Hola! I just had a great day of eats and relaxin’ and all that jazz. Post-marathon recovery, oh yeah!

Except I had a major food disappointment this morning…

I found this red Peanut M&M on the floor under my desk today and got excited! YES!!! A random candy just for me Smile

i thought this was a m and m (800x600)

Except, it was a tiny sugar plum tomato. Then, I was sad.

Lunch was not sad though – I even did my happy ‘I’m going to eat’ dance!!

hooray for lunch (600x800)

I an doing a project with Lean Cuisine to get you some ##MMMotivateMeLC to get healthy in the new year. So, all the LC talk got me craving some of my old favorites.

I usually pick the pizzas first but went with a stir fry this time because I was craving rice.

Follow #MMMotivateMeLC to see some of the run and motivation Winking smile It’s a fun take on the usual motivation and I had a great time putting together some updates for ya! Follow me on twitter and instagram for our random version of workout motivation.

LC food at home

I also was productive and ran some errands. They should have included getting M&Ms but I didn’t… #Fail

In other news my mom came to visit and we saw Wild. It was good! I got the book for Christmas and now I really want to read it since the move had a lot of flashbacks, but not details.

And with that I should call it a day. See ya tomorrow!

Question: What was the last movie you saw?

      Saw V for Vendetta for the first time not long ago…O_o

      Also this article is important. I can workout, keep a diet, etc. But running? It always comes the hardest for me, unless I’m going to/away from something!

      That’s how I always get myself to finish a run! Just think of all the food I can eat after!

      Last I saw was Mockingjay which I really enjoyed. Dying to see Unbroken!

      Let us have your review of the book – haven’t read the book or seen the movie. So which one should I go for?

      I tend to want to get home because it’s where the candy is but that’s still pretty much the same philosophy! 🙂

      I read Wild last year and it was great! I think Reese did a great job at portraying Cheryl. I totally ran out of run motivation yesterday AND i got a horrible stomach ache so I had to walk home in shame……lame!

      For Christmas my brother and sister in law gave us free movie tickets so we are hoping to catch American Sniper with Bradley Cooper. Well at least that’s what I think it’s called.

      The last movie I saw was Silver Linings Playbook. I quit watching it halfway through because it was a little boring, and majorly disappointing. I have heard Wild is great from several others!

      Wild looks so good!! I haven’t seen a movie in a theater in forever! Last weekend I did a Leo movie night at home with The Great Gatsby and Wolf of Wallstreet.

      I think the last movie I saw in the theater was Hunger Games – the second one…last year. At home we watched Divergent the other night, similar to Hunger Games.

      I just bought the book and started it last night. I always like to read books before I see the movies, but then no one wants to sit with me because I always complain about how the book is better.

      I watched 4 minute mile on Netflix. The hubs (who is not a runner but knows how much I love it) suggested it. I think he was trying to make me happy because he wanted sex. It worked.

      I was going to see Wild this weekend but I wasn’t sure if it was going to be good or one of those really slow, drawn out movies. Looks like I should go see it!

      hmmmm… I’m not sure what the last movie I saw (in the theater) was? The last movie I saw at home was Love Actually right before christmas- such a good movie 🙂

      Just saw Wild last night and agree – read the book, too! I’m picky about movies-from-books, but this one did a great job with it. However, the book does give a WAY more in-depth look at the back stories and it makes all the difference. Enjoy.

      Ha that is a bummer about the cherry tomato 😉 The last movie I saw (in the theater) was Horrible Bosses 2. It was funny, but not as funny as the first. Still funny though!

      The last movie I saw at a cinema was Fury, with Brad Pitt. That was ages ago! I think it’s time to return, and I was hoping to see Wild too!
