One day I may be meeting you and hearing how you've changed your life by saying, "Farewell to Fat".

I'm the clown you take out of the box and wind up when you need a good laugh. And then, when you're done with me, I go back in my box.

What if you can't do what you once did, like run and jump up and down? You can walk, which is also good for your mind and mental attitude. You can do simpler exercises, like getting up and down from a chair without using your hands. You can stay fairly flexible. The most important thing is to not become sedentary.

I was born with a crippled leg. I wore a corrective shoes since I was three years old and I still wear them.

When I lost my weight, I went and bought about 15 different types of underwear to see what would look good on my new body. It's exciting!

Back in the 70s and 80s, women felt the discrimination of being overweight. And now 35% of the letters I receive are from men.

I don't talk about my personal life, and I don't talk about death.
