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 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.

I have a child to feed and a spirit that can't be crushed, so I'm able to move ahead.

I decided that it's either, you know, if I want to have children, have a family and - and live a long life, I've got to make some real, real serious changes.

There's a huge emotional component to weight loss.

I used food as a coping mechanism for many, many years, and it was my best friend for a long time.

I am stuck in the 70's. I can't seem to get away from that era.

I always think I am one of the millions and millions of people that struggles with an addiction to food. I don't know how to relax, that's my problem.

I realized that I have to slow down. I work so hard, I'm so busy.

When my work gets crazy, I make sure to always have vitamins, water and proper food with me. That has helped me to lose 33 pounds.

The most important thing I think we need to remember is that we're a work in progress. Do not be ashamed or afraid to ask for help. That's what I did. I asked for help.
