kids faces body
When I talk to kids who are overweight, I see my face on their bodies.
thinking trying body
I am kinder to my body. I don't try to prove anything to myself or others. I keep thinking about the need to go slower, gentler and maintain a sense of humor about it all.
moving love-you body
If you want to get the body you've always dreamed of, you have to earn it. You can't buy it, you can't rent it. You have to earn it. My formula has always been love yourself, move your body, watch your portions. And it sounds so easy, but it is not.

If you want to get the body you've always dreamed of, you have to earn it.

Most workouts are way too aggressive. Thousands of lunges wear out the body.

gained god instill motivator others weight
I used to think that if someone gained their weight back, it was my fault, but all I can do is be God's motivator and try to instill the motivation in others so they do it themselves.
There are sacrifices you have to make. I don't have a lot to offer one person. I have a lot to offer to a lot of people.
crazy funny laughing silly talking
I show them the funny part, the silly part, the laughing part, the crazy part and then the really deep, deep part where I'm talking from my heart to these people. Because I've been through everything they've been through.
