Hey Alta, you're looking gorgeous baby!

I'm so happy you're enjoying your job; you bring so much joy to others you should get it back with interest! :)

Hi Alta, I see you're too busy for the forum :D but wanted you to know that I am thinking of you & am sending you LOTS and LOTS of love, xoxoxoxoxoxo Cate
 

Hi sweet Alta, I felt like sharing this with you & have been thinking about you often.
I'm sending you lots and lots of love, xoxoxo Cate.

A Creed to Live By

"Don't undermine your worth by comparing
yourself with others,
It is because we are different that each
of us is special.

Don't set your goals by what other people
deem important,
Only you know what is best for you.

Don't take for granted the things closest
to your heart
Cling to that as you would your life, for without them life is meaningless.

Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or the future.
By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.

Don't give up when you still have something to give
Nothing is really over … until the moment
you stop trying.

Don't be afraid to admit that you are less
than perfect,
It is the fragile thread that binds us to each other.

Don't be afraid to encounter risks,
It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.

Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's
impossible to find.
The quickest way to receive love is to give love.

The fastest way to lose love is to hold on too tightly,
And the best way to keep love is to give it wings.

Don't dismiss your Dreams. To be without
dreams is to be without hope.
To be without hope is to be without purpose.

Don't run through life so fast that you forget
where you've been,
But also know where you're going.

Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored every step of the way."

Cate :grouphug:!! My Little Kuala bear!!! You are a doll, that was beautiful!! :D!!! I loved it!! Thank you for sharing. I think of you too, often!

Thank you for all those who stop by here! I love you guys!!!
 
Hi Alta, I'm glad you liked it. Hope life is treating you well sweets. I worry about you!
xoxoxo Cate
 
Hey friend!! So glad I stopped by today and read that message Cate left. It really touched me and I really needed the boost. I'm so proud of you for getting back into the 150's! You must be feeling on top of the world! Keep it going no matter what - unlike me. I should really start taking my own advise, lol. I've hit a low and now I'm ready to get back up again. Took a while for me to admit it.
 
Hi Cate!! No need to worry about me. LOL! :D!!! I'm fine, dear! But I will start blogging my journey on Insanity & Chalean Extreme in a day or so, and I'm going to be around much more!

Lisa, I hear you. It happens. Story of our lives. Glad you are back! :grouphug: I would come around for you most often. It gets lonely in here. LOL!!!


~I just came back from camping this past weekend & it was amazing to the fact that I have still steered clear from alcohol. Today is day 60 of NO ALCOHOL! I'm telling you. I count for the fuck of it now, not because I want to drink. I have actually booked a COUPLES cruise for me & two other couples. It's going to be so amazing!!! :jump: Sept 9th it leaves for 3 days from Long Beach to Ensenada. Should be fun!

I will drink then. Not to get sick either though. By then, it will be 6 months no alcohol.

I'm reading a book called,
Drinnking a Love Story- And I realize that I want to be even more alcohol free because it is scarry that I resonate with the author way more times than I want to.

Live & learn. Day by day. Meal by meal. Push Play by play. WE CAN DO IT!!!

I'm waiting for my new Beachbody program to come in the mail! YEA YEA!! :jump: Chalean Extreme & Also Insanity! I'm going to do a hybrid and start a 90 day program from NOW UNTIL CRUISE TIME!!! YEA!!!!! This time, I'm excited because I have NO alcohol in my life! Bam!!! Control! :D! I mess up a lot though. This week I had enough chocolate to fill Charlie and the chocolate factory!

Hugs, Alta

Think of the falling light.
The lube of presence.
The awakening of joy.
The light in life of love undone.
The words for air carried travel.
Vibrations of energy.
Signals of strength.
Signs of time.
Made in love.
Twinkles of clarity.
Sparkling hope.
Shining silver.
The gold within.
Measure no moment.
Mile untaken.
Journey for spirit.
See & be forgiven.

Alta. Just a thought in the journey of the mind.
 
I took a Raw preperation class this morning! It was amazing! $20 & the chef gives you loads of recipes. I feel that I'm in an appreciation mode of my life right now. I find that I often go into these places, where all I can do is appreciate myself & the life I desire to live. It's almost a spirit greatness that propells me to live, and joy to survive for the spreading of greatness. I know of no other words to describe. That's my journey, right now.

:beating: I am feeling so grateful each & every day! I have joy, I have life, I have ability, I have time, I have today. I find that I'm now pushing, and becoming the person I've always wanted to be, because I finally decided to accept me, just as me. To expect no change, yet only of the reprucussions of perpetual happiness. When I am happy and grateful, I align with complete wholeness. Wholeness to appreciate, my body, my mind, and my health.

My life.

It's been 71 days that I do not drink alcohol.

I now appreciate myself.

I set goals. I follow them. I try and achieve them. I fall. I get up. I fall. I get up.

It's okay. We make mistakes. I'm learning, we are learning. Keep the fight.

The fight to grow. To accept positive change.

To be the best version of ourselves, we can be.

Here is my latest youtube click of myself for my Beachbody Accountability group on Facebook. :)

~Peace & Light~ :grouphug:!

Here are some of the raw dishes... :) YUMMMM!! Also, wanted to post an arm side by side. Damn those fuckn arms! LOL!
 
Hi Alta, You are looking gorgeous! My Internet is slow today(been 'shaped' to slow speed) & I couldn't watch your youtube link properly but will tomorrow. You look stunning sweetie. I would swap those arms any day for my 58 year-old ones. I'm back doing weights again though but will have to check out this shakeology thing. My LH might die laughing if I get one though!
Lots of love to you sweets, Mwah! xoxo Cate.
