Being on one crutch to no crutches is a huge difference.

I want to be known for my athletic achievements, not my celebrity.

The Olympics are what I work for. They're why I spend so much time in the gym.

I don't know if I'll ever get used to the idea that strangers know who I am. I don't know if I want to.

I went from being married to living on my own in L.A., to having a new boyfriend and just being totally self-sufficient and super independent. It's awesome. I love it!

I never felt sidelined, I was supported by my friends, my family and my team. I always knew I could do it. I had confidence in myself.

When you're young, you develop ways to win, and you think they will always work, but then you get to the top, competing against the other top athletes, and sometimes things don't work.
