cocobutt's Journal, 11 November 2010

I know I must be patient, but it is rather odd that my body doesn't want to go any lower than 170.6. I've been in this range since about Oct. 28. I could use more exercise, and I need to cut out the cup of cocoa I've been having at night and see what happens.

Yesterday, I wrote about an unusual, sorta prophetic dream I had. What struck me was that throughout the day, I kept having things come up that would remind me of death and illness. I was asked to work on a project for kids with cancer. Then when I was getting my hair cut, my stylist was telling me about his other job in an assisted living home. He told about the many times he's held hands with the dying and helped them pass away. It was making me tear up when he talked about how someone would hold on to life until he could hold them or comfort them and tell them it was okay. And I learned that the person I dreamed about was in hospice and had a 2-day process of slipping away from this world. I hope yesterday wasn't one of those "universe is talking to you" days.

12:15pm Had to share this pic of my beautiful, delicious lunch. Pan grilled salmon on spinach with assorted yummy stuff.

170.6 lb Lost so far: 41.4 lb.    Still to go: 20.6 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
