I have two beautiful children and my husband. The perfect day for me is just to be with them and have fun. We like simple things, you know.

I always cringe when people tell me they don't eat breakfast, as though that's a good thing. Eek! You have to start the day off with something in your stomach to get your metabolism active.

I'm addicted to a really tough workout. I like to be drenched in sweat when I'm done because I feel accomplished.

I've been with 'Days of Our Lives' for 21 years, and I've decided this year is going to be my last year.

I wasn't eating the right kinds of calories. I didn't know about healthy carbs such as brown rice and lentils. Now I eat small meals throughout the day: oatmeal with cinnamon to start, fruit and yogurt as a snack, and vegetables or with chicken or tuna, and a healthy carb, like a yam, for lunch.

Especially with me working in the entertainment industry, I think my kids are aware of weight and fat much earlier than other kids. It was important to me from the beginning to make sure they understand things like why too much sugar is bad for you, etc.
