In #‎ France we have a saying, 'Joie de Vivre,' which actually doesn't exist in the English language. It means looking at your life as something that is to be taken with great pleasure and enjoy it.

Of course there are fat French women. There are fat people everywhere.

When I grew up in France, I was a normal size. And then I came to the United States and I gained 20 pounds.

French women don't have too many clothes - a few good pieces that last for a while and are classic and timeless.

Taking care of your mental and physical health is just as important as any career move or responsibility.

My friends say everything I touch turns to gold. I'll say, 'I've been very lucky.

If you believe you can shed pounds quickly by force of will and deprivation, you will in all likelihood not only regain the ones you lost, but add a few more besides.
