I have to live for me. I have to do what I need to do for me, and I have stopped concerning myself with what people say.

Although some people will say it's a cliché, I think not having had a father when I was growing up affect me negatively because I didn't have a good role model to follow.

I do not love to work out, but if I stick to exercising every day and put the right things in my mouth, then my diabetes just stays in check.

A person's self-esteem has nothing to do with how she looks.

I've learned my tricks. I know what I like. I do not wait around. I initiate. And I'm not all about frequency - I favor intensity.

When an opportunity comes your way, it's about making sure you're prepared to be the one who can walk through the door and deliver the goods. And I've had a lot of luck on my side and I've been prepared for that luck.

I am so ready to be a mommy. I can't wait. I notice every little baby dress, every little baby toy, every little baby thing.
