They came in a box...

Did you know?

I have started on a journey with some friends of eating my meals from a box. Now some people in my life know that I am trying out all sorts of ideas for losing my ample shape. I have taken the plunge and purchased a box of Lady Shakes. It is funny the excitement I had of trying something new.

In this box I have found a variety of flavored sachets inside. These sachets are considered to be food. In truth enough food to be 2 meals per day if I do as they recommend and have two of these sachets per day. I am giving this my best shot I have to say.

To be honest, I am impressed so far. The taste is not bad at all.

Of course I am still keeping my step count up and drinking my water count.

Today’s meal will be pumpkin soup. Which will be homemade…..so yummy!

I was just reading an article about how weight loss can cause an increase in fear and trepidation. The sense of failure looming. It is actually a big step to be in the mind space to tackle this mission I think. It is a position of courage I have taken to open this box and pull out a flavored sachet and dutifully mix my meal and be mindful that these stubborn pounds will leave me.

Of course there is the fear that these pounds when gone will leave me looking like a prune……all wrinkled and shriveled up. In truth this fear has been a stronghold in keeping me from succeeding in this mission in the past I think. Is being fat better than looking like a prune? Vanity is such an issue really in all ways.

Happy Sunday to you all. Have a great week.

With Love
