Happy Birthday, Fatso!

Tonight, I gave myself an early surprise birthday present:  I stepped on a scale.  I am now, for the first time ever, officially overweight. Happy Birthday/New Year’s, you big cow! 

For 2011, I’m going to lose 20 and 11 pounds.  That’s the goal.  We’ll see.  I’ve never really lost weight before, but then again, before I was 21, I was underweight and couldn’t gain a pound no matter what I did. 

Eff, this is NOT going to be easy, but it absolutely needs to be done.  I’m so ashamed that I just watched my slender body expand to this size over the years, fully expecting it to either stop or reverse itself on its own.  Soooo stupid.
