It just kills me when people buy a dog when there are dogs in shelters. I still get emotional when I think of Karl sitting in that shelter. I wasn't looking. I didn't even think I had time for a dog, and then I met this little one and he needed help. It's been so amazing to see him transform into a happy and confident companion.

Stop talking about tomorrow. You owe it to yourself to do whatever you can to live you can to live a better life today.

Even though you really don't feel like you're motivated to go to the gym, remember how good you felt after the last time you went. Keep that in the forefront of your brain.

I believe in the power of the human spirit.

Yoga is the fountain of youth. You're only as young as your spine is flexible.

You can't be a parent and say, 'I need you to be more active and I need you to eat right,' when you're still choosing to have poor eating habits.

I found that people like rules, and I love to tell people what to do. It's not rocket science when it comes to weight loss. It's about eating a little less and moving a little bit more.
