Well, I did it again tonight, you guys! I did another hour on the treadmill! I’m really proud of myself and I felt SO good afterwards. Who knew?! :) (I know…you all did.) I can guarantee you, though, there’s no chance of me becoming a workout demon!
I think I may take tomorrow night off, just so I don’t overdo it and do too much too quickly. But I plan on being right back on it Wednesday night.
Tonight’s hour actually went by faster than last night, because I was watching a movie. Last night, I had kind of a hard time hearing the TV over the treadmill and the sound of my feet, and I didn’t want to turn it up too loud since it was kind of late. So tonight I got creative. I dragged out my portable DVD player, plopped it down on the book holder, pulled out some headphones and went to town. I watched the movie “Chooch.” Since I thought Carmine Famiglietti was awesome in “Lbs.” and “Amexicano,” I decided to bump up “Chooch” in my netflix queue. Here’s the trailer:
Carmine was great, as always, but the movie was…interesting. When I saw one of the first scenes in the movie, my reaction was “um, I don’t know about this” and to be honest, could have totally done without that scene. If you’ve seen it or see it, you’ll know which one I’m talking about. But I have to admit that while a bit cheesy, the movie turned out to be completely different than what I expected based on the beginning of the movie. I was pleasantly surprised as it actually had quite a few touching scenes. And as I said, Carmine was terrific. He’s got a bright future.
I think I’m going to buy “Amexicano” soon and “Lbs.” for sure when it is released on DVD, but I think I might pass on this one. (Editor’s note: I lied, I ordered it today) Of course, Carmine wrote both “Amexicano” and “Lbs.” (co-written by Matthew Bonifacio) and both were directed by Matthew, so that might have something to do with the quality of the stories.
In other “Lbs.” related news, I got up this morning (well, yesterday now) to see the cast preside over the Nasdaq opening bell (for the all of 10 seconds that they showed). Here’s a link with pics.
Anyway…today’s weigh in day. Keep your fingers crossed for me and I’ll check in later today with an update!
Hey I loved the clip of the movie and I can not wait to watch it. Good luck on your weigh in today..

Thanks, Debbie! I think your good wishes made all the difference! Let me know if you see that movie and what you think!
Wow Pam! Another hour! You go girl! I think the key is the distraction of the movie. I am definitely going to have to look into getting me a portable dvd player. lol I’m sure that will be much cheaper than having the satellite installed.
Thanks for the clip as well. I’ve never heard of this one before, but I like the previews. It looks like something Ernest would watch, too. lol I’m going to see if I can rent it at the local Movie Gallery.
Thanks Pam!
