Sorry it's been so long!

This last week has been very busy! I will start by updating you on my leg. The infection appears to have cleared up. I currently am just left with a hole in my leg that continues to heal from the inside out ( kind of funny...being the name of my blog!) The doctor said it would take about another week for the main hole to heal up, so I still have to go to the doctor every M, W and F to get the hole packed until then and then it would have to undergo the normal scabbing process etc. to complete it's healing. So we are looking at about another 2 weeks and should be completely healed! I am looking forward to being able to wear jeans and real pants again in 2 weeks, and being healed of course!

School has been very busy. Our semester is split up kind of funny, so I actually have a final tomorrow and I end 2 classes tomorrow, and I start 2 new classes on Monday. So needless to say this last week has been very busy with winding down for the end of my Fundamentals classes. It has also been extra stressful due to the fact that my doctor is Winchester, school is in Muncie and I have school from 8-5 on Mondays and Wednesdays, so I have been having to rush around and work with my professors to get stuff done quickly and then leave early to go to the doctor and be back in time for the second half of our day. So a lot of rushing around has been going on. We have had several tests in the last week and I am really looking forward to the "2 week" break that we have coming up. We will only have class on M and R for two weeks, although I am sure I will spend a lot of that time getting ahead on other stuff for when clinicals start, so it won't truly be a break ,but hopefully it will be a bit of one in comparison to the last 5 weeks.

The weight loss continues to go well. I have currently lost 35.5 pounds since 7/28/08. so things are going well. I was not on my diet at all last week due to not feeling well and not having much of an appetite. But I am back on it now and I surprisingly did not gain any weight last week, I just maintained! So things are back on track and heading in the right direction!

Everything else is going well. I am just ready to be done with going to the doctor every other day and that will help alleviate some of my stress. Thanks for the prayers, they have been greatly appreciated!
