balls care difficult education focus gather god good invented laugh life liking people preach start taking teach themselves
When you gather up all the balls of life that you try to juggle, it is a very difficult thing to try to focus in on taking good care of yourself.

I'll tell you who makes me laugh, in a good way, and I'd love to have a date with her: if I could just have a salad with Lady Gaga? This would be my - I would almost probably faint.
You are one of a kind and unique. Never forget that.
bypass clown court eat emotional hospital melted people time work
My way is the sensitive, emotional way, because that's who I am. I try to be the clown and court jester and make people laugh. At the same time, you have people in the hospital who have had gastric bypass or lap-band surgery, and they still have to work out. If you don't work out and eat healthy, you'll look like a melted candle.
anyone cosmetic order people
I think it is very important that you like yourself for who you are and not want to look like anyone else.

And there is nothing wrong with looking like you.

workout real thinking
There is no magic milkshake or workout machine. I think the real machine is your body. I do love treadmills, ellipticals, stationary bikes, free weights.
names machines bigs
I've been offered big money to promote machines. And high-protein diets, when that was really popular. There was always some new powder or diet plan that somebody wanted to put my name on.
