Days of Our Lives star Abigail Klein, who is best known for her role as Stephanie on the hit Peacock soap, recently opened up about her best kept secrets. And by that we mean how she keeps fit and what she eats on a daily basis. Here’s what you need to know.
Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, the brunette beauty opened up about what she eats in a typical day. She said, “For breakfast, I usually have oatmeal with some peanut butter, blueberries, cinnamon. Sometimes I’ll throw in some chia seeds and flax seeds. Lunch is some kind of rice, chicken and vegetable bowl. Salads are great. I love tuna salad with a bunch of greens and shaved carrots. I try to incorporate protein, some greens and healthy fats, like avocado. Dinner is kind of a free-for-all. Sometimes it’s pizza, I have to be honest. Sometimes it’s a really good, grass-fed burger. I always feel better when I eat something like salmon and a sweet potato and broccoli sprouts and asparagus. For snack foods, I love fruit and any kind of nut; I love peanut butter pretzels and Greek yogurt. I like to get as many vegetables in as I can and bonus if they’re varied in color; as many dark, leafy greens as I can. No one is really sitting around eating a bunch of kale, right? A way to do that for dinner is to sauté kale with garlic and olive oil.”
As far as her fitness routine is concerned, she said, “I love doing at-home Pilates. I subscribe to this Pilates instructor, Tasha Franken. I try to do a Pilates video three or four times a week. If I have a lot of energy, I’ll do a 40-minute one. If I’m waiting for dinner to cook and just have a little energy, I’ll do a 10-minute ab routine. I find that so much less daunting than going to a gym and figuring out what all the equipment is. Also, every day I like to do a long walk. I also just bought one of those little mini stair steppers. Now that it’s colder and the sun is setting earlier, on days when I’m getting home from work late, I can throw on my TV and do a little [stairstepping workout].”
Abigail also had some advice for her fans that are looking to adopt healthier eating habits. She said, “Putting it in your mind that you’re adding things, as opposed to taking away anything or limiting yourself. If I’m having pizza, I’ll have some sautéed spinach or kale with it. I’d rather add greens than feel like I have to take away pizza. That’s just no way to live.”
