“There's a huge emotional component to weight loss.”

“It's not just being overweight that's dangerous. Stress is dangerous.”

“I've had so much stress in the last year so it's really a struggle. I never hide, when I walk down the street, someone's going to take my picture, that's what I look like.”

“I always want more, and that's just my life.”

“It's normal to gain weight during pregnancy. It's something that has to happen to your body.”

“I am always cautious.”

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

“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.”

“Certain foods no longer agree with me. If I eat French fries, I might feel sick to my stomach.”

“I don't want to hide anything - there is nothing to hide.”

“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.”

“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.”

“I have to be a teacher to my daughters.”

“Becoming famous is a strange thing in your own right.”

“I wish I had more time to read. I do love books.”

“It's more about going to a place inside of me as a woman who knows that I'm never going to have perfection. And that I deserve to be healthy and feel healthy.”

“I don't want to become a diabetic.”

“I want to get into voice-overs.”

“Medication can help us live a happier life.”
