Morning Readers!
This is going to be a quick up date since I should of been out the door to work like 5 minutes ago.
Work out recap:
Monday- worked out for an hour
Tuesday - No work out :(
Wednesday - morning and afternoon work out (1 hour each)
Thursday - worked out for an hour
Friday- Sunday- To be announced, but planning on working out (maybe another hike, like last weekend if the weather is good!)
As far as food wise, doing a lot better... staying under my calorie goals, juice, tea and water main drink, less sugar intake.
My push up challenge is going well, I am a little behind from not completing some, so I have some catching up to do!
How's it going for you all??

Tell me a secret Tuesday ~ 52nd round
Welcome, to the 52nd round of: 
{idea brought to you by Life In Quotations via POST SECRETS.}
This is a chance to anonymously share some secrets you've been keeping to yourself. They can be small secrets, big secrets, scary secrets, juicy secrets, depressing secrets...There's no judging, anything and everything is valid.
In case your new around here, or just simply forgot the rules here's how it works:
1) This is open to anyone who wants to participate, from regular follower to casual visitor.
2) Post a secret anonymously, no names please.
3) I don't plan to censor content or language. However I do reserve the right to remove anything which appears to be posted with the sole intent of offending.
4) I am doing this because I know we all have secrets to hide, we all need someone to listen, and we all need to know that someone is going through something simular.
5) and remember... one of these secrets, will be mine.
So leave your secret below... for everyone knows, we all have one.

Movie Rating: Safe House


We saw "Safe House" this weekend and it did not disappoint. I thought that Ryan and Denzel played their characters to the T. This movie was very action packed and delivered the thrill. I give it 5/5. It's a movie you should def. take your man too ;)
Have you seen it? Do you want too? Thoughts?

Movie Rating: The Vow


"I vow to help you love life, to always hold you with tenderness and to have the patience that love demands, to speak when words are needed and to share the silence when they are not and to live within the warmth of your heart and always call it home." - Paige (Rachel's character)
Despite the comments about the movie not living up to their expectations or "The Notebook", I thought it was wonderful. Sure it doesn't compare to The Notebook, but who said it was going too? Its a completely different story line. It's INSPIRED by a true EVENTS, which is why some people are disappointed, because it doesn't match up to the real story line, however that is why it was INSPIRED by true events, not exactly the same. All in all, I thought it was witty, funny, romantic and cute. I thought Channing's character did an amazing job portraying his love for Rachel's character in the movie. The boyfriend laughed and smiled a lot more than I have seen him in a lot of girl movies. He also mentioned afterwards that it was a lot more realistic than The Notebook (boyfriend is all about what could happen, not the fairytales.)
I really liked it. I love Channing Tatum and I love Rachel Mc Adams... this is one movie, I say go see in theater and I will be buying.
Do you want to see it? Have you? Thoughts?

Firm Friday - Updates
Hello readers,
I hope that you are as excited as I am that it is Friday, because let me tell you, I am stinkin' so happy.... and being that it's Friday, it means its Firm Friday link up time.
Here is my recap of the week:
Monday: Worked out for an 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Tuesday: Work out for 2 hours and 30 minutes
Wednesday: Work out for 2 hours and 15 minutes.
Thursday: work out for 1 hour (30 mins elliptical, the rest weights and ab's)
Friday: To be announced.
I know right? coming from the girl that would hardly spend 30 minutes at the gym... I am just as surprised as you are...but seriously ladies (and gents), its true what they say... eventually once you get past the hump of the pain and tiredness, etc, working out is fun and you begin to crave it.. and oh I crave it!
Still no soda. SOOO much less carbs and calories (I actually have to eat MORE than I want to ensure I am eating enough calories so my brain doesn't starve). Lots and lots of fruit and veggies.
How is everyone else doing??
