Ninety percent of people who lose weight gain it back. It's very sad.

People spend thousands in therapy digging and digging in the past. When you dig and dig, you find relics. Try to forgive yourself and get back on that ride.

Yeah, but I do call them back and follow up. Most people talk at overweight people, I talk with them.

That's what the majority of people in the world do, they walk among the ruins of their life. Things that didn't work out, relationships that went sour, jobs that disappeared. All they can think about is their ruins, and when you focus on that you can't build a new you.

When I was growing up, I did not exercise at all. I was raised in the French Quarter in New Orleans. If I saw someone running, I would call the police because I thought they stole something on Royal Street.

My life is just a never-ending work in progress.

The real pride, the real present, is your health and your longevity.
