I gained, like, 20 pounds in, like, two and a half, three weeks. So I just got too big too fast, and my body wasn't adjusted to that.
When I feel stressed, I turn to food for comfort, but I don't like to diet and I'm not good at it.
I was compulsively overeating when I was eight years old.
I realized that in those nine seasons I started out at about 225 pounds and I felt, you know, full figured fabulous woman but in those seasons I gained 75 pounds up to over 300 pounds all in front of the nation.
Ninety percent of people who lose weight gain it back. It's very sad.
I've always been a big guy - I was much larger and stronger than my peers when I was 13 years old.
While I was never diagnosed with anorexia or bulimia at the time, I've learned that starving myself and bingeing means I had both.
Depriving yourself will, ironically enough, lead to rebelling and weight gain.
But I enjoyed getting sick, I didn't mind it at all. So in that short amount of time, I did actually go from 121 right back up to 180, which is way too fast obviously. And that resulted in some doctors visits to get things sorted out.
I'm naturally greedy and would end up the size of a house if I ate all I wanted all of the time.
Let's face it: Russell Crowe is fat and no one ever talks about it.
I was so unhealthy. I used to go to 'Cold Stone Creamery,' get a tub of Butterfinger ice cream, and eat it all before bedtime. And my fingers were permanently stained orange from Cheetos.
I get so busy that I forget to eat, and that's really hurt me in the past. I gained weight from that.
Because I was always a fat child, I got fatter and fatter, and I ended up 18 stone and with a 40-inch waist.
I was short and fat as a child.
I put on weight like Santa Claus. I just get this belly that kind of extends out.
I gain weight and lose it again in inevitable cycles.
I used to play in the front row, I could eat whatever I want - but I got up to 97 kilograms. And let's remember I'm five foot bloody nothing!
I'd lie in bed in my dormitory and grab at bits of my body, wanting to tear them off... I was so large by then that, in the heat, my thighs chafed together and bled. I was very unhappy, and yet no one ever asked me how I felt.
All my life I've had a weight problem. As a child, I loved to eat. I would hide from my mother and drink whole cans of condensed milk in my room.
I eat like no other; it drives everyone crazy. I eat donuts three times a day, and I probably go through four Mountain Dews a day. I'm on, like, a sugar high at all times, pretty much.
