Saw this in the latest issue of Prevention Mag, and it made me think of the recent thread on
overweight women (no source citation on the data, unfortunately):

62% of American women are overweight, compared to 67% of American men.

77% of overweight women believe that they are overweight, while 23% believe their weight
is normal.

This 23% are the really huge cows that weigh over 300lbs, and say "Big is beautiful" or "I'm a BBW
baby". Truly sad that they cannot afford mirrors.

I can relate to this -- I knew I was overweight before I started running, but didn't think I was
that fat. And I *was* looking in a mirror. Now, I look back at pictures from 2+ years ago, and can
clearly see the truth -- I was fat.

(of course, now that I'm 6-1, 160-165, I *still* think I'm a little chubby, the pendulum has swung
the other direction)
