I always laugh because if I walk through the mall in my gym clothes a ponytail I get recognized but if I'm in street clothes or dressed up not very many people notice.

It is hard for women not to be overly self critical, I am no exception!

Look at the home makeover shows. It isn't realistic to tear down a house, rebuild it, and decorate it in less then a week, but there aren't people out there criticizing those shows.

I do not have a genetically "gifted" body. I have to work hard everyday and I am always working on maintaining a positive self image.

I believe becoming healthy and working out saved my life by giving me the confidence and self worth to achieve my goals.

Many people on the street recognize me and are so positive...I am extremely passionate about helping others get healthy and I never feel bothered when fans stop and want to talk.
