I'm trying to teach my daughter about healthy eating.
It doesn't feel good when you have to struggle to get your pants on.
Medication can help us live a happier life.
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.
All I can do is listen to what my body needs and feels.

Certain foods no longer agree with me. If I eat French fries, I might feel sick to my stomach.
If someone puts too much pressure on me, I will automatically rebel.

I don't want to hide anything - there is nothing to hide.
I want to get into voice-overs.
I wish I had more time to read. I do love books.

Like everyone else, I have challenges.
We need to eat and enjoy it but control it. That's what I do now.
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.
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.
Was I a perfect gastric-bypass patient? Yes. Was I a perfect gastric-bypass pregnant woman? No. I made a decision to enjoy my pregnancy... So sue me!
I started doing yoga.
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 understand that I'm a role model.
I used food as a coping mechanism for many, many years, and it was my best friend for a long time.
It's such a rush doing a concert and seeing people actually mouthing the lyrics.
Sometimes reality T.V. can be stressful.
There's a huge emotional component to weight loss.
