I'm proud to represent the average woman.

If you’re not eating the right foods in the right amounts, all the exercise in the world won’t combat the caloric intake.

To me, the biggest notes and the longest notes are the easiest notes.

I was brought up singing gospel, and I really enjoy getting the church up on their feet, their hips swaying, their hands clapping, it's a great feeling to evoke that energy for the Lord.

I try to do everything to say, 'OK, will my mother like this? Will she be pleased? Will she be proud of that? How do I know she's happy and she's smiling down at me from heaven?' And that's what I try to go by and walk by.

When someone wants to lose weight, they will do whatever it takes. They can’t do it for anyone else but themselves. It has to be for them alone. Without that understanding, they will fail.

Well, I don't really eat cereal that much because on Weight Watchers it's not worth the points.
