It's cold

It's cold, but sunny. After a surprise 6 inches of snow, sun is about all I can hope for!

You know, I have been heavy all my life. Not fat, but definitely a big girl. And it always surprises me when I see a picture of myself or catch a glimpse of my reflection, because I don't look at all the way I think I look (in my head).

Now I have gained more weight, so I have crossed the line from chubby to fat, but I still am surprised that it isn't Nic*le Kidm*n staring back at me from the mirror!

Just kidding, sort of. I am in the process of dieting and working out, but instead of the sexy blond or redhead I know I am, it's not what people see... ;-)

It doesn't help that the rest of my family is relatively small (weight-wise, we are all tall). And I wish that I didn't love pizza so much. Or cake. Or milkshakes. But I know what my weaknesses are and I am trying to do something about it.

Fingers crossed! This isn't a "New Year's Resolution," this is what I need to do to be healthy!
