How I arranged my MF foodasw

I have a good size home but no room for my Medifast food. Between g'kid gear, farm paperwork, my cake decorating stuff, as well as normal living stuff, the only place I have to call my own food space is a hallway shelf. I ordered a set of 12 clear shoe boxes from Walmart and thanks to one g'child entertaining the baby g'child, I was able to sort my food. Goodbye big box that made me feel like I was a transient! I used a label maker for the outside. I cut off the box covers of some things, like the soups, to use as dividers between the flavors for easier reference. (Oh no! I discovered that I'm out of oatmeal!) I shoved the boxes closer together and now have a convenient space for my blender and shaker bottles at one end.

**Edited to say that my g'baby climbed over me (am sitting on couch in front of fan) and her foot added the asw to my topic headline.

    I have read where people buy a cheap-o over the door pocket shoe hanger thingy. Both seem like a good idea for the space challenged

    Ooh, that is an awesome idea. I leave them spread out as much as possible so it looks like there's a huge variety and a lot of food. I've seen a you tube video where one organized lady put hers into ziplock bags with five meals in them ready to go as soon as she got her shipment, then organized it in a neat little Rubbermaid tub. Wonderful idea.

    I did the over-the-door shoe thingy. I'm in maintenance now and have cut back on my MF meals but still use the shoe thingy for other bars, microwave popcorn, spice packets, and all kinds of other small loose stuff that was getting lost in the pantry.
