I hadn't weighed myself for a long time, until this morning. Before I stepped on the scale I was thinking "I could be a good 5 lbs down!" Instead, I was 1 lb up.

I have this strange perception that I am much lighter than I really am. I know my weight, but I don't think of myself as being THAT overweight. I am big-boned and always say that my bones are full of lead. Most women are much more delicate in structure than me, though I do think I'm still quite feminine looking. I say I'm from "farmer's stock". I could definitely kick butt.

I have been much more physically active lately and sweating frequently. That makes me feel like I should be losing weight, but I'm not. I'm definitely not tracking any calories. I guess I am still eating too much of the wrong stuff, but I sometimes forget what I've eaten.
