Breast cancer is being detected at an earlier, more treatable stage these days, largely because women are taking more preventive measures, like self-exams and regular mammograms. And treatment is getting better too.

I know so many people who have battled breast cancer and they didn't all make it.

I've always been obsessed by beef jerky.

You know, I've virtually never been chatted up in my life, it's true.

It's all about portion control. Grilled fish, a small amount of wild rice and vegetables is a good meal.

I walk every day with my dogs and force myself to run a bit but I hate it.

I always wear make-up as I've never seen the point of looking less than your best.
