Day 7 detox - weighin day

Well I did have an 'event' but as to whether that was IT or not ... hmmm, I'm not sure. It certainly didn't look anything like that picture! lol As the title says I'm onto day 7 of the detox with two more days to go (I did 4 buildup days of diet only)

Ok enough of that subject ... As for my weighin this week ...

I lost ...









Bringing me to my lowest weight this time round and another goal achieved ... I'm officially at the exact same start weight that I was last time round. Although this could be construed as a negative point I choose to make it a positive. For this journey so far everytime I've made any achievement something in the back of my brain tells me "yeah, but you still haven't started yet". Now I am truelly on my way to goal!

I've joined up with a local weighin group called the 'piglets playgroup'... cool name huh? They meet every Wednesday morning at someone's house to weighin in and get measurements taken. So it's a great way to keep up my accountability. The lady who organises it told me today that in the 8wks it's been going NO ONE HAS HAD A GAIN!!! Sheesh that's a lot to live up to! Think I'm gonna have to step it up a notch! But I feel excited in saying that. Time to get down and get dirty!!!

We received Lauren's midyear report in the mail this morning. And it was a glowing report, one that I was very proud to read!! Except for one thing ... it said she had been absent for 11 days this year and three of her subjects had the words 'attendance concern' listed. I went into complete panic mode, calling Bill down to the shop to see. We both looked at eachother and realised that our 'good girl' was starting some bad habits. I mean this could lead onto other things ... smoking, stealing ... who knows what else??

Bill suggested we ring the school and get the exact days she was absent then sit her down when she got home and have a very stern talk with her. As Bill got off the phone with the school, he burst into laughter. What's so funny?? It was a computer glitch! Apparently the computer was randomly throwing in absent days for some students. They had been inundated with phone calls from concerned parents just like us! What a relief!! For a moment there I had thoughts my daughter was turning into a backyard junkie at just 12yrs old!

So now that panic attack is over life can get onto normality again!!
