I SWEAR!!!  Truly, no reason &#8230;<br \/>\nAnd even though, I know that there is no real reason for this to be happening.  (Let me say it again, truly no real reason.  I&#8217;ve had a cold and have been barely eating!!! &#8230; Note the neuroses setting in.)<br \/>\nEven though, I know that it must be water weight, cold weather weight (the wind can make you weigh more), full moon weight &#8230; still that nagging voice a.k.a. my &#8220;Evil Twin&#8221; appeared.<br \/>\nWe all have an &#8220;Evil Twin&#8221; that pops up every so often who says stuff like, &#8220;Wow, you&#8217;re fat.&#8221; &#8220;Your face is unbelievably puffy today.&#8221; &#8220;You may as well eat the entire box of donut holes.&#8221;<br \/>\nWould you like to know how to quiet that voice?
