I had a bit of a scare yesterday. My head was hurting all day long. I had checked my BP in the morning and it was a little on the high side, but not too bad, I assumed it was just a fluke as it has been normal and on my visit to the doctor last week he said we will be working toward getting off the medication completely. Anyway, by the time I got home after a special afternoon service, it was reaching the level of torment. So I checked my BP and sure enough it was "hypertension emergency" high. I called a couple of friends to pray with me and just laid down for bed. I remember my doctor said don't work out when it's high because that'll make it go higher. I decided not to go to the ER because I know for a fact I've been doing my part, and I felt like I just needed to trust God.
Later on in the night I woke up and took it and it was coming down, then this morning it was up again, but by the time I left for work it was in the acceptable range. Thank you Lord!
As for weight loss, I am stoked because I am losing again. For about a week my weight stayed pretty much the same and I was getting a little worried. We have had more potlucks in the last two weeks at work than we've had all year, lol! But I'm happy to report, I've currently lost about 16 lbs. YAY!
Spiritually, I just have so much I could say, but please pray for me. God is really blessing in ministry, but with that there have been a lot of struggles and uncomfortable places. I am determined, however, to keep going.
