Hi Mam!! Aww thanks for stopping by!! I appreciate it! :) Posting has really kept me on track for SO long!!


Just commit and make it happen! :)
 
Life has SERIOUSLY changed for me SO much! You have no idea how amazing of a journey this has been & still is for me! A year and 2 months ago, I decided,..."hey! I'm becoming a Beachbody coach" because I loved the p90x!!


God has been SOOOOOO good to me since!! I am helping & supporting SO MANY people now & inviting them into challenges. The relationships in my life have COMPLETELY transformed, and I wake up to emails from people telling me I inspire them! Similar to what we all do here on this site....

<3 This is where I started. This is where my heart is. This is where I will always remain as well. <3


The only difference is that now, ... I make my living off of supporting people online! I swear, if someone would have told me this in 2008 when I joined this forum, I would have said "yea, right! I WISH!"


haha.


Life is good. 50lbs melted. And Life is GOOD. :Angel_anim: I have been starting NEW CHALLENGE GROUPS monthly on fb and have created such a beautiful team called "Team HYPNOTIC Nation" that is based off coaches that have come onto my team & we all pay it forward and coach in a big group together and challengers who want to do the programs p90x, Insanity, Turbo Fire, Shakeology, Rev Abs (which I JUST STARTED 5 days ago!!), p90x:2, Aslum, Body Beast & so on..& ...well, because I am a Hypnotherapist still, hence "Hypnotic"...LOL. I see clients 2 days a week, then the rest of my days I'm at home on my laptop doing just this!


Working out & getting paid for it. You have NO IDEA how many times I've sat and cried at my laptop in sheer GRATITUDE for the possibilities!


....Now... I still continue, yet want to help even MORE PEOPLE!!! <3 Because WHY? Because GOD is good. It feels good to live a happy life & I know this is my mission. I have been placed on this earth to support others. All those tears I have cried my ENTIRE life have been for this.


This is my PASSION. People are my purpose. Helping is in my heart. Supporting is in my blood. YOU, reading, are my REASON WHY.


If you want to JOIN MY JULY CHALLENGE... let's do it! :party:I'm still going on this journey.....

What do you say? Join me?
 
Here it is


I made a Transformation VIDEO!


Finally!!!!


I still get sad about where I was but OH well, I'm a new person. I totally fell off my boat for 3 days no exercise. Back at it!

Omg!! I love that!!! That's so amazing that you can help people. It's really all about giving back and that makes life SO rewarding!!


It's ok! We all fall off. Just until yeterday I got back to my Rev Abs program. I totally fell off for like 3 days. Now, I dont fall off as hard as before but it's still work, ya know?

What got you back ontrack this time? :) How are things at home?
 
Today... I woke up, & I was feeling DOWN. I was told that I wasn't accepted for the p90x2 test group. That threw me into sabotage mode the past 3 days. Yesterday I finally got up, but chomped on a big chicken nugget from 7-eleven a kit kat. :svengo:I'm telling you.


This fight NEVER ends. Just daily choices accumulate down the line....


I went on a 1 1/2 hour walk this morning and just found a peace in life again. <3 I missed my dog Otis that passed away in November of last year. I can't believe it's almost one year. I still cry over it on certain days, and think about him daily. I've been envious of people and their pets lately, but feel like I only want "him" back. I miss my Bulterrier.


Pre bkfst: 2 scoops fiber powder


Bkfst:

2 poached eggs, sprinkled with chia seeds and flax seeds

1/2 cup oatmeal cooked in water, sprinkled with chia seeds and flax seeds and shredded coconut


I'm going to the market to get anti inflamatory foods.


Tip# ----> Go to the market when full! It prevents you from putting unecessary crap in your cart. I've been guilty of "mind eating" at the market. LOL


TODAY I'm back to fighting!
 
Hi gorgeous! You have been on such a roller coaster sweetie that at times it is only natural to feel down. You have changed your life & transformed your body & are looking wonderful. You will bounce back Alta. This is only a temporary setback. YOU ARE AWESOME!! I know this for a fact. I, too have been down lately but have picked up again & feel more like my usual self. Life is good- REALLY good, but sometimes it just doesn't feel that way. You can't replace old pets with new ones, just like you can't replace people when they die. Go to the pound & you will found a new totally different dog who will win your heart & be well-loved. Pound dogs are the best! Sending you lots and lots of love, xoxo Cate

Cate! I totally love you!


You are SO right. It's just so easy to look at it negatively in those very moments, right? Me and my boyfriend have actually been thinking about another dog this weekend. Actually the same kind. A bulterrier. He was so amazing to us and so darn cute! This time I'll take 500 millon pics of him. <3


and I'm sorry you were feeling down, too, Cate. :( It's that time some days right? what can we do... this is what we call LIFE. oy!
 
Some days,...all I want to do is just support others on their journey and THAT's it.


But, I fight on my own journey as well. :) What really helps is that I constantly start new challenges and invite people with me, so that it holds me accountable!


I'm starting a new challenge Sept 3rd and taking names right now, "Get yo Sexy On!"


haha. <3
 
Hi sweetie, how are you going? Have you that new dog yet? Spring has sprung, here in Tassie, & I’m feeling good. It is such a great feeling when winter is behind you(but not literally, ie on my derriere) for another year! I have come out of winter less than I weighed before, mainly I think from riding my stationary bike most days. YAY! Hope you’re feeling good my friend,

~lots of love, xoxo Cate
 
Come back, Alta! I started the P90X today and I'm SO excited!


I hope you are ok and we'll hear from you soon. I'd love to hear how your new challenge has been going...

Omg Rox!! That's SO SO awesome!! I love that Program because it's the base of what really kicked my ass last year to get going again! How is your week 1 going?


The new challenge group is ROCKING it! I mean tons of them have melted over 10lbs including myself another 10lbs in the past 2 1/2 weeks! :)) I'm feeling leaner and stronger and so are they! It's SO rewarding to see them changing right along side with me. Tony Horton is funny right? :)


BRING it, Rox! How are all your crazy outings? ;) I sure miss me some stories! haha
