My persona has always been what a man was never supposed to be. Outrageous, gregarious, crazy, silly, funny.

Every morning when I get up, I ask God what he wants me to do, ask him to lead me to the right people to help them.

Truthfully, everyone knows how to eat right. They know the difference between oatmeal and a jelly cream doughnut. They know how to walk. Everyone has this in their brain. When I started, we didn't have all this knowledge.

For 40 years, my formula has been to love yourself, move your body and to watch portion size. But the No. 1 thing is to love and value yourself, no matter what you've been through.

I consider myself a court jester - motivator.

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

When I go to teach, that's not my workout. It's my show. I'm 134 pounds - I'm a teeny thing. I work out 11/2 hours a day and eat 1,600 calories. I can't stray because I have to fit into these Dolfin shorts!
