I liked animals more than people! OK, I liked certain people, but the idea of mankind'-it really irritated me!

I was really tired of words like 'plus size,' 'round' and 'large.' I thought, 'Come on, we're fat.'

I binge when I'm happy. When everything is going really well, every day is like I'm at a birthday party.

When you're the spokeswoman for a weight-loss program, everything is witnessed. I weigh in once a week with a witness. I have to sign an affidavit saying I cannot have any surgeries.

There's always somebody older, richer, more desperate than you.

I don't believe you have to have eating disorders and mental illness to screw up.

If we worried half as much what others are doing for us and spent twice as much time helping others, we would all be exponentially happier.
