Now that I have found I can blog at work again, I thought I'd take advantage and talk some more crap.

I found my camera. I bet you didn't know (or care) that I lost my camera back at the start of May when I took my brother and his girlfriend to the airport. I never lose stuff, so I was quite perplexed, but I found it in the back pocket of the car seat last week. So this means I will have lots of photos to post again. It is funny that I lost my camera when I was at my biggest weight (when I wouldn't dream of having a photo taken of me) and then I found it when I am feeling better about myself. If I was religious at all I would say something about god giving us what we need, but I'll just put it down to a happy coincidence.

So everyone wanted to know if The Time Traveller's Wife was a good movie and I can say that I do recommend it. I have read the book, but it was so long ago that I can't quite recall how close it keeps to the story line. I will say that AJ was almost sobbing by the end of the film, so take your tissues! Honestly, I can't take him anywhere...
Over the last week I also saw Julie & Julia and Couples Retreat and I enjoyed both, but I always like the movies I see at the cinema because it is such a fun experience.

I have my end of the month weigh in happening this weekend and I am not feeling good about it. I just have a feeling that it hasn't happened for me this month and there have been far too many meals out (mostly small portions) and not enough exercise. I also have lunch out today and tomorrow for work and dinner out Saturday night. The good thing is that it doesn't bother me too much. In the past I would have tried to cancel any social events that interfere with the scales, but I feel confident that I will get the end result in the long run and I can have some fun along the way.

Do you have a favourite pump up song? I have noticed that every time I am at the gym and feeling slightly flat or like I can't be bothered, when I put on Stronger by Kanye West it just lifts me. I cycle twice as fast or I can lift twice as much and I feel amazing. We all know Kanye is a dick, but he makes some good work out music.
lol Kayne sure is a dick! Couldn't have said it better myself. I find anything by Pink (her faster songs) really get me going. Such a great beat that it gets me moving faster.. and how.
ReplyDeleteYou sound great today. I love your attitude. Keep moving forward :)
Re-education (Through Labour) by Rise Against gets me going!
ReplyDeleteI really want to see Julie and Julia! I don't think it's being released here (Japan) though? Which makes me a sad panda.
ReplyDeleteGawd I've got masses of favourite songs! American Sweethearts by Fallout Boy, Untiss Untiss by Bloodhound Gang, Heavy Cross by The Gossip, Bulletproof by La Roux, Hatin on the Club by Rihanna... sheesh I could go on and on! But they are some of them.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you about Kanye. He is a complete jerk, but his music is the BEST to work out too. I had Stronger as my "Powersong" on my Nike+ (you are supposed to hit the button when you need a pick me up) but I almost think I like Love Lockdown more to pump it up! :) I too rock out to Pink! And my playlist is about half Black Eyed Peas, followed by some Ashlee Simpson and Lady Gaga! :) Just built my workout playlist the other day, so I'm still thinking of what else I can put on there!
ReplyDeleteHey! I love that photo of you below! You look gorgeous! But I always thought you were gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteOne of my fave pump up songs is Queen "Don't stop me now".. I think that's the title... but it really gets me going!
I know this is a blast from the past, but the soundtrack from Flashdance is a great way to get you pumped and peddling....
