Dreams do come true. If anyone's proof of that, it's me.

I am completely in charge of the choices I make about what I am doing to lose weight and get healthy. And you know what? We all have this power. Don’t be angry with me for something good I’ve done for myself. Be angry with yourself for not having the courage to do the same in your own life.

If you're asking yourself why I have this success and you don't, don't be angry with me-stop and ask yourself what your issues are that are holding you back.

I didn't start singing with my eyes open until I was 19 - that's how shy I was!

I love being outside and feeling free, so I jog or ride my bike. Some days I play basketball or tennis.

It can be a real struggle to accept that sometimes appearance can be more important than talent or intelligence.

You can’t make a life-altering decision for someone else and expect it to stick.
