I started thinking: 'Okay, what's wrong with wearing a bikini? I look better than I looked in quite a few years, so why not? What am I afraid of?

I thought, If I'm so afraid of a bikini, there's something wrong. And so I had to get back into one!

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

I've earned all these years on my face. I don't want to be a liar if in five or 10 years I do get some Botox, but needles in the face scare me, so I don't really know if I am ever going to do that.

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.

A bikini bottom is not much different from what we're wearing. A few inches of flesh isn't going to make a difference.
