I'm doing 30 things
It was an okay movie. Great to see the famous quotes in their original use. Definitely can see how it was rated one of the number 1 out of 100 for it’s cultural impact. But it didn’t grab me as much as other movies have. Giving it benefit of doubt based on it’s massive impact on culture and the fact that Harry Met Sally ruined the ending for me ;)

How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: I joined www.myfitnesspal.com and monitored what I ate honestly and lost the weight pretty quickly. I lost roughly 4lbs a month without working out. Had I had time to work out I'd likely have lost more like 8lbs a month, the allowed 2lbs a week would have been lost with that little extra effort. I recommend using myfitnesspal to anyone. It counts the calories for you and makes it so easy. :) Read how I did it…
It made me
thrilled!
How I did it: packed, left, never looked back. What more could I possibly say about it. It's not as scary as it may seem, rip it off like a band aid and you'll be glad to be out. Read how I did it…
It made me
Unsure 
How I did it: I had a lot going on in my life from jobs - pregnancy & then a new baby. So sadly it took me forever to get into it. Read and re-read the first chapter over and over again. Finally got into it. Read how I did it…

I’m torn with my rating. I wasn’t at the edge of my seat, I wasn’t addicted…however, I already knew the ending thanks to Simpsons. I’m unsure if I’d have had a different reaction had I not already known the ending or if I’d have predicted the ending. I’m not sure and I’ll never know. However, I can agree that for the most part I’m sure Rosebud at one point was the best kept secret of cinema. Psycho would be another one. ;)
It wasn’t a terrible movie and I’ve enjoyed all variations of it I unknowingly watched so I must assume that I’d have enjoyed it more had I not already watched several variations of it. Certainly some great dialogue among the characters and their descriptions of things such as, “He was trying to remove the quotes.” and “Everything was his idea, except for me leaving him” were well written. Great acting as well, especially considering the actors were mostly new to cinema. The blonde pulled off an amazingly annoying bitch for her big scene so bravo there. ;)
It was great. By the halfway point I knew I wasn’t going to make 3km today. Just before 2/3 of the way I started dropping f-bombs and by 3/4 my abs were killing me under my ribs! But I wanted it so I pushed and made it :)
