So I've never in my whole life really been teased about my weight.

You have to learn that if you start making sure you feel good, everything will be okay.

If you eat good, you feel good. I would encourage every body else to do the same.

I just never let anything bother me, man. I know myself really well. Nobody's opinion of me can shake my opinion of myself.

And I just pray that god gives me longevity in the music industry.

I feel like my unwillingness to look for healthy options now is the reason why I have put my weight back on. … Everybody knows how to diet, everybody has had their shares of ups and downs of yo-yo diets, but the hardest thing is to learn really how to make this a lifestyle that you can sustain for the rest of your life.

But I also live to perform and I've been performing my whole life, whether it's been in sports or you know in band or with my singing.
