COOKIES??? :D! Unless they are OREOS ..I really don't know anything about them!! :smilielol5:!

...sad, but true.
 
Ok so at the top of your screen it should have some options just under where you type a website. Go to tools - Internet options and then under browsing history there is a spot there to delete them. Hope that helps. I suck at computers too!
 
Hi. I just wanted to say sorry for not visiting much these past weeks. Life has been fantastically busy and I'm trying to stay on top of it all. I hope your weight loss and exercise are going well.
 
Hi Alta,

Just stopping in while I get a few spare minutes - (a rare thing nowadays!) keep up the hard work, looks like it's all going well for you :)

My portions are still going well you'll be pleased to know :D;)

Have a good day xoxo
 
Hello Hello Up in this LONELY Biatch!!! :D!! :reddevil:!!!!.....""Have I told you,..lately, that I miss you!!!! You fill my heart with GLADNESS, take away all my sadness...EASE MY TROUBLES, that's what you do!! " (my baby serenade to you guys.. ...did you like it!?!?! ) :smilielol5:!!!!

....well, I'll just say, if you OWN a karaoke machine..."I'll come over!!" hahah!!!.....My favorite song to sing is..."What's LOVE Got to do with it!" Tina Turner Biatches!! hahah!! :D!!

...Alright , Alright ..down to the Nitty Gritty!!! :D!!!

.....Since the last time I was here, knocked the dust of my Journal's PusssssAAAAyyyy....;) haha (you have to have seen the movie "Friday")...a lot has happened!!...Let me just tell you!!!

...ON THE HOME FRONT:
SO since I moved out of my boyfriend's place and back to my mom's during the week, things have been STUPENDOUS with me and him! Literally, better than when we first met, cause now I have the same enthusiasm for him as in the beginning 5 years ago, just now I love him. Whereas before, I didn't even like the way his hair kinda curled. haha....Now ask me: "Omg, I love the lil baby curlie Q's" HAHAHA!!!
...Oh the way love works! ...so funny how the tables turn. But yes, speaking of turning that's exactly what happened. The LIFE and Happiness came back into the relationship. The twinkle in the eyes for each other is BACK, the caring nature and pure smiles is BACK! The true gratitude to squeeze the shit out of each other is BACK!! And the true I miss you feelings are back. The clarity in mind my mind is BACK!!....Basically...yes,...MY MOJO IS BACK!!! hahah!

....I mean, we communicate much better, we laugh, we play more (in all ways..hehe), we sing, we bed dance, chair dance too...:smilielol5:...not that we didn't before, but now it's just plain ol FUN!!!....above all...He's my REAL friend again!!!...crazy, but true. I feel that I can be completely honest, and I see the same on his end as well, and I thank GOD because he has made each one of us so special, that it's just damn right AMAZING!!! I feel so grateful!!! What the future holds?!?!?!...I dunno...All I know is..."I am in the PERFECT place, at the PERFECT time, for me and my Goals, and Desires to manifest for me TODAY!!!...I truly believe that for each and every one of us!!! I know that we support and love each other greatly and want to see each other be the people we so truly desire to be and actually watch each other turn into those beautiful butterflies! !!!

....ON THE WORK FRONT: ..well, work is just that. Work in the day. I am handling the stress of my day job at the interior bathroom design company much better. I find that they are trying to make little tasks easier for me daily, and aiding to find me help when needed. It's really that much better. I am soooooo appreciative to have a stable job in which pays all my bills so that I can build my DREAM Hypnotherapy practice around my full time job!!...I am truly blessed. On the other hand, about 2 1/2 weeks ago, 3 weeks ago, I got written up at work for poor performance, which made me realize that I need to be ontop of my game and really show gratitude. That's really what spiraled it as well. Not to mention the fact, that it inspired me to WORK MY ASS OFF IN MY PRIVATE PRACTICE!!..so one day, I can have the choice of leaving my day job for my full time passion!...Soon enough...soon enough!!!

.....but YES!!!.....speaking of my Private Practice....Dun Dun DUn.... It's going FANTASTIC!!! Better than I ever dreamed of and faster than I could possible dream of as well!! (well, almost. I do have a pretty Vivid imagination!) ...but yes,....

....I started seeing clients about 7 weeks ago...and I have had a total of about 42 client hours!!! ...Can you believe that...PART TIME!!!!! ...I see clients right after work, literally just drive over there...and whala!..I vent what I need to in my medium long drive over there...It's perfect, with the windows down, and the air splashing on your face...and the music bumping as I repeat my AFFIRMATIONS with deeeeeep breaths...and BAMMMMMMMM....The JOY of LIFE is BACKKKKKKKK!!!! Simple as that. I mean, no that it left...just that ...it's REALLY within the core of your cells by that time!!!

.....I got my first PAYING CLIENT $$$$ about 2 weeks ago on Saturday, and in these 2 1/2 weeks, I have got 7 paying clients, which have amounted to an EXTRA $775 in the past 2 weeks!!!..:cheers2:.This past Monday, was another break through for me. I was offering a 3 series sessions for $100 flat first session. I got 5 of those. Monday, I got my first ONE TIME session for $75 flat!!...My client was a PRO BONO when she came in and at the end of the session said it was the BEST SESSION she's had by farrrrrrr and Whipped out a check for $75 after she asked my fees for the hour.....Faster than I think, I am BOOKED tight. This week alone, PART TIME,...I have 8 clients!!! I'm SOOOOOOO Grateful God has blessed me!!! :jump:...this is only the beginning too. I graduate at the end of April and had originally set my goal to start charging then, not so soon!! I'm fascinated at how much passion is flowing out of me!!! It's unbelievable!! Ive been going to networking mixers, and I went to 1 and got 3 paying clients from it! I also went to one SPEED NETWORKING mixer. Kinda like speed dating! It was fun!! ha!!!...Met some great people! 3 minutes to talk each! haha...I find...That's all I need!! hahah!!! I got a referral for 2 other paying clients, and the other one was a pro bono who turned to paying. Today, I finished the 3rd session of two of my pro bono clients! They gave me the biggest hug...actually, each time...they LOVEEEE iT!!!...and now I'm getting referrals too!!!

...I can see so many positive changes...and I'm actually attracting all kinds of people who want to MARATHON train!! Can you believe that?!?! ..JUST MY FORTAYYYYYYYY...I love that!!...I have like 4 of them. They are doing Great as well...!!! One guy zoomed in 4 weeks, from not one block to 10 miles STRAIGHT!!!!..Can you believe it!!?!?! I can't even begin to tell you all the positive changes in clients that I see!! It really is ...Therapy on MYSELF as it is for them!!! I benefit just as much!

.....BIG DECISIONS: So,...I decided that it's TIME for me to move out of my MOMS..and get my own little GUEST HOUSE somewhere nice!! I've seen all kinds of them for an affordable price and the way I'm going, there is NO STOPPING ME!!..So I figure, it's NOW or NEVER! Honestly, it's been some tough deciding, because it meant that I was going to have to cut off my mom financially, BUT....if I don't do this for me NOW...I never will, and I can't live my life based on the repercussions of her past mistakes. That's the truth. She has a husband, who sometimes seems invisible financially,...and has been that way for a minute. Because she let's him. And that's just not got to be my problem anymore. I feel unsatisfied here, in the sense that I have to be quiet at the time I get home cause everyone is sleeping and that's my time to do my SHIT...and if I can't and have to tip toe around..WTF?!?! I can't get shit done...and honestly, I have a lot to do!!!...So at the end of story, I'm tired of people having the opportunity including her, to make me feel unwelcome somewhere (which she does by kicking me out all the time verbally)..and I have to LIVE LIFE FOR ME!!! I just always felt bad for her, and my little 4 year old brother. But hey, like I said, I have to think of me.
...besides...How can I help her, if I can't help myself first?...First, you pull yourself out of the drowning cup of water,...then you go back to save the others!!...You can't pull you and someone else out at the same time!!! It's just too much pressure sometimes.

....at least for me, right now. She doesn't know, yet, but I'm ready and financially able to move out, and I'm not going to tell her because every time I talk about it...BAM..breakdown of tears on her end. More because of the money. But....oh well. I want to build my practice and my life in PEACE. And I feel free and happy:Angel_anim: just thinking about it, sure it's gonna be hard, and everyone is gonna have their two cents about it,...but WHAT ABOUT ALTA?!?!?! ...yeah...that's where I'm at. It's decided. Now, I'm just waiting for the PERFECT place for me to be able to live and even do HOME hypnotherapy sessions as well and feel WELCOME in my OWN HOME...is going to MANIFEST for me!! I can't wait!!!!! Home sweet home,...here I come!!!

..On the exercise front: Well, the past week and a half,...I've been BACK!!!!!!!!!!! Tonight I just weighed myself and it said 154.5 lbs
...So, I'll take it. This afternoon it said, 157.25 lbs after eating lunch at the gym real quick, and tonight it said the LOWER number! I'll take that for motivation!!...Last week I was at 158.5!! Tom just left though, yesterday so ...it's natural for the ups and downs. I'm exercising mainly during the week, when I am at my mom's at night! I get home SUPER late...and am dead beat tired EVERY DAY by that time! Especially, after working out. Can't wait to get back to my RUNNING mojo!! :D! Soon! Right now, I found my GYM mojo!!! haah!! :D!!!

...I am eating well throughout the week, and have been noticing that to differentiate the daily week from the weekend, I am eating junk on weekends and SUPER clean during the week! WTF!!! haha...It's a choice. One that is changing as we speak!..Control dammit! ...All in all...working out is BACK! I now as well, do TONS of side bends and sit ups, because Every Little MOTION adds UP to SUCCESS!!! Step by Step! That's all it takes!

....I've been living my life "AS IF I KNOW THAT I CAN NEVER FAIL AT ANYTHING I DO AND OR TRY!!! PUTTING MY BEST FOOT FORWARD and KNOWING that I WILL SUCCEED!!! SET BACKS OR NOT!!!!..Never quit. Never fail. Simple as that!...Winners aren't BORN...they are MADE! Fuck that! Do it right?!?! ..Yup! Do it!

...I have to keep focused on the goal!! The goal being constant daily accumulation of positive thoughts, acts, and beliefs in ALL AREAS of my life...and WHALA...manifestations!!! WE CAN ALL DO THIS!

...The Laws of REPETITION are based on a repetiton of 21 times to make a SUBCONSCIOUS habit! That's how I ran the MARATHON and that's how I'm trying my damn best to live my life! Step by Step and in the PRESENT moment!...Throw your INTENTION for the future out,...Focus ATTENTION on today, though!

Change Your PERCEPTION & You'll change your life!!!!

...I miss you all and come on here sometimes to take a quick peak at what you all write me, cause I have no time to respond back. It sucks, but soon, I hope to have more time when I move out! Somehow, but I will find it!!! Just so you all know though, you all move me greatly! To tears of joy, laughter, caring and sadness and sympathy and empathy sometimes. You are ALL so special. Words can't describe. Time is there...it's just not occupied efficiently most of the time we'll find....For me though, that time would be Sundays. THANK YOU TO EACH ONE OF YOU WHO READS MY JOURNAL OR WHO RESPONDS TO ME!!! YOU ALL MEAN THE WORLD!! If I don't write back,...please don't think It's because I don't care...it's more than that...I LOVE YOU!!!...Thank you for taking the time to read and write back!

...I ADORE you all...and I feel SO SPECIAL to see how many of you even care for me,..but it's not a wonder at the same time...BECAUSE I LOVE YOU ALL!!..:beating:.and if my Arms could go through this SCREEN right now.."I'd hold your hand." :D....You all are my blanket of comfort. Thank you for that warmth. BLESS YOU GUYS!!! ...realize that you are perfect, and a step is just part of the journey. That's where happiness lies. Keep doing! ...those are all the things I tell myself! :grouphug:

Hi Alta my sweet lovable friend. I didn't just have my hand held. I felt a great big hug! Thank you so much for taking the time for me. That made me feel so special & really loved. Moving into a place that is yours sounds like a great idea. Time for you Alta, just you. You have so much to give & are such a generous loving soul that you must remember to save some loving & nurturing for yourself. Your energy & enthusiasm never ceases to amaze (& exhaust) me!! Sending you a big Aussie hug right back to you Alta :grouphug: xoxoxoxoxo Cate
 
Hey alta :) glad to see you so happy and positive. Congrats on the loss and i'm glad you and your bf are doing better. As for your mum you're totally right, you have to put yourself first at some point and i'm sure your mum loves you and wants that for you at heart. Keep up the positive thinking and the hard work. xx
 
I also think it's a great idea to get a place of your own! Alta time is exactly what you need! Your mom will understand - it might take her a while but eventually she will realize it's what's best. Congrats on getting your gym mojo back - can't wait to smash some more pounds with you and get into the 140's!! I love all that you have accomplished so far this year with work and we are only in the first quarter still!! Lots of time to reach some more goals! Keep up the positive attitude and thanks for sharing the long update - it was terrific! Have a wonderful weekend!!
 
Awww ....thanks guys!! :grouphug:!!

I went to look at a place this weekend, and it was FANTASTIC!! :) I loved it, but I wish it had an extra room!..still deciding and looking at tons of places...I had a hypnotherapy session this weekend for me, and I couldn't help but cry :cry: in my session when I visualized the gratitude and love when I walked into my OWN place!!! :beating:!

It was great! I honestly think that for some reason, this weight is attached to all of this...the fact that I don't have my own space, sometimes makes me think that the fat around me is what I feel is like my own space. Of fat. I'm now ready to leave the space of fat, for a PLACE of fitness and love.

I took my bf with me too check it out and he is happy for me. I know the perfect thing will pop up for me. :D!!

...I did choose wine alternatives this weekend instead of beer, and I'm happy about that. Stayed ok with portions, and had some chocolate though. I guess cause it's kind of nerve wreaking to have so many mental changes going on.

...I'm going to a mixer tomorrow, and plan to make tons of envelopes to market myself with. I want to go to run tonight. I hope to get it in. Oatmeal and water for me all day at work today. :(

I hope you find a place soon because I totally think you need that extra space for you! And I totally agree it will help with reaching your weight loss goals! You must be so excited! I love it that you and your hunnie are getting along so well too - that must feel great! Hope you had fun at the mixer and got some new clients too. You deserve so chocolate so don't feel guilty! I'm sure you still did good this week! Keep it up Alta - looking good!
 
Looks like you're having a good week Alta :) congrats on finding a new place you really like.

I think EVERYONE seems to have deviated from the diet a bit this weekend but as long as we're all back on track now no worries.

Have a good day :) xx
