Leap...and the net will follow

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

Any partying I did, I did at home. I didn't want to be in the spotlight... There's an easy way to get away from the paparazzi; they're not that difficult to hide from and you don't need to go out for coffee every five minutes.

People come up to me and tell me how I changed their life and I've inspired them. And they tell me their stories, and that keeps me going.

I'm excellent at losing weight, but I've never been excellent at maintenance. I have some better days than others in terms of being hypervigilant, but with maintenance you don't know if you've been good at it until you're done.

If you say you're fat, all of a sudden people like you!

Divorce isn't the child's fault. Don't say anything unkind about your ex to the child, because you're really just hurting the child.
