Trying to get back to my old self

The last couple of months have had me in a whirlwind. I feel like I have no time to do anything. Homework consumes all my time. I've been so tired that most days I'm in bed by 10:30. SERIOUSLY!! I know, hard to believe but it's true.

I had to go to the dr. yesterday because I was having problems with my eyes. Turned out to be pink eye. While at the doc's I had to be weighed and I gained 12 lbs. I was so disappointed I wanted to cry. But I knew that skipping my workouts and eating on the run was not helping the situation. So back onto www.myfooddiary.com and to my workouts. I MUST make time for this. So, my goal is to drop the 12 lbs. by the end of October. Gives me a month and a half. Should be doable. Hopefully this will help with the energy loss and the over sleeping. LOL You all know Marlo McBoing Boing likes to stay up late. LOL

On a happier note, I think I found a printer that is going to be able to do my pattern printing. They are located in Indiana, down in the tri-state area. After months of going back and forth we finally got things ironed out. I'm looking forward to getting some more patterns printed up. Won't be right away, but should happen in the next month. That reminds me, I need to have my sister update my MySpace page. I have a ton of new purses to post. Some are super duper cute too!

On a sad note, many of my dearest friends will be flying to Portland, Oregon this weekend to hang out and just have a girl's weekend. It was planned for me to attend but my schedule and finances just didn't cooperate this time. Totally bummed that I won't be there. Jim is so going to have to pamper me this weekend.

Hope all is well with everyone,
XOXO~~MARLO

i'm bummed too. totally!! i really was looking forward to seeing you and giving you a huge hug!!!! you will be there in our hearts though.

i hear ya on the gaining weight thing. i am struggling so badly and it's so frustrating and i just can't get myself on a routine that sticks with the chemo schedule i lead. anyways, i have a goal to lose 30# by xmas. not sure it's doable, but i'm going to try (sooner rather than later i hope!)

sleep is your friend. keep going to bed early and getting lots of it! your body needs it to rest and repair and to lose weight! and drink a ton of water!!!!
