There are days where I've lost weight and I feel bigger or fatter or uglier and I want to just hibernate. I'll find every excuse not to exercise. I hate it.
I started to put on weight when I was about four and a half and it got really bad when I was around nine. I ballooned. I was about 110 pounds.
I don't know how to relax, that's my problem.
I have willpower and determination. I am very resilient, like rock.
I am always cautious.
When you love food as much as I do, staying healthy is not easy. I mean, moderation, not deprivation. That's my new way of living. I always want more and that's just my life.
I did have reconstructive plastic surgery and a tummy tuck. And from hip to hip, there's a very big scar. It looks better than it did... So I say, if you don't like that skin, have it removed. This is my advice: if you're gonna do it - just go for it.
My husband and I are best of friends first and foremost. We fight like cats and dogs, but never stay mad for long. I was lucky to find him, he is in every way, my soulmate.
We need to eat and enjoy it but control it. That's what I do now.
I mean, moderation, not deprivation. That's my new way of living.
Certain foods no longer agree with me. If I eat French fries, I might feel sick to my stomach.
I never hide, when I walk down the street, someone's going to take my picture, that's what I look like.
Life presents itself in constantly changing ways, but you're able to accept the challenges, rather than recoil, throw up your hands, and go on a binge.
My fat cells have a memory like Einstein! I'm proof that surgery is not a magic potion. There are many ways to sabotage it.
I understand that I'm a role model.
I don't want to hide anything - there is nothing to hide.
I'm a working mother... You try to pay the bills, you try to keep your life going and there's pressure.
