalgene-Mouth-BPA-Free-Water-Bottle/dp/B000KA6AOU/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=ultralight+water+bottle&qid=1555623827&s=gateway&sr=8-6

So a typical water bottle bought in a grocery store weighs less per oz water carried. The only bottles I can find that beat on a gram per oz water are giant 2-liter water bottles, which are impractical for most hiking trips (and even then you would need to compare that to the weight of a 2 liter single use bottle and I'm putting my money on the single use).

Most single use water bottles are strong enough to last for most hikers. Water pouches are fine, but it seems unnecessary to buy extra products to hold water and don't seem to save any weight. Part of zero waste is reducing consumption and reusing what you already have.

Another fan of Hydro Flask here, I use mine the same way you describe. I have about 10 different thermoses and to be honest none of them are quite perfect but overall the Hydro Flask is my pick for on the go coffee.

Contigo -- the thermos itself is really easy to clean but the lid is a pain, like you mentioned.

Hydro Flask -- the lid is incredibly simple and easy to clean, but the thermos itself is a bit trickier since the opening is smaller, for a deep cleanings I usually have to use a fork to push around a brillo pad to get all the coffee discoloration out of the steel.
With Hydro Flask all of the "Wide Mouth" lids are interchangeable so you could put the same lid on the 64oz growler as you do on the smaller bottles if you need to have half a gallon of hot coffee at work. I've got the 20 and 40oz versions, the coating on them is the best I've experienced and has laughed off drops onto concrete/asphalt, a few dents but no negative impact on the vacuum seal or longevity of heat/cold retention.

Yeti Tumbler -- they are great but they don't actually seal closed so you stand a risk of spilling some. Easiest to clean since it's basically a steel cup with a polycarbonate lid (don't use the scrubby side of a sponge on the lid or you will scratch the crap out of it.)

I have a 1.4L Nalgene water bottle that I carry everywhere. It's amazing.

Here’s a better breakdown of the stuff I bring. A lot of it I bring in a “better safe than sorry” mentality. I try to keep most of the ten essentials with me, and honestly, they take up so little space and weigh so little that it’s just easy for me to keep them in the pack and always have them with me. It’s like putting on your seat belt in a car- there’s VERY little chance you’ll crash, but it’s so easy to do that I figure I may as well!

Good stats, thanks!

Could of Q's;
Do the weights include dirty water bag or just the filter? My Sawyer is only about 75g, not 98g. Or is that with the 1lt bag too? Is the BeFree 0.6lt bottle included in the 40g ?

I have a 2lt 'Dirty' Evernew bag for the Sawyer and I often need to do big filters, so filling up a 0.6lt bottle 3-4 times could prove annoying... Does anyone have an accurate weight on the 2lt Hydrapak bottle that looks like it would fit the BeFree? Ot the 3lt Flask?

Only other drawback I can see is the multi use lids I have. If I lose/break a lid (which has happened) I can just buy a cheap Smart water and boom, brand new lid.


Have a friend just getting into hiking and I was just going to say "Get the Squeeze" but now it looks like it might be a harder choice.

Also, the BeFree screws into Hydrapak Seekers

I use a Kleen Kanteen... http://www.amazon.com/Klean-Kanteen-Insulated-Stainless-16-Ounce/dp/B00UOE8M0C/

I generally use it to bring coffee to work, which I then drink out of a mug, but occasionally just drink out of it like a cup. The inside of the lid is stainless, so there's basically no plastic touching the coffee and there's no worry about leaking, since it's doesn't have a complicated lid with buttons and holes.

I think most complaints of weird taste out of mugs is the smell of the steel/plastic or from dirty/plastic mouth pieces.

I have an insulated Klean Kanteen and I really like it. I like that I can swap out the lids. I mainly use the regular, non-sip lid so I can throw it in my bag in the morning and pour it into a mug when I get to work. I've never had a problem with it leaking. If I want to sip it on the go though I have a sip lid that I can swap it out for.

I've been using a Nomader for a bit -- it roughly fits your spec.

• collapsible silicone bottle
  
• watertight ^(not sure what you meant by this -- aren't all water bottles watertight?)
  
• haven't had any problems cleaning

Holy crap I cannot recommend this water bottle enough! It's this 32 oz Embrava Sports Water Bottle ($22) that I got off Amazon! It definitely leak proof, doesn't add any weird taste to the water, it can hold a lot of water without being ginormous, it has really fast water flow (to the point where you kinda have to get used to it when you first get it), it's overall amazing! 10/10 highly recommend!

The Nathan SpeedDraw or Nathan SpeedShot are kind of the standard from my experience.

Yeah, on a bladder. It's this guy: Hydrapak Seeker Hydration Storage https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N7X1GPV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_IvK2Ab18RPMT8

Such as the bot that will reply to me in a few moments.

Most certainly. I used to be able to fit everything into 1 pack. Nowadays I check 2 bags, 1 being a cooler stuffed with some things.

My pack is 65L Gregory Baltoro. Big Items I have are: Tent(REI Half Dome Plus), sleeping pad, backpacking chair, backpacking pillow, extra pair of shoes, and canopy. Keep in mind most of my stuff is all lightweight-ish backpacking gear.

Its usually plenty warm at night that I don't bring a full sleeping bag, just a sleeping bag liner.

In the bottom of the pack where the sleeping bag would usually go I pack the sleeping pad (usually a lil extra room down there to stuff some socks or undies). Then I take my tent poles and canopy poles and slide them on the inside of the bag along one of the sides. Chair goes in vertically alongside it, along with pillow. Then fill in with my clothes. The Baltoro is awesome cause it is both top loading and front loading so I have access to everything as if it was a suitcase(but the packing should be near the same if you have just a top loader.

I try to pack as minimal as I can with clothes. For a 3 day music fest I usually have 5-6 shirts(some are pretty light linen type shirts, 2-3 pair shorts, 4 sock, 4 boxers, and hoodie/lightweight windbreaker. Fashion has never been my strong suit.

Pack all that in there. Once all that packed, just cram your tent in from the top pushing it in every nook and cranny you can. Bunch it in every crevice. You'd be surprised ho well it can fit in a backpack when you don't worry about folding it. Then I would dod the same with the canopy. Usually still had enough room on the top for a pair of size 13 shoes too. All my toiletries/headlamp/etc could fit in the lid pockets and front pocket.

I also would have a small cooler bag I would take as my carry-on bag that way at the fest I could keep some food/drinks somewhat cold plus it gave me extra room to throw clothes/ water bottle/book etc for on the plane. I also have a packable backpack similar to this that I throw in there then use inside the festival.

Nowadays, since I get 2 free checked bags(Southwest or Alaska) I can take a few more luxury items like a blanket to lay on, some fun lil toys and trinkets for fest,andf I cram those and the canopy into a full size cooler and duct tape that up and count that as a checked bag. AS long as its under 50lbs its the same as any other bag and I have a full cooler of drinks and food.

I buy almost all of my meals inside the venue. Most of the food I have at camp is just snacks type things like trail mix, meat cheese crackers, etc. that I pick up from the store on my way out to venue along with beer and plenty of boxed wine. Thesecollapsible pouches barely take up any room and can hold a bunch of wine to sneak in!

All in all, I'd say lay out everything you WANT to take and do a test run to see how much you can fit in your bag. Then if its a lil tight, take it all out and eliminate 1-2 things that you might be able to do without. My 1 luxury item is my chair. It feels so good to be able to sit in a chair vs the ground after standing or sitting all day in the fest.

My first couple times trying to pack everything I couldn't fit it, but after restructuring things around a few times I was able to get it all in, albeit heavy and uncomfortable, but I wasn't;'t hiking in so just was just uncomfortable for the small times i was lugging it in.

Hope that helps. I'm happy to answer any more questions you may have too. Thats just the stuff off the top of my head.

I prefer insulated bottles, so I've been a fan of the Camelbak Quick Grip Chill. One thing to note is that they are on the larger size (21oz), so it would be a little on the heavier side. It's really nice for warmer days, though, since you can fill the bottle partway, freeze it, and then fill the rest with your drink of choice and have nice and cool fluids for quite a while.

The Nathan Speeddraw is also pretty decent. I really like the hand strap and ergonomics, but the bottle isn't as nice to me when compared to the Camelbak.

I'll have to disagree here. The Mora Bushcraft Triflex is one of the finest blades I've used. It is light weight, yet, is extremely durable. It sharpens easily, holds and edge, and is about the right size for bushcraft in my hands.

I've used them to prep meat and vegetables, carve wood needles, baton firewood, cut cordage, fell tiny trees, and most other tasks one needs in the woods or at home. It is a joy to use.

I've used other brands at 20 times the price and have been left not nearly as satisfied.

Don't take for granted that you won't feel bad about really using this blade. At less than $30 you won't worry about replacing it (but you might never need to).

I've held and used the Mora Companion and the Mora HighQ Robust, I give them to folks that go into the woods with me as gifts. They are fine knives as well, with the same qualities as the Triflex.

If you are cheapo, grab one of these knives and try it. I'd bet most people like them.

As for the knife is not an axe part, we'll disagree there too. The Parang type machete, and other long knives of similar design is a type of tool used in many parts of the world. It can be used very skillfully for rather delicate tasks, such as food preparation, or it can be used to cut down a tree. In some areas that's all a person carries.

Firesteel, I'm with stupid_guy, hit Amazon: Light My Fire Scout has been working for me. I like that when it feels like you are holding it right, you are. Works good in the dark that way.

I went on a 30-mi ride and ended up getting a really dry mouth, so I ended it there. Yesterday, I did 33-mi and ended it in order to get back at a decent time for breakfast. Having a water bottle on-hand definitely helped out and this set-up felt solid.

Maybe some small 'bottles' used for hiking and running? These were the first result on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Juvale-Collapsible-Water-Bottle-Carabiner/dp/B01MQVKP5V/

I have never used any of them so I have no idea what they're like and cannot give any recommendation, but maybe it helps to give an idea of a solution.

Truth is if this is your first time out, you aren't going to really know how you want to carry. You are going to have to try several different things before you find what you like. If you're on a budget old Gatorade or Powerade bottles are what I used when I started out. If you aren't going somewhere where you can resupply think hard about how much you are going to need for cooking and hygiene too, drinking is just the beginning. If you have a little bit of money to spend I really like the Platypus bottles

some people carry a camelback style bladder in their pack others carry in nalgene bottles.

Yes! They drove me absolutely bonkers. I switched over to the soft body ones.

Collapsible Water Bottle. You just throw it in your bag and you always have a water bottle on you. https://www.amazon.com/Nomader-Collapsible-Water-Bottle-Proof/dp/B01AIKRRTS/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_468_bs_t_1

Pretty close! I've actually been eyeing these guys: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B076CSHCTG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=A1NU14VP4C2WHH&psc=1

Foldable water bottle! They can fold up in a pocket or purse, just fill it at the sink, lay down some toilet paper if they don't have sanitary covers, and wash away! I have this down to a science by now, avoids the "Why is there a cup at the toilet?" convos. Also you can reuse them for a while.

I use this bottle: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B011LC85PM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's semi-transparent plastic, which I like because I can easily see how much water is left. It holds a lot (1000ml), is easy to clean, has a grill at the top to prevent ice cubes from blocking the spout, and is easy to drink out of.

So far, it's held up fine, and hasn't leaked at all.

The stainless steel 900ml isn't terrible at $40, but it is 3.7oz heavier. A Toaks 550 and a Talenti jar together only weigh 4.6oz, which is almost identical to the Bot 700, but 4oz lighter than the steel Bot 900.

I just really want them to make a stainless Bot 700 so I can justify buying it. I'll take the 2oz weight penalty I think that would be to save $60. I can almost buy an MLD Core with that much money and you can never have too many packs, right?

Vargo makes a few different bottle/pot combos, but they're titanium, and have the price tags to go with it.

OK, thanks for the advice. I'm definitely going to add the 550 cord. Pepper spray is another good defensive option that isn't banned in the People's Republic of Chicago. You've also sold me on the stainless steel canteen, so consider that and some water purification tablets added, too.

You have a better idea of your situation than I do, so I'm going to try to give the best answer I can (though I'm still not sure about the strategy as a whole, I probably have a relatively good background in freezing -lent). Anyways, here is how I would go about it.

I would use wide mouth, insulated (perhaps), stainless steel bottles (like this). These should hold up well to repeated freeze/thaw, be durable in general, be easy to clean, and keep the soylent cold. The insulation also prevents condensation from building up on the outside. If you aren't waiting a long time before consuming the soylent, these might keep it frozen for too long though - up to you.

Blend your soylent + flavorings at a higher than usual concentration (using capital "S" Soylent, as well as a blender, it should mix just fine at high concentration). Work out what the concentration needs to be for your bottles.

Freeze the partially filled bottles at an angle, with the lid off. When I froze -lent, I had the bottle almost completely horizontal, with the opening end resting on the lid to prop it up a bit. This eliminates problems with expansion when freezing and makes it thaw faster when water is added.

A little while before you want to drink it, add water. It's hard to guess how long it will take to melt - could be days for an insulated bottle. Once it's melted you will need to shake it a little bit, but won't need a blender ball or anything.

Beers and wine at camp, Rumpleminz inside centerroo. Keeps your breath fresh, 100proof so you get drunk, chases well with water from your CamelBak. I use a Platypus soft bottle to get it into the venue.

For water, I use this one. Helps me track my water intake.

I often use a hip-belt, though it can get uncomfortable on runs an hour or longer. I've also used this water bottle, which just barely fits my Pixel XL 1 (along with a tiny wallet and a car key). It's also just generally a good bottle for running. Note that some of the color options have smaller pouches.

Why not use a drink bottle with times on it, like this

If you are going to drink alone don't get a growler (as so many have said below). 4 pints of good beer (this is also important to note) often is too much for one person in a night. Get you a stainless 32 oz. Like this one.

It's not for everyone, if you are asking this question then you are one of those it is not for...The draw for me and many of my friends is the fact that we love and appreciate beer, and some of the best beer out there is only available at a taproom. You are paying restaurant markup prices so that is not an advantage...Just quality!

They do only last a day or two at best in a growler (better seal longer...), once air and more air is added to it the c02 dissipates and your beer will go flat. So it will last longer if you haven't drank any out of a full growler (less space for the gas to escape) and will go flat more quickly with the inverse.

And to some commenting that it is a fad...you are off on this. These filling stations are not a thing for Portland. They are everywhere now and will continue to grow, but there will eventually be a ceiling of expense for where the dispensers thrive.

I guess, but 48 oz isn't really that much over the course of a day. It's basically the size of one of those large convenience store cups. Even if you can't have a drink at your desk, you have to be allowed to leave your desk and get something to drink occasionally. So get something like this, fill it with iced black tea the night before, and drink it throughout the day at work. Doesn't really seem impractical to me, and it keeps you hydrated as well.

You're eating too much & you're drinking wayyyyy too little water. You need to drink 2-4 Liters of water a day. How do you do that? You add LiteSalt to it which will make it more palatable and give your potassium and sodium. Get a 64 ounce water bottle if you don't drink enough water & drink two of them - yes it's a lot of water but add the litesalt to it. Also, if you don't drink enough water, your weight loss will stall as keto is intrinsically dehydrative.

You're simply not doing keto right. Your 20% deficit is not really 20%, and you need to go down to 40% deficit. Bring carbs down to <20 g.

Consume ~145 g of protein per day. Having trouble with that? Get unflavored, unsugared, NO ARTIFICIAL sweetener whey protein - http://us.myprotein.com/sports-nutrition/impact-whey-isolate/10852482.html is 30% off, cheap, good quality brand.

Also, incorporate Tabata style HIIT sprints 1-2x a week + do some compound lifting program 3x a week - squats, deadlifts, military press, bench i.e. Stronglifts.com

Finally, MEASURE ALL YOUR FOODS WITH A FOOD SCALE ($10 on Amazon). For whatever reason you are likely eating at maintenance, so until you are absolutely sure weigh things.
