1st unit done!

I know it has been awhile since I last blogged. I will do better about posting more frequently. My first unit oschool will be over thursday afternoon and I start the second unit on friday. I am very excited because I found out today I have a 4.0 in class. I know it has only been a month, however it has been a difficult one and I have worked extremely hard. My goal is to keep this grade point average for the next 5 months before I go out on my externship.
I have been praying alot about the externship. Even though it is a few months away I need time to pray and weigh options. If I had to make a decision today, I feel I am being lead to work in an Ob Gyn office. I have also been praying about a pediatric' s clinic as well as a plastic surgeon's office. Please keep this part of schooling in your prayers as I will be on externship for 2 months. I would like to be placed where the Lord sees fit for helping others in more ways than just being an M.A.
I am busy this week with a skit, paper and presentation, tests and studying. Other than this not much happening.
I am down about 60 pounds. I am feeling a little discouraged as I weighed after being on a liquid diet for two days and the scale says I am up three pounds. Although I know woman fluctuate 5-10 pounds, it is hard for me to see the scale go up when I hardly eat. I quit taking my medication for swelling after I had the dehydration and anxiety attack last week. This could be part of why I am up a bit. I relize my weight is not who I am, however it is a key to let me know where I stand. For me, it still seems to be a battle. The eating or not eating isn't so bad, it's the mental and emotional part that I struggle with the most. Please continue to pray for me, not so much that I keep losing weight because it is inevitable I will, but pray I can recover and heal in all aspects besides just physically and I can use this experience and lifestyle to glorify God. Lights out and good night!
