I've got this old-school workout - push-ups, sit-ups, tricep dips. And it worked. Anybody can do this at home.
I have obsessed about my weight in some sort of way all my life. I used to write in my journal what I weighed every day.
I've realized that I'm more important than food is. I love a big slice of pizza, but I love myself more. Being thin is about changing the way you think about yourself. It's about saying that you deserve to be healthy.
As an emotional eater, I eat to soothe.
The only things I really love about myself physically are my ankles and my hair.
My eyes aren't special, my nose isn't special, my mouth isn't special.
I kept buying bigger and bigger jeans, and once the size 14s got too tight, I thought: 'That's it. I'm not buying the next size'.
It took me years after stopping the cocaine before I was able to enjoy a sunrise and enjoy the sound of birds.
Once a food becomes off-limits, then it takes on this whole other personality. Forbidden is more tempting. And it becomes something evil, but food is food. Its there to nourish your body.
I think a lot of people think because I was getting the divorce, that was really the catalyst for gaining so much weight.
