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.

Stop trying to find something in food that will make you feel better.

Number one, like yourself. Number two, you have to eat healthy. And number three, you've got to squeeze your buns. That's my formula.

I have been up to my head just with calling people, I call about 50 to 100 people a day.

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!

When I talk to kids who are overweight, I see my face on their bodies.

No one is perfect... absolutely no one. Like precious stones, we have a few flaws, but why focus on that? Focus on what you like about yourself, and that will bring you happiness and peace.
