I’m so glad I have a picture of me stuffing my face. Ian, one of the greatest guys ever, took a balls ton of pictures on Sunday for my cookbook. This is one of them. Can’t wait for you all the see them!! You’re the best Ian!
So I get requests regularly for putting up blog posts about what I eat in a day. You all are very curious little humans, aren’t you? I understand. I’m the same way, but instead of wondering what people eat, I am always curious to what people’s personal lives are like. Like their relationships. Everyone seems perfect among their friends, but when they’re alone with each other, you know they have to fight. Or at least I hope they do so I can feel happier about being alone.
Anywho.
Yesterday was a REALLY good day. I had only slept probably an hour or two on Sunday night because I was worried about someone beating the sh*t out of my car again. So Monday night, I got in bed by 8pm and slept until about 7am. Awesome. Good sleep makes everything better. When I don’t sleep enough, I become an emotional, erratic mess. Believe me, I’m dramatic. So sleep made me less omgitsthattimeofthemonth crazy. That me sucks ass.
So here is what my day looked like. Believe me, it’s not exciting.
- 7am- wake up time!
- 7-9am- worked on emails.
- 9am- went to favorite neighborhood coffee shop where I started my morning off with an almond milk dirty chai (shot of espresso is what makes it dirty).
- Worked on a project for another website from 9-11am.
- Had breakfast at 11am. I usually have breakfast WAY earlier, but since I slept for so long and was getting over being an emotional train wreck, I just wasn’t hungry. My breakfast included shredded chicken, some leftover acorn squash, and 1/4 of an avocado with a bit of balsamic vinegar drizzled on top.
- Worked on cookbook from 11am-1pm.
- Went to the gym where I did 3×5 back squat (PR yay!), 15 min. on the min. every min. of 2 high hang squat snatch, then did a 5 rounder with 10 overhead squats and 10 toes to bar. Jason PR’d on his squat too!! We did the same weight. Obviously.
- At 3pm I had lunch which included a leftover pork chop, leftover acorn squash, and a 1/4 of an avocado.
- Then I headed on over to a different coffee shop down the street to work on my cookbook from 3-5pm, where I got YET ANOTHER almond milk chai (not dirty style this time). I know, I know. Do you know the sugar content in chai JB?? Yes, yes I do. Thank you for worrying about me.
- Coached from 5:30-7:30.
- Ate dinner at 8pm. Laura made dinner and fed me. Some spaghetti squash, chicken, bacon and some pesto!
- Then I got a little silly. I had 2 tablespoons of Nikki’s Coconut Butter.
- Then I might have had about 10-20 chocolate covered peanuts/almonds. Damn you Sarah. Damn you emotions. Damn you vagina. I don’t even have a picture of it all because I ate them so fast.
- I then tried to eat some pumpkin ice cream, but it sat in the ice cream maker for too long so it was frozen solid. And I wasn’t up to work that hard.
I then watched the second episode of New Girl. I missed the first one. Damn you work.
OMGILOVENEWGIRL. I wish I could watch it every single damn day. Did you watch The Mindy Project after New Girl. That’s sh*ts funny!! OMGILOVEMINDYPROJECT.







You seriously are my favorite person! You are hilarious. Damn Vagina!! HA HA HA!!
Julie, I love your blog. This post is hilarious and you should be proud of yourself today because you got a lot accomplished. I, on the other hand, need to be writing a paper, BUT I am looking at your site 🙂
Anyhow, I’m doing the Lurong Living Paleo challenge, and need recipes! That spaghetti looks delicious. Do you mind coming up with that recipe, pretty please 🙂
Keep making great food and being funny!
Check out my pistachio pesto chicken pasta recipe on my site!
There are no words for that pistachio pesto… I am attempting to keep 6 basil plant growing just to keep up with my addiction for this pesto!
I’m already on it! Thanks!
Ok… this is weird, but you drinking chai makes me feel justified in going to get a machiatto in the morning…. I don’t know why, it just does.
because we are human beings and that makes us feel better. no worries, i got you
ME TOO! About my own macchiato and sometimes a chai…. Sometimes just a flavored coffee with milk.
Good to know that hot-shit JB also has weaknesses for deliciousnesses. 😉
A delicious day. I need to have avocado for breakfast more often. And I’ve been wanting to try a dirty chai.
Oooh, I learned quite a bit from your post here. I follow your site on Facebook, but this is the first time I came over to the blog! So, how did you make the spaghetti dish? I always look for pasta dishes that are different (without the usual red sauce). Thanks! Tina
yes ma’am, just check out my chicken pistachio pesto pasta on my website for a recipe very similar to that one
Thanks for sharing! Im one of those weirdos who cares! But seriously, knowing that you are so strong and don’t starve yourself or go full whole 30 paleo everyday helps mentally. I want dessert every day and I hate feeling guilty about it!
And you have coffee shop(s) that serve almond milk??? Shut up! I’m crazy jealous.
I was also wondering about these coffee shops that serve almond milk. I know you are in CO and I am as well….would you mind sharing the names of these shops? I would so love to get a latte made with ‘legal’ milk. Thanks!
all kinds of shops carry almond milk, you just have to ask. I tend to frequent sugar bake shop in the wash park area
You slay me. I wish you could marry my brother. That is all.
I love your blog, your food, your honesty and your sense of humor. Can’t wait for your cookbook to come out!!
Now i’m curious… did you bring the Almond milk yourself? or do they carry it? Never heard of a coffee shop doing that… lol
humm, Can a Mox Starbucks be made with Almond milk?
the coffee shops i go to carry almond milk, starbucks does not though. At starbucks, I just bring my own coconut milk to mix into my americano
