Size of Virtual Machine in Finder is Double the Size of VM Within Fusion

I'm running a Windows 7 Home Premium virtual disk in Fusion Professional 5.0.2; the host OS is 10.8.2. The size of the sparse disk is set to 40 GB. After defragmenting Windows and cleaning up the virtual machine, Fusion 5's General preferences pane shows the total size of the virtual machine as 33.2 GB. I have no snapshots. The problem is that the size of the virtual machine as shown in the Finder is 70.56 GB. My off-site backup drive is full and I'm trying to reduce the size of the backup set. How can I shrink the size of the virtual machine as shown in the Finder to correspond to the size of the virtual machine as shown within Fusion? Thanks.
