Chocolate Milk=Flat abs?!?

I found this in an article on yahoo about drinks that keep you healthy.
The full article can be found here.

Chocolate milk keeps your abs flat. A glass of skim chocolate milk delivers a great combo of carbs and protein, helping you recover after a workout. Athletes who drank it post-workout had lower levels of muscle damage after four days of intense exercising than those who guzzled water or other recovery drinks, according to findings presented at the American College of Sports Medicine meeting in Seattle. That translates to less soreness and fatigue, so you can get back to the gym and those tummy-toning planks sooner. Simply stir 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder or syrup that has less than 20 g sugar into your milk and sip. 





I guess I will go drink chocolate milk then!

My latest movie review...



I watched "Remember Me". It stars Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin. I was kind of skeptical because, yes, Robert Pattinson is adorable, but I didn't know how well he would do in a non-bloodsucking movie. I must say that this movie is a gem. Robert and Emilie take you on one hell of an emotional rollercoaster, and there is a crazy surprise at the end. The end is like an "Oh shit!" moment for the watchers. What I was most surprised by was how amazing Robert's acting was. All I had to go off of was some awkward kissing scenes in Twilight followed by even more awkward dialogue. But you can tell that he was physically and emotionally invested in this character. You believed it. OH and the little girl who plays his sister, Ruby Jerins, is the next Dakota Fanning! She is another one of those amazing dramatic child actors.

I would definitely watch it again and would recommend it to anyone. Though, to all the young Twilight fans, you are not allowed to see it until you are at least 16! ....There's a couple "scenes". haha
