After all the throwing up, I would starve myself. Which meant eating lettuce and water for two and a half months. I almost lost my life.

No tricks, gimmicks, special pills, special potions, special equipment. All it takes is desire and will.

I never sold any of those "lose 10 pounds every week" scams. I've not changed my tune in all these years. I've seen everything pass by me, and I've been offered millions of dollars to put my name on products that were just lies. And I never did it.

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.

This is my theater. This is where I can sing and act out a play and do sit-ups at the same time

I was always into staying busy, into my goals, into making notes and planning. I'm not one who truly lives in the past.

If people confront me with certain questions, if they are not right, I will not answer them.
