Happy Friday! Today I’m participating in the Friday Five link up with Courtney from Eat Pray Run DC, Mar from Mar on the Run and Cynthia from You Signed Up For What?!. Today’s topic is food and drink!
Ever summer I tell myself to get “bikini body ready”, but let’s face it – that’s hard work! Sometimes I wish their were products that made this goal a little easier and more attainable. Enter idealshape!
What is idealshape? From their website:
“IdealShape is on a mission “To be the simplest and easiest weight loss solution, and to help one million people to achieve their ideal shape.” They help customers lose weight by controlling their hunger with affordable delicious products to regain their confidence and self esteem to live their ideal life.”
Last week idealshape sent me three products from their line to try – idealshape orange creme and chocolate meal replacement and the idealboost variety pack.
Earlier this week I tried the orange creme meal replacement product. I didn’t have time to meal prep over the weekend, so I needed something quick and easy for lunch on Tuesday.
It was pretty tasty! I was a little worried that it might be too sweet but it was really delicious. It actually reminded me of the creamsicle popsicles I used to eat as a kid. In addition it kept me full for a few hours. I didn’t even need my normal snack (apple + peanut butter) before my workout that evening.
It’s good to know that I can use a great tasting meal replacement shake for lunch to keep me full without a lot of calories. Each serving is only 100 calories and has 1 gram of sugar and 5 grams of fiber.
Next I tried idealboost. You just mix the packet with water and then you’re all set! It comes in three flavors – raspberry citrus, pineapple strawberry and tropical punch.
As I mentioned earlier I usually have a snack between lunch and my evening workout. One day I used the idealboost in lieu of my snack and it really did the trick! It kept me full and I was able to get through my workout with our any signs of hunger. There are only 5 calories per packet and it contains Vitamins B6 and B12.
I’m happy to continue to use these products this summer to work on my #IdealShapeGoals!
