30 Day Blog Challenge
A photo of yourself and a description of how your day was.
All gross and sweaty in the studio after my workout. Work was less stressful than last week, workout was a fun sweat-fest and then came home to NOT having to cook dinner (the best part)! The sister has so much free time this summer that I just give her my credit card and she does all the grocery shopping while I’m at work. Our house is stocked with fresh and healthy food and she even cooked honey-soy glazed salmon, yam fries and kale chips tonight. Life is good. 
 Now, I wish someone would give me THEIR credit card.
Speaking about groceries, here is what my kitchen ALWAYS has to be stocked up on:
- giant bag of baby spinach (pre-washed)
- egg whites
- skim milk
- bananas
- plain oatmeal
- canned tuna
- bags of frozen cauliflower in the freezer (one of my favorite veggies)
- frozen berries
…and then everything else depends on what’s in season (especially fruit— LOTS of it) and the protein depends on my mood.
What do you always have to have in your kitchen?
KATY:
I always make sure my kitchen is stocked up with:
-Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream
-Orange Juice (simply orange)
-Eggs
-Bacon
-Rice
-Crown Royal
I just need these to survive, otherwise i eat out way too much. Thinking it over, i should really learn to cook more, I’ll never make a decent housewife if i can’t cook. And eat more fruits. Yes. That’s what i should do. eat more fruits…

Depends on my mood but you can put anything and everything in it: fresh/frozen berries, honey, skim milk, condensed milk, cottage cheese, yogurt, granola, nuts, dried fruits, etc. You can even cook a little bit of egg whites, salt and bit of hot water to have a savory, porridge-like oatmeal.

It’s awesome that you’re so healthy. Makes me feel more of a fatty.

Your blog definitely reminds me to keep myself in check. Did you find a good gym yet?

The plug-i is called Now-Reading:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/now-reading-reloaded/
Are my images broken when you visit the library? They always seem to be breaking now so I think I might need to take it down soon or switch to something simpler like Good Reads. I just like the plug-in because I can customize it however I want.
REPLY
We always have milk, cereal, oats, chicken breasts, and eggs… except they’re mostly consumed by my brother =/
REPLY
Hun, you have such a GREAT body, I’m jealous. Just thought I’d put that out there haha
What I always have in my kitchen: (kinda bad)
- Shin Ramyum ramen
- eggs
- water
- chips
- rice
that’s the only regulars..

Great way to kick off your 30 day challenge.
my kitchen is stoked up with spinach too, and carrots, fruits, vanilla soy milk and now I’ve been enjoying chicken boobs so we buy the precooked/grilled and packaged chicken breast from costco.
But I’ll be honest, the kitchen is also full of chips, candies, chocolates, vino, and baked goods thanks to the roommate who brings home her mom’s home baked cookies and pies all the damn time. Makes it so hard to stay healthy.

Don’t worry, I have a lot of unhealthy foods that that 24-pack of ice cream sandwiches I bought a couple days ago and are almost ALL gone. I need to pick up another box this weekend.
REPLY
How do you still look so cute after a workout?!
My dorm room is always stocked up with milk, cereal, fruit, and lemonade. My kitchen at home is a microcosm of a grocery store… right now, I’m into pizza rolls, chips and salsa, chai (that I mix with milk), orangeade, clementines, and nectarines.
REPLY
I don’t even cook but I somehow always manage to have:
- 2% milk
- orange juice or at least some kind of juice
- oatmeal
- tuna
i’m into the easy to cook/prepare meals but tuna/rice/mayo/maggi combo is my fave after working out. sounds gross but its delish
REPLY
Always there:
- 2% milk

REPLY

And lately, I’ve been on this huge smoothie kick, so I always have to make sure I have skim milk and lots of frozen fruit on hand. MMMmmm…a smoothie sounds super good right now!
