Carrie Fisher quote: "I have a harder time eating properly than I do exercising. It's easier for me to add an activity than to deny myself something. And when I do lose the weight, I don't like that it makes me feel good about myself. It's not who I am."

If my life wasn't funny, it would just be true, and that's unacceptable.
