(CBS Seattle) — A Seattle woman reportedly ate and drank nothing but items from Starbucks for all of 2013.

According to a report from KING 5, the woman, Beautiful Existence, challenged herself to only eat and drink items bought at the local coffee chain — or its partner stores. Even on Thanksgiving and her birthday, the mother of two stuck to her routine.

Existence, 40, documented her adventure on her personal blog called 1 Woman, 1 Year, 1 Challenge. Though she claims to have lost weight from the endeavor, she admits she spent close to $8,000 on food for the year — that works out to be roughly $600 each month.

As shown on her blog, Existence follows a new life challenge each year. In 2011, she shopped only at Goodwill stores.
