I hid myself in food.

I like food. I like eating. And I don't want to deprive myself of good food.

I have always maintained a high level of fitness and that is why I am still able to handle the demands of playing in the Premiership. People have always commented on my fitness and it's something I pride myself on.

I'm enjoying myself this year and for once I'm not chasing my fitness.

People may say I developed an iron will but what really happened is that I made myself much fitter. I think an iron will is always supported by fitness.

With both kids I started working out again at 16 days postpartum but I treated myself with kindness doing mild workouts because my fitness level was lower.

I'm not in the best shape but I want to prove to myself I can do something that seems insurmountable and inspire others by showing them no matter where they are in their fitness goals they can do it too.

If I don't feel confident about my body I'm not going to sit at home and feel sorry for myself and not do something about it. It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up motivating yourself and just doing it.

I'm looking for backing for an unauthorized auto-biography that I am writing. Hopefully this will sell in such huge numbers that I will be able to sue myself for an extraordinary amount of money and finance the film version in which I will play everybody.

I've always supported myself. I like the sense of knowing exactly where I stand financially but there is a side of me that longs for a knight in shining armor.
