One-liners you don’t want to miss:

“It seems so clear now, but I guess back then you are pushing through. You know you aren’t making the right choices but you go okay it’s just one choice here and one choice there and you forget that it is all adding up.” 

“I was 108kg and I went I’ve got to change the course of my life and the only way I can do is by becoming fit and healthy. So that old thing of when you really want something and you believe you want something you will start to do anything to achieve that. Prior to that I wanted to lose weight and be fit and healthy, but did I truely believe that I wanted it? Maybe, not sure. But when I landed in Singapore I truely understood that is what I wanted and needed.” 

“It can be a virtuous cycle or it can be a vicious cycle.”
