I feel like I have been totally blessed with everything that I have done.

I never want to try to be a spokesperson for health and wellness because I most definitely am not the most in shape person in the world.

I've been blessed because there are a lot of great singers out there that didn't make it past their first album.

I'm not in the best shape, but I want to prove to myself I can do something that seems insurmountable and inspire others by showing them no matter where they are in their fitness goals, they can do it, too.

The only thing about my life that's really changed is the fact that a lot of people know me now. I'm still the same person.

I mean I've always been a big dude.

My mother always taught me, even my dad, just never let other people's opinions of you shape your opinion of yourself. And I never have and I never will.
