What are your healthy "must have" foods in your home?? I'd love more excellent ideas (:
For me it's:
Cottage Cheese
Greek Yogurt
Bananas
Eggs
Sucralose
Coffee!! (ok so neither healthy nor not healthy but still)
And the list could go on... Others?

    Ha. Anyhow. Awesome stuff. I agree with having chicken as well. So good in protein.

    Mmm.. yeah I use flax seed here and there.. it's ok. I use it to up my protein a bit but it's honestly not that high in it and has more carbs and calories than I care to add. If it had more protein than that would be another story. Carbs are good. If ate properly.
    I honestly would like to get some protein powder here someday.
