Photos Taken Over The Weekend!

Eating Healthy!

As most of you know I recently had Lap Band surgery. I have lost a total of 35 pounds, and I hope to get rid of 15 more pounds before I see my Doctor again before the Christmas Holiday.

Last weekend I was so happy because I found a store that sells Lo-Carbs, that is right here in LA. It is called Lo Carb-U Foods. I would have never guessed that they had a store like that right here in my neighborhood.

I went to buy the following items: The elite uno pizzas... the choclic brownies... the Jalapeno Hummus... I really like this store... I could spend a few hours here. The only problem is that low-carb food is expensive, and I have to make sure that I don’t go over my budget. Still, it's great to get all your low-carb stuff locally, and not online.

Workout Week Schedule Coming!

Quantum of Solace

If you like non-stop action then you will love the new bond movie, “Quantum Of Solace.” I have to admit that I have never been to a Bond Film, so this was my first time going into the World of 007! I actually enjoyed it.

Quantum of Solace is jammed with lots of action and there is never a dull moment in the film.

There are some awesome (do people still say that word), foot chases, fast speed boats, and an aerial pursuit that is very exciting!

New Photo of Me!

I kinda like how I look in this photo. I am standing next to my roommate/business partner's sister.

Laid Back Weekend!

This has to be the first weekend in a while where I did not go to the movies, which means I have nothing to report. I did have a different kind of weekend. Friday after work, I started to crave pizza, but because of the band I did not get any, instead I had a veggie burrito without the bread. It was not that bad... Saturday I found an interesting store that has items to eat that are only low-carb, It is on Melrose and I think it is called U-Carb???????? or something like that. Once I have the correct name I will post it.

Since we are still looking for talent for our feature project, I went on a casting search at Beverly Hills High School. The drama department performed the play, "The Visit," by Friedrich Durrenmatt. It was very interesting and there were several young people that we are inviting to our casting..I hope that we find a young actor soon! I like the audition process, but it would be so much fun to start shooting! This play was also a date for Joshua and I; I am not sure that he enjoyed it because, he was stressed out about everything, but he did say that he had a good time.

Sunday was a great day because I went to a workshop presented by Sammy's Camera on how to operate your camera. As you know I recently purchased a Nikon D80, but I was having a rough time on understanding the various settings. The workshop was very good because now I totally get how my camera works.... Thank God! for this workshop because I was wondering if this camera was worth it!

Also I had pizza! I have to say that the band is great because after two thin slices, I could fill the band getting tight, so I just stopped, and did not even try to finish the second slice. While at the Dr's on Thursday I found out that I can now start back working out and that I lost a total of 35 pounds....I really don't see it, but I can tell that I do feel a lot better. I think this week, I am going to workout doing the following:

Monday: DVD Tape
Tuesday: TBA
Wednesday: Yoga
Thursday: Cardo
Friday: TBA

Wish me luck!

Soul Man! Boy Do I miss the Mac Man!

This film was not the greatest, but it does give you a chance to remember how funny Bernie Mac was!
Samuel Jackson usually brings his serious attitude to the screen but this time we get to see his funny and sweet side. Jackson really brings it to this movie, especially in the parts that Jackson and Mac are singing! Who knew they could? Lots of foul language in the film, but it adds to the film, and gives the characters a raw edge.
This movie is definitely a tribute to Mac and Hayes.

Going Back to the College Years!

Yesterday, while I was at home, I started to go on Youtub and I came across the video below. I can’t believe Christopher Williams, still has it going on….. After watching the video I had to go out and get the CD with all of the songs. I remember when I was in college and my friends and I would listen to his CD, Bell Biv Devo, and Al B Sure.. Just thinking about that made me want to go back to college and re-live those years again! Wow! that was so much fun!

Remember This?

OUR FIRST FAMILY! They Are So Beautiful!

One of the Greatest Weeks Of My Life!

Wow! What a week! This has to be one of the most exciting weeks of my life! This was the week that being black, has been the most important thing in my life! I never thought that I would live to see a black president of the United States. I have been on cloud nine, since Barack won! I am so hopeful for the future of our country!
