Box Party

Saturday night I had friends (Rob and Jess) over for an informal dinner in the box.  Rob and I needed to  work on a script for an upcoming charitable event.  And, he and Jess have both been interested in this whole box thing.  So, I did a dinner party for them - featuring seven different box entrees along with a few different flavored shakes.  Cheesecake is always a favorite.  Though, most people say it takes like cake batter.  A delicious cake batter.  But, the peanut butter chocolate shake was also yummy. 












As you can see by the photos, we had quite a smorgasbord.  And, in general, the dinners were well received.  Brandon also made fish tacos - in case box food didn't make the cut. You can see from the photo below, Rob is full and satisfied.  :)



The nice thing about eating in the box is that I don't get that stuffed feeling after a dinner party - so we actually got some work done!  But, I think my creative juices flow better after a glass of wine.  I might have contributed more to our script if I had enjoyed a glass or two.  Course, I did stay my strange and silly self even without the wine. See the photo below that Rob took of me!

                                                                  I'm starting to feel a difference in most of my clothes. I have my third weigh in tomorrow night.  I feel okay about it.  Not sure the amount of weight lost this week.  The scale always varies so much for me.  Regardless, it just feels really good to notice a difference in my clothing.  I did take measurements all over my body before starting the diet.  I'm planning to check those again at week four.  Can't wait to see how many inches I've lost.
