- I'm Lucy Hale and this is everything I eat
in a day. (air clicks)
(hands clap) (air whooshes)
(cheerful instrumental music)
Okay, the first thing I do when I wake up,
and I hate to admit this,
I check my phone.
Actually that's not true.
I pee and then I'll check my phone.
What's the app?
I mean I'll probably like check Instagram.
I know it's so bad but one of my goals
during this quarantine is to set aside 30 minutes
in the morning before I do anything to make a cup of coffee
or meditate or journal.
I've done it a couple of days,
it's just so hard to break that cycle
but I am working on it.
I am a breakfast person.
I think about breakfast all the time.
I like all the meals but I think breakfast
is definitely my favorite.
But my breakfast can vary from like a peanut butter
perfect food bar to like chocolate chip pancakes
with bacon and eggs.
Just kinda depends on the day.
Out of coffee and tea, I am 155% more a coffee person.
I kept trying to get into tea.
I fee like it's very official and very adult,
like a cup of tea before bed but
dare I say it's boring.
No offense, maybe I'm just doing it wrong.
Maybe I'm drinking the wrong types of tea.
Ah, but I love coffee any time of day,
morning, night, afternoon.
I actually go to sleep excited
about my cup of coffee in the morning
and obviously right now all the coffee shops are closed
so I've been really becoming buddies with my Keurig.
And I like a lot of creamer with my coffee.
I'm like slowly trying to work my way down to black coffee
because Lord knows how much sugar I'm having in the morning
but you know it really gets me going.
A typical breakfast in the day,
in the day in the life, in the day in life of Lucy.
I really love eggs.
I like I always crave eggs but I think the breakfast
that I have most often is one slice of wheat toast
in the toaster twice, so let it pop up, put it down,
pop up again, down, so it's like really, really crispy,
and there is this almond butter.
It's honey vanilla almond butter by RX, I believe
and it's a little blue tub.
I'm gonna go grab it, hold on 'cause I'm not doing
a good job of explaining.
(air rustles)
Yes.
I was right.
It's RX nut butter, the vanilla--
I'm out of breath.
The vanilla almond butter flavor.
I probably put a little too much,
too big of a serving on
'cause I'm always like two tablespoons,
I probably have four to six.
Anyway, you slather that on,
you get a good banana and you chop it up
and then you get some local honey
and you just drizzle that one,
and if you're really feeling crazy,
you sprinkle a little cinnamon on,
get your cup of coffee,
seize the day.
So after breakfast--
I'll actually explain my quarantine day.
I'm letting myself sleep in till like 10,
sometimes 11 every day, which is unheard of for me.
I'm up at 6 a.m. all the time.
My body's a little out of whack.
So we're sleeping in, we're still making our toast,
we're still having our cup of coffee,
and then my dog Elvis, who sitting on the couch over there,
we go for our fist walk of the day around the neighborhood,
which varies from like 30 to 45 minutes.
We wave at our neighbors.
We say hello.
We listen to music.
We listen to true crime podcasts.
Usually, then I'll get my workout in
and so I just got a Peloton treadmill
and then I'll do like a livestream yoga
or I'll do a livestream training mate,
which is my favorite workout class in L.A.
SoulCycle, I miss SoulCycle so bad.
Just makes me happy.
It's like my church.
I just think exercise is the best medicine
that you could ask for
so it's a big part of my life, for sure.
After that's done, I've taught myself to cross stitch.
Right now I'm cross stitching a little pig.
He's super cute.
I'm reading.
I'm reading a really great book called
"Where the Crawdads Sing", which is just like
the most beautiful written book
I've read in a really long time.
Then we go on walk number two with Elvie.
A lot of FaceTime with family and friends
'cause I've been doing this quarantine alone.
I feel for people who are in a house
with someone they can't stand,
but I really feel (hands clap)
also for people who are doing this alone
because let me tell you, there have been tears.
But you know what, there will be an end to it all
and it'll be okay.
We got this.
The typical lunch for me would be sushi,
but like sashimi so just the fish on top of rice.
There's a place near me that does yellowtail and jalapeno
with yuzu sauce.
And then there albacore tuna with crispy onions.
I even like uni, which is sea urchin.
I love it all.
I'm a very adventurous eater.
Yes, snacks always.
Snacks 24 seven.
I'm the biggest snacker.
We love--
We, me, pita bread and hummus, any kind of hummus.
Red pepper, original, pine nut, garlic,
they even have like Thai curry hummus
and taco-inspired hummus.
But if we're going a healthier route like celery hearts,
which is the center of the celery.
It's the best part.
And carrots and when I have carrots I share them with Elvis
'cause my dog Elvis loves carrots.
But I also love this candy called Sweet Treats.
(bell dings) and it's like the
healthier candy and they have these peach rings,
they have Swedish fish, gummy bears, sour gummy bears.
I think it's like less than 100 calories per bag
and it's not like you get three pieces.
That's why I'm always so pissed off.
You get a bag of candy and it's like
three pieces for 200 calories.
No, this bag is--
You get like 15 pieces.
You should ask my mom this question.
Does Lucy get hangry?
Oh my goodness. (dramatic instrumental music)
My mom used to say even as a little girl
she would have to fill her purse with snacks
because the second (finger snaps)
Lucy turned hungry it was game over.
And I still to this day get really hangry
but I'm not like screaming and crying anymore,
but I can't focus, I can't talk, I get irritable.
(cheerful instrumental music)
I also love a good ice cream bar or Greek yogurt bar.
I have these chocolate chip cookie dough ones
in my fridge right now.
But yes, to answer your question, love snacking.
Snacks, snacks, snacks.
I just got way off topic.
Lunch. (chuckles)
Sushi or like a good salad.
I know that's so boring like who craves salad
but I love a good kale salad with like a blackened salmon.
But here's the thing about my salads,
I like a lot of dressing so it's like
a little salad with my dressing.
Sometimes I even do ranch.
I know, it's bad.
It's great, ranch is great.
Ranch is the best thing ever.
- I love your product, man.
I love your product.
- What else do I have for lunch?
I love a club sandwich.
I made one the other day.
This isn't the healthy route but it's the good route.
So you butter two sides of wheat toast
and you brown them
and then in another pan you fry an egg (chuckles)
and on the fried egg I put vegan cheddar cheese
but you can put whatever cheese you want on the egg
so it likes melts and then I grilled up some turkey bacon,
I got some nitrate-free turkey breast,
slice up some heirloom tomatoes.
Can't forget the avocado.
I had a very, very, very ripe avocado
and then crushed red pepper,
a little bit of mayo, a little bit of mustard.
(hands clap)
Smack that into--
♪ Smack that kid on the floor ♪
It reminded me of that song.
But the sandwich is like this big
so I had a problem eating it but it was very good.
So we love a sandwich.
Favorite food city?
Ooh.
I recently went to Barcelona
and that is a food city.
I'm not even certain what I ate at some of these places.
(hands clap) This was the weirdest thing
I ate in Barcelona.
Peeled white asparagus mixed with sea urchin, uni,
just the orange goop.
But it was interesting, you know.
I think that's the coolest thing about travel
is tasting other cultures foods.
It's the best way to experience a city in my opinion.
So usually what I do at work,
I'll Postmates something.
I'm a big soup eater.
I think this last season of "Katy Keene"
I think I solely survived on wonton soup,
chicken wonton soup and pho, vegetarian pho.
I choose vegetarian broth
and there's a bunch of veggies in there
and I put tofu and cilantro, basil, the hot sauce,
beansprouts, and it's just so comforting.
I think 'cause it was cold in New York
I just went through a soup phase.
We can cheat meal lunch.
Well usually if I'm gonna cheat I go cheat meal dinner
and my favorite, my absolute favorite, favorite,
well I love food so it's hard to choose a favorite
but shoestring French fries with a buttermilk ranch dressing
and like a really good burger.
There's a place in L.A. called Stout.
Great meat, really interesting combinations.
Like they put fig on one with caramelized onions
but mainly I'm the person who
I always have to have French fries
otherwise what's the point.
That's my cheat meal.
And a diet Coke. (croaks)
I like to eat kind of an early dinner
between like five and six.
I know that's really early.
Sometimes my friends wanna go to dinner at 9 p.m.
I was like, "You know who you're talking to."
I will be in REM sleep at the table
if we go to dinner at 9 p.m.
Okay, so recently I have a newfound love of Thai curry.
I don't know why it took me 30 years to discover
that I love curry and I'm the type of person
that I'll have the same thing,
like the same thing for breakfast, the same thing for lunch,
same thing for dinner over and over and over again
until I'm sick of it and don't want it for another year
so I'm on a Thai curry phase.
That's probably my favorite meal as of now
but also bolognese.
I love bolognese, I love pasta.
I'm so guilty of in bed and being like,
"I want a snack.
"I'm bored."
I bored-eat, too.
Oh my goodness, frozen grapes.
It's like eating little popsicles.
It's so good.
When I have a sweet tooth
'cause I have such a major, major sweet tooth
I always want dessert, I always want something sweet
after a meal.
So if you learn one thing from this video
freeze your grapes.
And that is just about every single thing I eat in a day.
So thank you guys for watching.
Stay safe out there.
