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

If I'm known as the girl that lost weight and it's been six years later and I've still kept off the 110 pounds, God bless. Because I never kept off 100 pounds before in my life.

I have willpower and determination. I am very resilient, like rock.

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.

I understand that I'm a role model.

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

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.
