I try to break a sweat every day. It doesn't always happen that way, but that's the goal.
I get really bad plane bloat. Your body and your face and everything swells. I could never get rid of it. It stays with you.
I'm a diligent person, and that came directly from having hardworking parents.
At first, the idea of doing a 90-minute workout in a 40 degree room sounded like torture. But the sweating is exactly what I became addicted to. My body changed dramatically almost immediately. Within three classes, I noticed less belly fat. My knees and legs are stronger than ever now; my arms have definition for the first time in my life; and my posture is much, much better. I also feel completely energized from all of the deep breathing. I leave class relieved of any anxiety I went in with, and the sweating and detoxifying make my skin feel great.
I really like listening to music when I'm hiking or exercising. I don't like hearing myself breathe.
Eating apples is good on so many levels. There's fiber in the skin that's really good for you. It helps with digestion and helps you absorb all the nutrients of everything you've eaten that day. Apples are a really good thing.
I'd never planned on being a model.
