I kept buying bigger and bigger jeans, and once the size 14s got too tight, I thought: 'That's it. I'm not buying the next size'.

I think a lot of people think because I was getting the divorce, that was really the catalyst for gaining so much weight.

Once a food becomes off-limits, then it takes on this whole other personality. Forbidden is more tempting. And it becomes something evil, but food is food. Its there to nourish your body.

The only things I really love about myself physically are my ankles and my hair.

We all have our painful pasts we have to get through.

I have faith in faith. God is there, whether we have faith or not, so why not have faith in him?

I'm a food addict, that's my downfall.
