Ain't that the truth!!....this month I have felt like I was stuck in a rut with no GUT IN MY BUTT!..LOL.. sorry thats a term in Kentucky that we use for someone who is stuck. I was stuck on a certain weight that would not change. 4 weeks in a row of weighing 190.2 lbs and I was mortified!! How in the world could I not lose weight? I was working out at least 2 days a week... I was anal about recording all my food intake but it just wouldn't take. Now I'll admit I'm not perfect...there were a couple days where I casually managed to not record my food intake. And it may have been on certain days where I did so happen to eat out. However, I gave my Weight Watcher's counselor my 3 month food planner so she could see my eating habits. Maybe I was eating too many carbs...maybe I wasn't being totally honest with myself.. I couldn't figure it out.

Then last Monday I had the experience I sometimes have when I'm at church, listening to a sermon and I feel the preacher speaking to me. Only this time it wasn't a preacher, it was my WW counselor Kim. And she basically said.. 'quit making excuses for why you can't lose weight'... I felt like she was talking to me. I was fixing to visit the doctor 4 days later just to prove that I couldn't lose weight due to my darn thyroid. But unfortunately for me the Doctor decided not to test that. So guess I had no one to blame but myself. So after that 'sermon' last Monday night I was determined that I was going to lose weight even if it killed me!!!

So you're probably asking yourself, 'Amy did it kill you to lose weight this past week?'... LOL, well no dear blogger reader. I ate out 3 days this week, worked out 2 days this week and didn't touch my flex points until my 2nd to last day. I weighed myself on my scale at home, (which wasn't even accurate and almost talked myself out of attending tonight. And then Sucess!!.. It was wondrous...

Lesson learned...
