Oh dear. Bad news. Haha, I've not been able to make it to the gym like, 2 months. It's been really sad. I have eczema on my upper lip and from past experience, I know that when I get sweaty my lip/eczema gets worse. I'm not sure why my eczema acts up like this sometimes. Some times it's just a few days at a time other times its weeks. In this case, it's months. It hurts and is embarrassing and not fun. Anyway, also, my family doesn't cook the healthiest kinds of foods... hehe, but it is darn good food. Because of all this, I haven't done well on the weight loss. In fact, I've gained about back about 5 to 7 pounds. Gross, I know and I feel really disgusting. It probably doesn't help that I go to bed around 2 or 3 am every night. You do know that getting a good amount of sleep helps your body maintain and/or lose weight, right? I only have another week till we leave for home in UT and then I'll get to go back to the gym! I'm really excited about that. If any friends reading this are in Orem or Provo or American Fork I'd be happy to go to the gym with you! :) Yay.

Update: (12/14) It turns out I've only gained back about 3 pounds. Wow, that's a big difference. The scale I use is an analog scale (with the needle pointer, you know?) and today I stepped onto a digital scale and was pleasantly surprised to see a lower number than I'd expected. Sweet.
It's so hard to eat healthy with family, especially when the food is so good! And hey, 3 pounds isn't bad at all.
