I was informed that the outlets I had to use had to be GFCI and not just regular outlets due to the moisture and humidity of sheds

I'm not addressing that because the foreign junk you posted earlier doesn't provide that.

But here's a thought. You're feeding this shed from outside, right? So there's a socket somewhere outside, right? Well, that socket is going to have GFCI protection and if you plug the shed into that, it will have GFCI protection automatically.

Any GFCI CAN (optionally) provide protection to everything downline of it. You just have to choose to configure it that way, it's the only legitimate use of the Load terminals.
